South African rugby legend Ruan Pienaar will continue playing for the Cheetahs for another season, regardless of the outcome of Saturday’s Currie Cup final against the Pumas. Coach Hawies Fourie confirmed Pienaar’s contract extension for another year, citing his contribution as a calming presence in the team’s backline. The veteran player has 88 Test caps for the Springboks and led the Cheetahs past the Bulls in the semi-final with 22 points. Pienaar also played an instrumental role in the team’s triumph in the Guinness PRO14 last season, adding another trophy to his glittering career. The match officials for the two Currie Cup Finals have been confirmed, with the final between the Toyota Cheetahs and Airlink Pumas kicking off at 16:00 on Saturday at Toyota Stadium. The Boland Stadium will host the First Division Final between Boland Kavaliers and Valke, with kick-off scheduled for 13:00.
