Edit- 16 February, 2016– Sharks medical team have confirmed that Lambie will be out for 12 weeks (3 months). Ruan Botha and Franna Kleinhans will be also on the sidelines for a similar duration
Patrick Lambie picked up a shoulder injury in the Sharks’ recent friendly win (29-21) over RC Toulon, and the Durban based outfit have been rocked by the news that the Springbok flyhalf is expected to be out for close to two months.
The Sharks have Joe Pietersen and the young Inny Radebe as cover for Lambie, but neither quite in the same class as the former Michaelhouse star
Lambie shoulder injury has him out for 8 weeks. Not ideal for Sharks. Instead of challenging Willie for 15, looks like Joe P will play 10

@FantasyRugDraft One never reveals one's sources, but safe to say it's a good one
