Lambie again on the bench

Pat Lambie will again be on the bench this weekend.

Sharks assistant coach, Sean Everitt, says Lambie will not start against Western Province on Saturday.

Everitt says Lambie will most likely to start their Absa Currie Cup semi-final encounter later this month.

The Sharks are planning to start with Tendai Mtawarira and both Du Plessis brothers against Province.

Willem Alberts will not feature in Durban on Saturday night. Alberts has a neck injury and is not available for selection.

The Springbok flanker did some stationary cycling at the Sharks training session this morning, but was not involved in activities on the pitch.

Jake White was also a spectator at practice.

He had a few chats with Brendan Venter in the course of the session.

Meanwhile, Everitt also revealed that Charl McLeod will start at scrumhalf this weekend. Cobus Reinach will be among the replacements.

Kickoff is at 19h10 on Saturday night.
