:Namibia have made seven changes to their starting line-up for their final Rugby World Cup Pool A match against Uruguay in Lyon on Wednesday, one of which has been forced through the absence of captain Johan Deysel.Coach Allister Coetzee has long targeted this fixture as the one to break his team’s unwanted record run of 25 consecutive losses in the World Cup since they made their debut in 1999. "It is up to us and how we are going to finish this one," Coetzee told reporters on Monday. "The players know what a win means for the country, it can change a lot.
So we will pitch up.He will miss experienced centre Deysel, who was red-carded in the 96-0 loss to France last week for a dangerous tackle on Antoine Dupont. "It's an unfortunate situation, I’m sure he would have loved to be captaining the last game, but I’ve got no doubt in my mind that Tjiuee (Uanivi) will do a great job," Coetzee told reporters on Monday. "He’s been captain before, he’s part of the leadership group and he’s an experienced player."The other changes are injury-enforced.
It’s tough to play four matches in 18 days for any tier-two country."Prop Johan Coetzee and wing Gerswin Mouton are therefore the only players to have started all four matches in France.Alcino Izaacs takes over at outside centre from Deysel, and will form a midfield pairing with Danco Burger.
