Sport24 reports that Stefan Terblanche is set to become the first player in the history of Sharks and Natal rugby to represent his province in 200 games.
"Since making his debut in South African rugby for Boland in 1994, the man who hails from Swellendam has played an incredible 400 first class games.
"This includes 37 tests for the Springboks, 87 for Welsh side Ospreys, two for the SA under-21 team, another four midweek games for the Boks, three for the Barbarians, 67 for Boland, and now 112 Super Rugby matches for the Sharks and 87 Currie Cup games for the KwaZulu-Natal side.
"The 400 games that Terblanche has played in South African rugby is almost 50 more than Ollie le Roux’s 357 in second place.
"Terblanche broke the long-standing record of Hugh Reece-Edwards and Steve Atherton (both 165) playing for the Sharks.
"His recipe of still leading his side by example at 35 years of age is a mixture of luck, hard work and intelligence."
