Their past encounters with Zimbabwe have yielded mixed results with their recent clash during last year’s Currie Cup First Division ending in a 22-21 narrow defeat.
“We are prepared for the game since we know how Zimbabwe plays. They are a good side and we can’t ignore what they bring to the table. We’ve been meeting at different stages and the scores were quite tight,” he said.
Simbas have played six matches so far and have only managed a 30-26 win over Border Bulldogs. Their recent loss was to Welwitschias where they were defeated 28-35 courtesy of a last gasp try.
They lost against table leaders EP Elephants 18-7, San Clemente Rhinos 33-22, and unfortunately gave away wins to Boland Kavaliers and Leopards via walkovers after arriving late for the first two matches.
