Sharks update: Team to face Crusaders

The Sharks team to take on the Crusaders in some New Zealand backwater (Timaru) on Saturday has been named. It shows 5 changes from the side that narrowly lost to the Cheetahs and Mark Lawrence over the weekend.

Johan Muller replaces Johan Ackermann in the second row. Jacques Botes makes a welcome return at no 8 for the woefully out-of-his-depth-at-this-level Braam Immelman.

Tony Brown has eventually decided he's had enough of the cheap Jap whores and has come to play some rugger, so he takes Brad Barrit's place at flyhalf. Waylon Murray (at last) displaces the out-of-form Bobo at outside centre, with Odwa Ndungane making Dusty Noble pay for his dropped pass.

The team is as follows:

Sharks XV:

15. Percy Montgomery
14. Odwa Ndungane
13. Waylon Murray
12. Andries Strauss
11. Brent Russell
10. Tony Brown

7. AJ Venter ©
6. Solly Tyibilika

Hey RobD

Good luck for the game!

Hope the Sharks travel well.
 
Eish RobD

So now we have both Kaplan & Mark Lawrence inda bag

But Mark Lawrence is the guy who allowed Habana to score from a Cheetah "advantage" the previous week- and it was Kaplan who refereed the Sharks- Cheetahs game

lol losing she aint nice- heh
 
Didn't Lawrence ref the Sharks-Cheetahs game?

Hmmm - I'm losing it.

Go OREGAN. Down with the clown and a better game for all!
 
The Sharks don't stand a chance this weekend. It seems that the rushing in of Tony Brown into the starting line up suggests they don't rate their chances either!
