Leinster enter the Shark Tank needing a plan to deal with Luan Giliomee

Luan Giliomee’s two tries in the Sharks’ victory over Ospreys was the latest standout performance from a precocious talent. The 20-year-old South African sensation’s next port of call is Saturday’s URC clash with Leinster at Kings Park in Durban. The Irish province is forewarned. Forearmed? That’s to be determined.

Leinster might point to one of their own, another 20-year-old, and a fullback too, Todd Lawlor, who enjoyed a brilliant debut in the narrow defeat to the Lions. The son of former Irish international Phil certainly took the chance presented to him, running for more metres (144) and beating six defenders in an eye-catching display.
