With the British and Irish Lions tour confirmed to be going ahead as planned, the Sharks are excited to feature in the traditional "midweek" game. Now that the British and Irish Lions tour is going ahead as planned in South Africa this winter, the Sharks are excited at the prospect of confronting the tourists. "It’s exciting time for the management and players at the Sharks to get an opportunity to play against the British and Irish Lions. Soon after the Rainbow Cup, the Currie Cup will start earlier than in former years, while the Springboks will shoot from the Lions tour into the Rugby Championship and possibly the end-of-year tour. As we know, the Rainbow Cup will finish and the Currie Cup will start that same week.
