This process must start now so that Ingwe can go into the continental competition with a revamped and well prepared team. To him, the Shield victory was never in doubt. Even pundits had favoured Sharks to win, while the commentators had not forgotten the club’s financial challenges. This year’s victory makes Ingwe boast a record 11 titles since the competition’s inception in 1956. The Shield victory was achieved without three internationals, Robinson Kamura, Marcelas Ingosi and Keziron Kizito.
