OXFORD will turn to guests after German star Erik Riss was ruled out by illness.
Nick Morris deputises for the Cheetahs in tonight's (Wednesday) BSN Series fixture against Plymouth at Cowley after Riss revealed an unexpected reoccurrence of the eye problem which has blighted him in recent seasons. Oxford team manager Peter Schroeck commented: “The most important thing is that we give Erik full support. “I’ve spoken to him and I know how gutted he is. His health and recovery come first and we know he’s doing everything possible to get back to full fitness. “Things could change very quickly, or it might take longer, so we need to be patient.”
