Head coach Joey Mongalo has named a re-jigged Sharks 23 to face the Free State Cheetahs in the Currie Cup at Kings Park on Friday.
Mongalo has tweaked the starting XV, with tighthead prop Carlu Sadie, openside flanker Dylan Richardson, lock Jeandre Labuschagne, centres Murray Koster and Alwayno Visagie named to run to out the tunnel and await the opening whistle on field in Durban.
“The win over the Pumas last week keeps momentum and the team vibe up and that psychological stuff matters, it is important,” he said.“It’s also good for the boys to have been in a place where they’ve won a game that looked unlikely, and somewhere in the backend of the season, they may find themselves in a similar position. So the fact that they’ve been there before is a massive thing for the group.
