Glasgow's Los Pumas winger back for Sharks showdown
Glasgow have Argentinian winger Sebastian Cancelliere back from injury and in the team to take on the Sharks in Durban on Saturday.
Franco Smith has made eight changes in all from the side that beat Zebre last weekend as they begin a BKT United Rugby Championship double header in South Africa.
Smith told glasgowwarriors.org: “To play a Sharks side containing 12 Springboks coming off a Rugby Championship win is a daunting task and one that will be a big opportunity for us to measure ourselves against.
“The levels of experience in the Sharks squad are near unmatched in the URC and is a hallmark of the quality they have available.
“It’s a chance to test ourselves against the world’s best at one of the toughest venues in the competition.”

I would hope so. The English side can play rugby but bar the 03 team it looks like they have an allergic reaction to winning.
Go to commentsLeave Jake White out of it. The Bulls won't let him go and his contract runs until the end of 2027. However, I can see why you go with Jake. The amount of young talent he recruit and prepare for international rugby is just amazing.
Also a WC winning coach and the Bulls, who was like the Boks, forward dominant, is now one of the most dangerous attacking teams. Wales could definitely use someone like him. If anyone can reshape the Welsh team, he can. DOR is a far cry from what the WRU would allow though. They are just out for themselves.
