Habana at centre for Toulon

Bryan Habana is one of three South Africans in the Toulon team to play against the Sharks at the Stade Mayol on Thursday.

The Bok wing will be joined by scrumhalf Michael Claassens and flank Gerhard Vosloo in the starting lineup, while Los Pumas trio Juan Martín Hernández, Nicolás Sanchez and Juan Martín Fernández Lobbe all make the run-on side.

Toulon have rested a number of first-choice players, but the match-day squad is still a balanced blend of regular and fringe players.
