Bosch missed last week’s 38-22 loss to the Hurricanes in Wellington because of a family bereavement.

After Boeta Chamberlain’s concussion ended his tour early‚ Nohamba battled gamely at 10‚ but with Curwin Bosch back and starting this week‚ the feisty scrumhalf has slotted back at nine as a starter.While the Sharks’ backs were solid with Chamberlain and slightly spectacular with Nohamba operating at 10‚ they missed Bosch at pivot with his astute tactical kicking and game management.

They do serve a critical defensive purpose‚ which will be required against a Rebels side that’s far from pretty‚ but not yet effective to be scary. However‚ their conservatism worked reasonably wonders for them when they constricted the Waratahs in Melbourne last week. The Sharks also have Thomas du Toit back in the starting line-up as the prop also missed the Hurricanes game through sickness.

The Rebels also have changes of their own in flyhalf Matt Toomua and wing Reece Hodge being replaced by Andrew Deegan and Andrew Kellaway respectively.Prop Jermaine Ainsley and inside centre Billy Meakes will be playing in their 50th Super Rugby matches.
