Rugby: Etzebeth fit to face Scarlets tomorrow night

 # Rugby: Eben Etzebeth has made a swift recovery and will play for the Sharks in tomorrow’s final United Rugby Championship league match against Scarlets in Durban. The Springbok lock hobbled off the field during last weekend’s victory over Ospreys, but it turned out to be just a leg knock. Emile van Heerden will join Etzebeth in the second row. Bok loosehead prop Ox Nché returns from illness, while Phepsi Buthelezi will wear the number eight jersey in place of Bok captain Siya Kolisi, who is rested.
