Loose forward likely to get more game time at Sharks

10 September 2019 - 16:44Now that the domestic rugby season is done and dusted‚ the Sharks have started their hunt for players. James Venter has become their first acquisition.

The Sharks are not lacking for loose forwards‚ but with Du Preez’s twin loose-forward son’s Jean-Luc and Daniel also leaving the franchise‚ vacancies have suddenly availed themselves. He added a fair bit of punch and bite to the Lions’ second-half cause with two tries in Saturday’s 31-28 Currie Cup final loss to the Free State Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.

The Sharks were fortunate in having Lubabalo “Tera” Mtembu for the whole Currie Cup season. The No 8 has spent a lot of time on the physiotherapists's bench recently.
