Sharks aim for Currie Cup redemption with Junior Bok talents

After being walloped 64-0 by the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld this past weekend, the Sharks have set their sights on turning their fortunes around as they continue to invest in young players for the tournament.

Despite the heavy defeat, there is still positivity in the camp, and according to head coach JP Pietersen, they've prepared well for the onslaught from their Free State counterparts.

“We are only two games in and there are still a lot more left to play in the competition,” Pietersen said on Thursday.

He announced a side brimming with Junior Springboks for the duel at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in Clermont.
