Sanzar CEO Greg Peters believes the Sharks will take the field in Nelson on Saturday night, despite the ash cloud blanketing both sides of the Tasman.
Peters says it's a wait and see scenario for now as it could play out any number of ways.
He says the plane that is due to carry the Sharks to Sydney will land in another Australian city if it can.
For Peters it's another chapter in a season involving earthquakes and ash clouds.
The Sharks have just left Johannesburg bound for Sydney but may be diverted to Brisbane if the ash cloud is still hovering over Sydney.
