Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>Sharks coach Sean Everitt said loose-forward Dylan Richardson has shown why he is a capped Scottish international player.<\/p>\n

Richardson, a Kearsney College product, will be starting at flank for the Sharks when they face Leinster in Dublin in their United Rugby Championship clash on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Richardson played some of his formative rugby at hooker, but Everitt said Richardson has taken on his loose-forward responsibilities to a point where he shows that he belongs there.<\/p>\n

“His robustness is the reason we’re playing him on the blindside because he’s physical and he puts in a lot of carries,” Everitt said.<\/p>\n

“Dylan has always been an all-round loose-forward. He may have lacked a bit in height, but his scavenging and his excellence on the ground add to his team selection.<\/p>\n

“There was talk of Dylan moving to hooker, but he’s comfortable on the flank and he covers all the areas that we need him to.<\/p>\n

Everitt has been happy to use Richardson, James Venter, Sikhumbuzo Notshe, and Phendulani Buthelezi as his main loose forwards in the past two games.<\/p>\n

For the Leinster game, he’s rotated Notshe with Buthelezi at number eight, but kept his two fetchers in operation.<\/p>\n

Everitt said they’ve got a massive task at hand on Saturday, but one Richardson and Venter should get through as expected of them.<\/p>\n

“Dylan and James get through a mountain of work and their tackle count is very high,” Everitt said.<\/p>\n

“They’re able to put pressure on the opposition’s breakdown. So, it stands in good stead for us that we’re going in with two fetchers.<\/p>\n

“Dylan was man-of-the-match last week and Dylan wasn’t too far behind, so that’ll make for an interesting tussle.”<\/p>\n

Kick-off is at 18:05 SA time.<\/p>\n
