John Daniels: Back for Boland

South Africa's leading Currie Cup try-scorer John Daniels could boost the Boland Kavaliers against the Sharks at Wellington in the Currie Cup on Friday.

Coach Deon Davids confirmed that Daniels has recovered from a niggling leg injury that kept him out of the last two matches.

"Yes, John is well and available," Davids said.

Daniels back in the wing slot is one of a few options Davids has for the Sharks.

Centre and captain Piet van Zyl, who left the field early against the Falcons with concussion, is also available for selection. He also passed a fitness test on Tuesday.

Another is promising young centre Deon Scholtz, who sustained a chest injury against Western Province at Newlands a few weeks ago.

Up front, Davids will have a close look at his prop and lock options before he announces his side.

It will come as no surprise if former Blue Bull Andries Human returns to the side. He was absent for about a month due to illness.
