Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>Veteran centre Juan de Jongh will lead Western Province in their final Currie Cup game of the season as they take on the Sharks in Stellenbosch on Friday.<\/p>\n

While the home side has no hope of making the playoffs of the competition, the Sharks will be looking for a victory to enhance their chances of doing so.<\/p>\n

Regular fullback Tristan Leyds moves to flyhalf with Sergeal Petersen taking the No 15 jumper and Ebenezer Tshmanga starting on the right-wing.<\/p>\n

The pack shows two changes, with Shaine Orderson getting his first start at flank while Lee-Marvin Mazibuko packs down at tighthead prop.<\/p>\n

Jerome Paarwater, head coach of Western Province, says his charges are hoping to end their season on a high against a strong Sharks outfit.<\/p>\n

“The players are determined to show how much it means for them to play in this jersey, and we will be giving it everything we have while also enjoying the experience on Friday,” said Paarwater.<\/p>\n

“We want to finish strong and show what we are capable of, so it should be a great game against a strong Sharks side,”” he said.<\/p>\n
