The 134kg Du Toit, better known as “Tank”, has been a mainstay in the Sharks setup since debuting in 2014 at just 19.

The World Cup champion has signed with what looks to be a reinvigorated Bath outfit for next season and will play his final Sharks game at Hollywoodbets Kings Park – for now at least – against his former employers.

Kolisi, who arrived at the Shark Tank in 2021 from the Stormers, will be heading to Top 14 heavyweights Racing 92 next season.

Siya has made a massive impact in his short stint in Durban and leaves a big hole in Neil Powell’s pack of forwards.

The Sharks are currently eighth on the URC log, and while they have already qualified for the knockouts, they’ll need to travel for their quarterfinal after failing to secure a top four finish.
