appearance this season when his side clash against Busters in the National Rugby League at Hartsfield Rugby Grounds this afternoon.
Nemadire has been training with the Harare giants but had not been available for the league games due to work commitments.
The Cheetahs utility will feature for Sports Club for the first time this season in Bulawayo.
Jakov Jakov and Takura Tela will not be travelling due to injuries while Bruce Chibesa, centre Sean Makombe and lock Tafadzwa Bepura will also not be part of the former champions.Another winger Tadiwa Sibanda will be making his first start for Sports Club while Arthur Musikavanhu and Ashley Mabhena have been drawn from their second string side.
The Sports Club second string side do not have a game this weekend and coach Cyprian “Supa” Mandenge has taken the opportunity to balance his side with players from the second tier team. Mandenge says his aim is to maintain their winning run as he believes his side has the talent to show they are one of the best teams in the league.
“At this stage of the season I believe the players have the belief and confidence because they now know what we are aiming for, and they understand our game.
“We just want to, at least, maintain our winning form and improve with each game we play and although there are a number of players who are out this week we have the talent to cover for that.
“Tela suffered an injury during a training session while Jakov suffered a rib injury in the game against Old Hararians and has been out for two weeks now.
“But we have a balanced side and we want to get better with each game we play and the key to winning against Busters is taking the chances that we get,” said the Sables assistant coach.
Sports Club are seated in second position in the National Rugby League with one defeat while Busters have two wins and two losses but Mandenge is not reading too much into the statistics.
“Busters are always a tough team especially when they are at home and in front of their home crowd. “When they (Busters) come to Harare they do not bring most of their players, they field them when they are at home.
“We have not seen their other side but as a team we are not worried about how other teams are playing but we concentrate on how we are playing,” said Mandenge.
Defending champions and log leaders Old Georgians are expected to maintain their unbeaten run when they take on lowly Airforce at Manyame Airbase this afternoon.
Old Hararians are also expected to make light work of bottom placed Panthers at the Hartsfield Rugby Grounds after Mutare’s date against Old Miltonians.
The Old Boys have lost once and are sitting one place below Sports Club due to an inferior points difference as they have amassed one less than Sports Club.
With 14 points from the same number of games off three wins and two bonus points, the Old Boys have won against Old Miltonians, Mutare and lowly Panthers.
Like last season, life has not been sweet in the main league for the airforce side, as they have only managed to scrap one win in the four games they have played so far.
In the opening week Airforce suffered a 48-17 defeat at the hands of Bulawayo side Busters, before Harare Sports Club and Old Georgians crushed the struggling side.
