Sharks named unchanged team to face the Waratahs

Sharks Head Coach Robert du Preez has named his team to face the Waratahs in Durban on Saturday.

Following last weeks victory over the Brumbies du Preez has stuck with the same 23 that played last weekend:

“The effort from the guys to pull of the win last week was fantastic and showed the character and fighting spirit amongst this special group of players.  That win has definitely motivated us, however it is important that we build on that momentum this week." du Preez said 

 
“We arrived back home on Sunday night and despite the jet lag, there has been no excuses from the guys.  As a coaching unit we cannot fault their commitment and work ethic, which has been amazing."
