The United Rugby Championship enters round three this week, with the Sharks and Stormers playing overseas, while the Bulls and Lions will enjoy home-ground advantage this weekend.
In the only starting line-up change this week, Springbok scrumhalf Jaden Hendrikse will run-out to join brother Jordan, Hendrikse, in the back-line in the Sharks clash with the Dragons on Saturday.
The Sharks will be wanting to bounce back after a close defeat of 30-36 by Connacht last weekend, and will be looking to secure an away win and three crucial points against the Dragons team, that they have beaten in their three previous encounters.
Sharks coach John Plumtree only made the single change to his starting squad, with Phepsi Buthelezi and Francois Venter returning to the subs bench for the match.
Sharks Squad Selection: Jordan Hendrikse, Eduan Keyter, Jurenzo Julius, Andre Esterhuizen, Ethan Hooker, Siya Masuku, Jaden Hendrikse, Emmanuel Tshituka, Vincent Tshituka (capt), James Venter, Gerbrandt Grobler, Jason Jenkins, Ruan Dreyer, Dylan Richardson, Ntuthuko Mchunu,
