Sharks lock Ruan Botha will not play for the Sharks vs Bulls match on Sunday.
He has been suspended for three matches following a disciplinary hearing after his red card in the match between South Africa ‘A’ and the French Barbarians.
Botha was red carded in the 39th minute of the match when he “charged into a ruck dangerously, leading with the arm and shoulder making contact with the opponent’s face.”
The player admitted foul play and agreed that the issue of a red card was appropriate.
The Sharks will meet the Bulls at 3.15am Sunday.
