Siya and Bongi starts against their old team

Sean Everrit had made only two changes to the starting lineup from last week. Siya Kolisi replaces James Venter who drops out of the squad, and Bongi Mbonambi replaces Kerron van Vuuren who drops down to the bench.

The Stormers will want to continue their good form away from home after beating the Bulls at Loftus. This is the last home game for the Sharks before two away games in SA and one in Italy – so the Sharks will want to make the most of it as well. The Sharks set pieces were very good against the Lions and team is making progress on attack.
