Share
JOHANNESBURG â Ivan van Rooyen won't cash in his chips in an effort to buy players for the upcoming season, the Lions head coach more than confident in his current squad and the exciting players the union is developing within its youth structures.
While the other franchises â the Bulls, Sharks and Stormers â have all gone to market with various degrees of aggression to bolster their squads, the Lions have been content to turn to their youth players in an effort to get them up to speed with the rigours of senior professional rugby.
