This coming weekend marks not only the last round robin fixtures in the Currie Cup Premier Division, but also the last Griquas match under the leadership of coach Peter Engledow when they take on the Sharks in Kimberley.


Engledow has been at the helm of the Peakock Blues for some five years and will be succeeded by Brent Janse van Rensburg upon the conclusion of the Currie Cup.

Engledow in his turn told OFM Sport that he expects the weekend's last game with the Griquas to be an emotional one, especially in front of a home crowd but maintains that they have a job to do.

"As a group we would like to finish on a high and put in a good performance for the fans and supporters."

"At the same time it is important for the players who are staying to finish well for the union and make an impression on the new coach Brent Janse van Rensburg," Engledow added.

The Griquas welcome the Sharks to Tafel Lager Park in Kimberley for a 15:00 kick-off on Saturday.
