Central role for Demetri as Kings take on Griquas

ALL eyes will be on Demetri "Greek God” Catrakilis when the Southern Kings play Griquas in their final pre-season warm-up rugby match at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium tonight (7pm).

Catrakilis, who has not played in any of the Kings’ pre-season friendlies because of a shoulder injury, was the biggest of the new Super Rugby franchise’s off-season signings and much is expected of him.

The polished 23year-old pivot arrived in Port Elizabeth on the back of his match-winning display in last season’s Currie Cup final at Kings Park when he led Western Province to victory over the Sharks.
