We’re getting quite used to these last-minute team changes, aren’t we?
Late-breaking news is that Anton Bresler will be on the Sharks bench this evening in the number 18 jersey. Mike Rhodes, named at 18, shifts down one spot and Skollie Ndlovu falls out of the squad.
Revised Sharks squad:
15 Ludik, 14 Ndungane, 13 Terblanhce (capt), 12 Strauss, 11 Mvovo, 10 Lambie, 9 McLeod, 8 Daniel, 7 Alberts, 6 Botes, 5 Hargreaves, 4 Sykes, 3 Herbst, 2 du Plessis, 1 Mtawarira
16 Burden, 17 van Staden, 18 Bresler, 19 Rhodes, 20 Kokcott, 21 Pretorius, 22 Swanepoel

Is this to reward Bresler, because Hargreaves is looking dodgy or is Skollie injured? Or, heaven forbid, is Willem Alberts looking shaky, so the loose forward cover needed to be bulked up and bolstered?
Don’t you think he rather deserves a chance??? He was playing quite well during Vodacom Cup.
@MerckZ (Comment 1) :
Hargreaves looking Dodgy?????????? 😯 😯 😯 😯
Not sure how big Bresler is, but if he brings some bulk and aggression to the party ala Alberts I`m happy.
@Original Log Leader (Comment 4) :
I believe his nickname is Stretch so maybe he is quite tall. 😉
Bresler is a safer bet then Ndlovu in my eyes…
Lions beating WP – could this be the start of a very good weekend?? 😆
@Mole (Comment 6) : Mmm Flasher Girl just took my first position in one of our SB pools. . . This could turn into a very long week for me . . . 😈
Question. For the conferences stage of the S15, do the teams all play each other home and away?
Stretch is Anton’s dad, KSA.
Anton is around 2m and roughly 110 kilos, I think. Something like that.
Against the Bulls, I think it makes much more sense to have a proper lock and a bulky loose forward on the bench, than a makeshifyt lock and yet another lightweight loosie. Not sure why they didn’t just name this combo to begin with
@KSA Shark © (Comment 3) : Injury wise, lol.
@robdylan (Comment 10) : Indeed, bit harsh on Skollie though.
Skolz is a seriously underrated player, but my feeling is that you give up too much in bulk if you have three sub-100 kg loosies in the 22
Klempie, I believe so
@robdylan (Comment 14) : Cool thanks. 😎
Apparently Danny Cipriani will be joining the new Real Madrid of rugby.
