The Sharks take on the Pumas in Nelspruit on Friday

The Sharks are top of the log but head coach Robert du Preez said there's no place for complacency.

LEADING the pack, the Cell C Sharks travel to Nelspruit to tackle the Pumas for their next Currie Cup game.

“Being top of the log at this stage is pleasing and it is due reward for the effort and character shown by our players over the last few weeks,” said head coach, Robert du Preez.

“There is no time for complacency though and we need to ensure that we carry the momentum from our six wins on the trot into this tough fortnight fixtures.

“The Pumas are a good side and showed just how dangerous they can be last week against the Golden Lions.  Playing them in Nelspruit will be a tough challenge, but our players are motivated though and want to retain our winning ways.”
