Plumtree Warns Sharks: Talent Alone Won't Secure Urc Win Over Edinburgh

The Sharks team to play Edinburgh on Friday night 8.35pm kick-off looks like a million dollars, but they could go bust if the players dont gel, warns coach John Plumtree.

The Big Kiwi has craved having this star-studded line-up for six months, but now that he has all the pieces of the jigsaw, he needs them to fit neatly into place.

Plumtree has 15 Springboks in his match-23, including the most-capped of them all in Eben Etzebeth, but everyone knows that matches are not won on paper.

Yeah, its a little bit of a relief to have all the big guns back in the build-up to the playoffs, Plumtree said on Thursday.

However, as strong as we look, the challenge will be for us to get our game going.
