Overview

• The Currie Cup fixture at Woodburn Stadium kicks off at 5:10pm on Saturday, 30 August.
• Coach JP Pietersen overhauled the Sharks XV, recalling Siya Masuku at flyhalf and bringing in Paschal Ekeji, Albie Bester, Jacques Marais, Mawande Mdanda and Jannes Potgieter.
• Pietersen cautioned that Masuku may be rusty after limited recent game time, positioning the outing as a chance to bank minutes before URC duties.
• Boland, second on the log with four wins from five, named Juan Mostert at 10 in one of five changes, with leading try-scorer Donovan Don returning on the right wing.
• The result feeds into the penultimate round’s semi-final picture, with Boland chasing seeding as the Sharks look to build on their 29-21 win over Western Province.
