Gutted to be injured and miss this game....you better win this game just for me Sharks....carn boys!!
Without Heef we are probably going to struggle with the line-outs. Other than that we should dominate.
Definitely, but Storer is a decent enough prop and the fact they have Das in the front row pretty much evens it out IMO.
Losing 2 Test players obviously stings a bit but with the backrow and halves pairing we've got we can more than make up for it. Not like Storer is a slouch, nor the rest of the front row to be perfectly honest. That Alessi has only just managed to get a start says everything about the two squads tbh.
