Lions sign Meyer on loan and confirm departures

The Lions have acquired the services of Griquas scrumhalf Christiaan Meyer on loan for the 2018 Super Rugby season.

Meyer is no stranger to the union having joined the union's academy after school. He spent two years at the union before joining the Griquas in 2016. 

The feisty halfback was in fine form during the Currie Cup. The Lions are expected to announce more acquisitions in the coming weeks.
