Schoemies strengthens struggling Edinburgh

Pierre Schoeman will start for Edinburgh against the Stormers in Cape Town on Saturday, with another South African loosehead prop on the bench. The Scotland international returns from Six Nations duty, while Springbok Boan Venter provides cover among the replacements. Edinburgh are coming off a heavy 54-17 defeat to the Lions at Ellis Park, a result that dropped them to 13th on the Vodacom URC log. Coach Sean Everitt has made several changes to his side, boosted by the return of key internationals. Grant Gilchrist slots back into the second row, while Darcy Graham starts on the wing. Centre James Lang also returns from injury to partner Matt Currie in midfield. AFRICA PICKS: URC Round 14 – Betting preview “We know it will be a tough challenge on Saturday, but we’ve had a good training week and are in a good place to get a special result at the weekend,” said Everitt. “The Scotland guys being back is obviously a boost, but we’ll need everyone at the top of their game to turn over the Stormers on their own patch.” In the backline, Graham links up with Malelili Satala on the wings, while Piers O’Conor starts at fullback. Charlie Shiel partners Ross Thompson in a new-look halfback combination. Up front, Schoeman packs down alongside hooker Ewan Ashman and tighthead Paul Hill in a reshuffled front row. Gilchrist partners Marshall Sykes in the engine room, while Magnus Bradbury captains the side from No 8, flanked by Dylan Richardson and Liam McConnell.
