Sharks XV up against it
Spare a thought for Sharks XV coaches Sean Everitt and Sean Erasmus this week; the pair of namesakes will want to consolidate their position towards the top of the Vodacom Cup South Section log by beating Boland this weekend; however, they’ll travel to the Cape without a clutch of first-team regulars.

The Sharks flew out to Sydney yesterday with only three props in their touring squad, one of which will not be able to play this coming weekend against the Waratahs, thanks to an injury picked up against the Reds. [...]
Taking their opportunities
For a number of the lads named to play for the Sharks XV in their opener against Border on Friday, their selections are just rewards for putting in the hard yards during pre-season and forcing the coaches to show faith in them, even though they may not have been quite so fancied in the past. [...]
Sharks XV ready for action
The Sharks XV take on the Border Bulldogs in their opening match to the 2012 Vodacom Cup tournament on Friday night in East London. The team that has been selected sees a mixture of young talent and experienced heads, and should take the game to the Bulldogs. [...]
Sharks must go for experience
