from OFM Sport · host Morgan Piek

The Sharks have received a timely boost ahead of Saturday’s United Rugby Championship derby against the Lions in Durban, with two Springboks back in the starting line-up. Loosehead prop Ox Nché and fullback Aphelele Fassi both return from injury and slot straight into the XV, adding steel up front and class at the back for the coastal side. Pietersen said that his side is refreshed, focused and ready to fire in their first outing of 2026.

Fore Please Podcast forepleasepodcast Välkommen till den enda podden i Sverige som pratar om golf som det borde! Här pratar vi inte utifrån storleken på prischeckarna, de uråldriga oskrivna reglerna eller hur golf ”ska” vara. Här är det en ex-collegespelare och en golfjournalist som tar upp både snackisar, golfnyheter och djupdykningar i det som gör golfen till vad den är: en sport med rik historia, spännande statistik, världsstjärnor och fantastiska prestationer. Häng med till golfens värld, den är inte så snobbig som du tror!Mejl: [email protected] Contre Ruck Manon Leger Bienvenue dans le vestiaire du rugby !Avec Contre Ruck, on pousse la porte des coulisses de l’ovalie pour partager des discussions authentiques avec celles et ceux qui font vivre ce sport.
