“I’ll go down to Durban and then fly back on Friday night ,” explained White. “It has to be like that. I must do what I must do.”“There’s some experience in the team, but it’s actually an inexperienced team. There are six forwards who are still under 21,” said White. “They’ve got a chance to show they can play professional rugby and as a collective unit. Age is not an excuse … Schalk Burger was then the world’s best rugby player at 21.

“We need to win now. We had a poor start to the Currie Cup and need to catch up if we’re going to make the playoffs. “But we know this won’t be an easy game. The Sharks beat the defending champions, the Pumas, last week, so they’ll be confident and they haven’t lost at home in the Currie Cup this year.”Franco Knoetze, Sibongile Novuka, Lionel Mapoe, Chris Smit, Wandisile Simelane, Morne Steyn, Zak Burger, Nizaam Carr , Reinhardt Ludwig, Cameron Hanekom, Janko Swanepoel, Jacques du Plessis, Sebastian Lombard, Jan Hendrik Wessels, Simphiwe Matanzima.
