Albert Liebenberg - Griquas ready to embrace pressure in Lions semi-final

The Suzuki Griquas are bracing for a tough Currie Cup semi-final when they tackle the Lions in Kimberley on Sunday, with their sights firmly set on keeping their title defence alive. For the Griquas, it is a game in which they need to focus on themselves rather than the team they famously beat at the death in last year’s Currie Cup final at Ellis Park in Johannesburg. The Lions could stick with the side that has carried them into the semi-finals, or they could bolster their ranks with several United Rugby Championship players who recently featured against the All Blacks.
