Quotes from the Cell C Sharks Director of Rugby, Gary Gold.

“I was generally happy with our performance against Toulon. With that being our first hit-out of the season the players were bound to be a bit rusty in certain areas, but overall, I was pleased with the intensity and commitment shown in the match.

“The match against Toulouse gives us another opportunity to test new combinations and work on certain areas, that we weren’t as accurate in, last Friday. Toulouse boasts a good squad and they’ll provide the ideal test and preparation we require, ahead of the start of Super Rugby 2016.”

The following players are not available for selection due to either injury or SA Rugby limitations:

Beast Mtawarira

Coenie Oosthuizen

Francois Kleinhans

Giant Mtyanda

Lwazi Mvovo

Patrick Lambie

Ruan Botha
