Heyneke Meyer ahead of SWD's clash against the Cheetahs

The South Western Districts Eagles will be hunting another major scalp this weekend when they take on the Toyota Cheetahs in George in round six of the SA Cup.

Meyer told OFM Sport that his side is still a work in progress and far from the finished article, and it’s import to focus on themselves.
