I also read that JdV would like to return but SA rugby says that will be between him and WP. Well why can’t it be between JdV and the Sharks?
@Farlington:agree with you 100% !
@Farlington (Comment 1) : i read somewhere that it’s a professional game and he could move anywhere but he was been wearing a wp jersey since he was 9 or something
@war1 (Comment 3) : Yeah I know that it will be highly unlikely, but I’m a glass is half full kinda guy. Besides who thought that Percy and Skinstad would join the Sharks?
@Farlington (Comment 4) : they came to play for Dick…
Jean will more than likely return to WP now that Habs and TWG13 are here. He is also big mates with Schalkie and Andries!!!
Hopefully the guys without contracts will step up and play better.
@Jarson’s (X + V) (Comment 7) : hopefully the ones with won’t go to sleep.
