André Esterhuizen is one of three injured Sharks players ruled out of Saturday’s clash against Munster, with reinforcements already in place in Limerick.

Sharks captain André Esterhuizen is one of three injured players sent home and ruled out of Saturday's match against Munster. Esterhuizen sustained a right ankle injury under a minute into the Sharks' 36-21 victory over Cardiff. Prop Phatu Ganyane suffered a right elbow injury, while center Jurenzo Julius picked up a right hamstring problem, with all three returning to Durban for specialist medical evaluations.
To compensate for the losses, Cameron Dawson, Litelihle Bester, and Suleiman Hartzenberg joined JP Pietersen's squad in Limerick on Sunday. The Sharks aim to conclude their tour successfully at Thomond Park in round five of the United Rugby Championship before the international break.
