Sale Sharks have opted for former All Black Dan Braid as their captain for the new season.

Braid arrived at the Salford City Stadium on New Year's Day and immediately helped turn the fortunes of the then beleaguered Premiership side. They were languishing at the foot of the table but Braid helped inspire the Sharks and help propel them up the table.

And he will skipper the Sharks this term. Director of rugby Steve Diamond said: "Dan is a not only a great player he is a natural leader and is very popular amongst the squad we have assembled at Sale Sharks for the coming season."
