Double world champions Eben Etzebeth, Lukhanyo Am and Vincent Koch are all fitness concerns for the Sharks after Saturday’s defeat to Benetton in Durban.

Koch and Etzebeth were forced off inside the first quarter of the 25-24 loss in the Vodacom URC at Kings Park, while fellow Springbok and skipper Am was substituted before half time.

“That was the frustrating thing about tonight; obviously I would’ve liked to have had no injuries, won the game and everything fell into place, but it was pretty much the total opposite. “It sounds like there’s a little part of that clavicle joint that’s upset but again, he wasn’t too stressed. “It would’ve been great to win tonight and have no injuries but the reality is that didn’t happen. But we can’t afford to be too down there’s only one massive game for us to really do something this year and we’ll turn our attention towards that,” Plumtree said.
