Cell C Sharks director of Rugby Neil Powell says his team need to be accurate in all areas of the game and plan really well for their visit to Cape Town to face the Stormers in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship. The Durban based side has lost their last 2 home matches in the URC, the most recent one being the 31-24 loss to Irish side Ulster this past weekend. The previous home loss will still be fresh on the minds of many in the franchise as the Stormers put 6 tries past the Sharks to register a 46-19 triumph at the Hollywoodbets Kings Park Stadium.
The Stakes will be high for the Black and white as they remain in the fight for securing a play off spot in the URC. They currently sit in 7th on the log, just 6 points ahead of Cardiff who are in 9th position. Powell believes that proper planning and execution will be needed for their latest test against the current URC holders at their home turf.
