The Sharks have confirmed yet another influential Springbok has put pen to paper on a new deal with the Durban outfit from next season.
A six-Test Bok loose forward, Sikhumbuzo Notshe has signed on at Kings Park until 2024.
The former Wynberg Boys’ High prodigy initially joined the Sharks in 2020 from the DHL Stormers and has become a pivotal member of the first team since arriving at the Shark Tank.

Deployed primarily from the back of the scrum, the 29-year-old is able to play across the back row and has featured prominently in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship and Champions Cup this season.
His contract extension comes on the back of contract renewals for fellow Boks, flyhalf Curwin Bosch and loosehead prop Ntuthuko Mchunu, along with loose forward Phepsi Buthelezi and utility back Marnus Potgieter.
