And, topping the bill for local fans will be the first SA derby of the new season when the Sharks host the Stormers in Durban on Saturday , while the Bulls and Lions are in action in Ireland at 7.30pm and 9.35pm respectively, also on Saturday. In the first match of the weekend, involving the SA sides, the Sharks will be keen to get one over their coastal rivals to move up the log, but the Capetonians themselves will be desperate to hit back after a poor start to their campaign .
These players include Wilco Louw, Elrigh Louw, Marco van Staden, Johan Grobbelaar, Gerhard Steenekamp, Cameron Hanekom and Canaan Moodie as the Pretoria-based side look to cement their place in the top three. They have so far won four from five matches.
