With ‘perhaps the smallest squad in the bubble’‚ Maritzburg coach Tinkler hopes to limit injuries BraMahlatse
Sixth-placed Maritzburg play their first match in the Biologically Safe Environment when they take on relegation-threatened bottom side Black Leopards at FNB Stadium on Sunday and Tinkler has admitted it is difficult to assess the readiness of his players.
“Obviously these are trying times. We have been out of the game for over four months. We have only really been back at training over the past five weeks and what makes it even more difficult is the fact that we are not playing friendly games to assess whether the players are going to be ready.” “I am happy with what I have seen from the guys in training but we will only truly know whether they are ready or not during the match.
“The fact that the competition has been played in Johannesburg benefits us to a degree because the trip to Thohoyandou is a very‚ very long trip. But at the same time‚ we have had very good results in Thohoyandou recently.
