Vincent leads the Sharks against the Bulls

Coach Plumtree has selected more URC players to the Currie Cup team. The Sharks will end up third on the log regardless of the result and will play the Bulls at Loftus in the semi final next week.

Due to injuries to e.g. Andre Esterhuizen and Eduan Keyter this will be a chance for youngsters like Jurenzo Julius and Litelihle Bester to show that they should be part of the URC squad that will travel to Europe towards the end of the month.
