Everitt seeks the magic
Sharks under 21 coach Sean Everitt, seemingly scratching his head for answers after his team played great rugby in patches against Western Province, only to lose by 16 points, has made a number of changes to his team for tomorrow’s game against the Leopards.

Jafta injury causes back-row reshuffle for Sharks under 21s
Sharks under 21 coach Sean Everitt has been forced to name lock forward Peet Marais out of position on the blindside flank for this weekend’s opening clash against the Blue Bulls at Kings Park.
