The Lions have been forced into one change for their semi-final clash against the Waratahs on Saturday night.
Lourens Erasmus will start at openside with Cyle Brink unable to shake off an injury to his right arm in time to be named in the sudden-death clash.
Hacjivah Dayimani will replace Erasmus on the bench in the only switch up to the South African side to take on the Waratahs.
The Waratahs named their team for the semi-final on Thursday night, with Tolu Latu starting over Damien Fitzpatrick.
The Lions host the Waratahs in Johannesburg on Saturday July 28, kicking off 3:05pm local, 11:05pm AEST, LIVE onFOX SPORTS and via RUGBY.com.au RADIO.
