Fiji born, Red’s Captain, Samu Kerevi has been rested for their clash against the Chiefs tomorrow.
Kerevi has been rested in accordance with Rugby Australia’s workload management policy.
Coach Brad Thorn had hoped to rest Kerevi earlier in the season, but instead opted to push back his captain’s rest week as they targeted a rare win in South Africa.
The Chiefs have also been forced to reshuffle their side around for workload management reasons.
Test centre Anton Lienert‑Brown and prop Angus Ta’avao have been given the week off.
The Chiefs meet the Reds at 7.35pm tomorrow while the Brumbies face the Bulls at 9.45pm tomorrow.
On Saturday, the Sunwolves meet the Rebels at 5.15pm, the Crusaders take on the Blues at 7.35pm while the Waratahs meet the Jaguares at 9.45pm.
On Sunday, the Stormers will take on the Highlanders at 1.05am and the Sharks meet the Lions at 3.15am.
