Durban - The Sharks face the Chiefs in their latest Super Rugby outing this week with most of the attention focused on their failure to honour a selection agreement with Springbok management ahead of the Kings Park clash on Saturday.
Director of Rugby Gary Gold selected national trio Patrick Lambie, Cobus Reinach and Marcell Coetzee for a sixth consecutive game.
The move goes against an understanding with the South African Rugby Union (SARU) that no Boks would be fielded for more than five straight weeks.
