Sharks must cure European travel sickness if they are to progress to knockout rounds
Daily News
|January 06, 2026
IF THE Sharks can find a cure for their recent European travel sickness in Manchester on Saturday, they can strengthen their chances of advancing to the Investec Champions Cup playoffs.
JP Pietersen’s charges take on the Sale Sharks at CorpAcq Stadium on Saturday (7.30pm kickoff) in round three of Europe' premier competition, having started with an away defeat against Toulouse and a home win against Saracens, with one more round of pool matches to go before the round of 16. If the Sharks can pull off a rare European win on Saturday, they can climb above Sale and into the fourth and final playoff spot, and even above Toulouse should the French giants succumb to Saracens away.
Yet the Durban side’s woeful early season form on tour across competitions does not inspire confidence that they can get the job done away from the comfort of the Shark Tank.
