The Sharks have named a Currie Cup team with five changes to play the Lions
in Durban on Saturday at Kings Park Stadium.

Director of Rugby, Gary Gold say s that he wants to see the Sharks keep the
pressure on for the whole game this weekend.

“We have not put together an 80-minute performance so far this season
and against a team like the Lions if you go to sleep for periods in the match,
they will hurt you, ” said Gold.

“This weekend at home we have an opportunity to put together an 80-minute
performance and show what we are capable off.”
