SHARKS: STRATEGY TO 'NEUTRALISE' TOULOUSE KINGPIN
Nicholas Zaal
Mission: Keep Dupont at bay

The Sharks say they have done their homework and are ready and able to eliminate the threat posed by Toulouse star scrumhalf Antoine Dupont when the teams play their Champions Cup match at Kings Park Stadium on Saturday (kick-off 5.15pm).

The 2024 World Rugby Sevens Player-of-the-Year and French captain is lightning-quick on the ball, creating many openings to put his side ahead with his clever plays.

Dupont is set to play in the southern hemisphere for the first time in eight years when Toulouse travel to Durban.
