'Giant' ready to stand tall

Durban - Lock Lubabalo "Giant" Mtyanda wants to prove his worth when he makes his Super Rugby debut for the Sharks this weekend.

Mtyanda was the surprise selection in the Sharks team picked to tackle the Lions at Kings Park on Saturday. After his loan move to the Durban side from the Pumas, he has quickly settled in, making a notable impression among Springboks and international players.

On Saturday he will get his opportunity to compete at Super Rugby level, which has been one of his main goals in recent years.
