Lions recall JC Pretorius to poach Sharks
The Lions have made four changes to tomorrow’s team that takes on the Sharks.
Lions coach Ivan van Rooyen has recalled star poacher JC Pretorius for the United Rugby Championship clash with the Sharks at Emirates Airline Park tomorrow.
Pretorius, a tactical omission from last week’s team as the Lions went down 31-19 against the Vodacom Bulls at Loftus Versfeld, returns in one of four changes, three as a result of injuries.
