Dear Jean;
Since joining The Sharks you’ve become a crowd favourite, a legend – you have many fans, and we all think that you are an incredible rugby player. We all wish you a speedy recovery and wish you the best during this difficult time.
Highest regards,
Richard Southey
Jean
Get better soon because the Sharks, the Boks and the Fans will miss your inspirational play.It’s a pity the Bok management don’t know what they missing in you yet but I’m sure they’ll come around and I’m looking forward to seeing a faster, fitter, stronger Wolla playing in the Super 15 and the Rugby World Cup 2011.
Steve.
We are going to need you come the extended Super 15 and I hope you get better soon and play the kind of rugby you became famous for in France but this time it will be with the victorious Sharks.
Pokkel
Dear Jean and Steve
All the best with a speedy recovery!!
We hope to see you guys on the field again soon..
Richard Ferguson
Dear Jean,
All the best buddy, get over that knee injury and get back to the Sharks. You are a legend to us Shark supporters and was hoping to see you in the Green and Gold of the Boks this eoyt. So hoping you back for the S15 to give it your all, like you always do. Was really looking forward to seeing you play with Alberts again against WP, but don’t worry buddy we will see you both doing that in the S15. You will be missed at the Sharks HUGE.
Puma.
Dear Steve,
Hope to see you playing for the Sharks soon again. All the best with a speedy recovery.
Puma.
Hey Guys
Hope we see you in the Black & White soon.
Get well quickly! That’s an order soldier!
Jacques
Geez! What a soppy bunch of males!
Jean and Steve, get you backsides out of the hospital!! We need you!
BTW – get well soon!!
Jean,
hopefully the injury will heal quicker than expected and we will be seeing you on the field again soon with the same authority that you always bring to the field. the boks dont know what they missing out on with you not in the side.
Steve,
get well soon and hopefully the injury heals quicker than expected. you have been a good flyhalf in the few games you have played for us and i look forward to seeing more of you.
Get well soon and good luck
Rich
Dear jean and steve Ur both great players and all us sharks supporters wish u both a quick recovery and hope 2 c u in the black and white 4 a long time 2 come.
Jean, already looking forward to you monstering some Kiwi’s in the S15. Head up and train hard, you will be back in a flash. Flyhalfs will be sleeping easy for Xmas at least… Work on those guns.
Steve, looking forward to seeing your impact next year, it was looking promising.
Both of you recover quick now! Black and white, its all that matters.
Jean and Steve,
Sorry about the injuries. The fans will be waiting eagerly for your return!
Until then, remember that their is more to life than rugby. Allegedly…
Hi Guys!
Hope you guys recover and come back with an even bigger bang than what you started with. It is damn frustrating knowing that you two guys won’t make the trip to Rustenburg this weekend.
Or are you going to travel with?
Get well soon guys.
Franco
Dear Jean and Steve,
You are both most welcome to take a [significant] salary cut and join the Cheetahs.
Regards

@Loosehead (Comment 13) : You are getting very irritating you know… Real D!Q
@Loosehead (Comment 13) :
@SharksRTB (Comment 14) : Dude your WAY so serious sometimes
@SharksRTB (Comment 14) : Get a life!
@Pokkel (Comment 15) : You can’t be a Sharks supporter, you have a sense of humour!
LOL Loosehead: good one!
Remember this when we poach Brussow
@Big Fish (Comment 18) : Damn that hurts!
I must say that you have me on the ropes with that one.
Come on okes. Decorum, please. Banter is fine, but personal attacks are not
@Loosehead (Comment 17) : I am a Shark’s supporter but I appreciate a bit of humour every now and again.
@Big Fish (Comment 18) : Not long now by October 2011 we’ll have Mapoe and Brussow legally.
@Loosehead (Comment 17) : I recon one way to get the Cheetah’s financially strong again is when they start allowing for transfer fees to be paid. It should be the way forward.
I enjoy this site.
WTF is decorum?? And DON’T tell me to google it!
@Pokkel (Comment 21) : Heinrich extended his contract over the injury period… No Brussouw just yet.
@Ice (Comment 23) : It is when everyone is nice to the VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAT and don’t poach our players.
@Loosehead (Comment 22) : Sucking up are you??
@Loosehead (Comment 25) : It’s not JUST the Sharks that poach but we have a healthy FS community in Durbs.
Miskien moet julle daai waterfront in Bloem bietjie groter maak en n ‘wavepool’ insit met n strand….en die water moet definetief verhit wees ook. Dan sal die manne dalk langer bly.
I like you too, loosehead, despite your free state tendency
It was great seeing you on the field again Jean, even if it was just for a minute. Heal fast we want to see a lot more of you in the Super 15 and then after that hopefully in the World Cup. If you’re fit you definitely deserve a call up.
Good luck! We will miss you this Currie Cup season, but hopefully not too much.
Be kind to Vrystaat supporters: their children may be playing for the Sharks soon.
@Big Fish (Comment 30) : FSRU / Grey Bloem is/are the Steve Hofmeyer of rugby…
Hey Steve
Really disappointing to see you injured just as your Sharks career was finally getting underway. Hang in there and remember that these things always happen for a reason, even if it’s not always easy to see what that reason could be. Can’t wait to see you back in action as soon as possible, so keep your head high knowing that we’re all behind you 100% of the way.
Get well soon, mate
Rob
@robdylan (Comment 32) : He is not contracted (due to his earlier shambles)… I think we should contract him now (please confirm?)… We don’t want him to be “rehabbed” by us, only for him to be whimsical… (Hey history is unkind until you redeem yourself) (Obviously the author will select applicable messages to Steve and Jean)
@DarkDestroyer (Comment 33) : you’re quite pessimistic, aren’t you?
@DarkDestroyer (Comment 33) : yes, we will filter out the unnecessary stuff.
I hope the Sharks stick by Steve during his rehabilitation, that’s for sure. That guy loves the Sharks.
Wolla
So sorry about the injury, mate. Life can be cruel sometimes, but I know you are already fighting your way back and will be in the black and white again before we know it.
Baie sterkte, ou pel.
Rob
@war1 (Comment 34) : No not at all, I am realistic – it was not a stab at Steve Meyer I think he is a valuable player… But in the real world the odds are stacked against you if you go Jerry Maguire then make a come back, I think he is worthy of a contract, but if he is not contracted, he could become disillusioned. Agreed? Not sure why you’d say I am pessimistic?
Hey Steve
The first few Currie Cup games was the first time I saw you play. I thought you did really well and was looking forward to seeing more of you in the Sharks jersey. Bad luck about the injury, I hope you recover and comeback to show us even more of what you can can do.
Dear Jean and Steve,
Wishing you both a speedy recovery, many prayers are going out. The Sharks team is not the same without you guys!!!
Dear Jean and Steve,
Hope you guys make a speedy recovery.
Ciao

@wpw (Comment 40) : Say it like you mean it
Steve en Jean,
Hoop julle is sommer gou weer op die been! Hoop om julle by die Sharks Ladies Breakfast te sien!
Kyk uit vir die klein blonde vroutjie wat verskriklik hard en baie praat!
Ice
@Pokkel (Comment 41) :
@Pokkel (Comment 41) : now now… leave him be!
Thanks you Wesley.
@Ice (Comment 42) :
BTW – No pun intended with the “gou op die been”..
Jean,
Dis jammer dat jy weer `n besering opgetel het. Man, ek kan net dink hoe jy moet voel. Ek hoop jou operasie(s) is suksesvol en die rehabilitasie gaan goed, want ons het jou op die veld nodig as ons daai S15 beker volgende jaar Durban toe wil bring. Alle sterkte en goeie beterskap!
Steve,
Bad luck! And just when you were settling into the Sharks lineup and getting your combo with Charl right. Sometimes rugby’s is a cruel mistress. Hope you’re better soon and back on the park. All the best!
Rhineshark
@Ice (Comment 45) : jeepers
@robdylan (Comment 47) :
Murphy has a way of coming out every once and a while and kicking you to the ground. Just as the squad started looking in good shape with everyone starting to gel and players coming back from injury the bastard once again shows up to spoil the party.
Jean, You are a Bus, a wreckingball and a absolute legend. I was hoping to see you come back and prove the Bok selectors that you deserved a spot, but unfortunately we will have to wait a while to see your bullocking runs in the black and white again. Take your time and get fit for good!
Steve, your time at the Sharks has been a difficult one, and finally when you show your worth in the number 10 jersey you are removed due to injury. As with Jean, take your time and heal properly, time is one your side, and I have little doubt that you will become another Kings Park favourtie once you return.
Hey bokies, never good to hear about a player being injured so hears to a speedy recovery to both of you hope you end up to your roaring best.
Hi the 2 of you.
Get better Get ready – We need you
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 50) : Heita! Moenie djou wiepie minierkies hi ythaal ni!
Hi
Apparently i need to wish you a speedy recovery or lose my posting rights, anyways all the best recover soon and move to another province, at least that way you won’t have to deal with rabid fans and incompetent coaches.
Kind regards
Sauce
No really
Dear Jean and Steve,
Hope you guys make a speedy recovery.
Ciao
Sauce and WPW personal ticket scalper
@Worcestershire Sauce (Comment 53) :
Hey shush!!
Jean & Steve
Sorry to here about your unfortunate injuries.
Here’s to your speedy recover.
Look forward to seeing you back on the track out asap.
HH
Jean
Jy is ‘n yster, baie dankie wat jy vir die Sharks gedoen het. Hoop jy is gou weer reg.
that’s ‘hear’…not ‘here’
& … don’t worry
Steve
Hard luck mate. I wish you a speedy recovery. We are all looking forward to seeing you in Sharks colours again soon.
@Worcestershire Sauce (Comment 53) : bastard agent
Steve goes in for an ACL repair operation next week
@robdylan (Comment 60) : Ouch
@robdylan (Comment 61) : Real ouch – i wouldn’t wish this on anyone.
Hi Jean and Steve
Bummed to hear about your injuries
But use this time to prepare mentally for a fantastic S15 Hope your recovery is very speedy and that you are back on the field for the Sharks before too long
Hi Jean and Steve
While it`s never pleasant for us to lose players to injury I urge you both to enjoy this ” mental break” from the game.
Rest up, we`re all looking forward to welcoming you guys back in the best shape of your lives.
@Worcestershire Sauce (Comment 62) : ja… not even any of my worst enemies from the old days!
Hey Jean and Steve, just wanna say hope you guys get well soon and hit the weights when possible. Just do the best you can in your current situation to be ready for the comeback. Good luck with the rehab and give it horns in the Gym, Cheers. Sharks forever.
Dudes, best of luck with the recovery.
Hard work and perseverence and you’ll be back before you know it.
Hi Steve;
It has been a rollercoaster few months for you I am sure, but we as Shark supporters are backing you, we believe in you and wish you a speedy and solid recovery. The Tank is your home and we are looking forward to seeing you produce some good work, you have fantastic skill and look forward to you challenging for the top spot again soon.
Best of luck with the op and rehab.
Richard Southey
Jean,
As we get closer to the weekend rugby, the impact of losing you becomes clearer. I can’t help but sigh sadly as I think of all the Leopards players who were actually able to sleep last night, not having nightmares about a big, scary man running over, through and on top of them.
You have a huge fan base here: if you need some support, come blog with us here and we can laugh about THAT tackle on Pierre Spies together, or even make jokes about the WP “boys” sexuality.
@Big Fish (Comment 69) : well said
@Big Fish (Comment 69) : he’s already seen this thread and conveyed his thanks for the support. Says it means the world to him.
Steve,
Like many here, I was a bit skeptical of your return. Rob posted an article asking the guys to give you the benefit of the doubt, which we did, and wow: did you ever step up!
We know you aren’t flashy, but the we also see the big hits, the uinselfish contributions, the ability to create space for other.
Keep it up mate: you have all our support!
@Big Fish (Comment 72) : I like that, Fishsticks. It’s sincere.
I am always “without wax” me mate.
My spelling sucks cos I’m typing from my BB: trying to keep my blogging away from the eyes of The Man.
@Big Fish (Comment 74) : aaah – the man. Yes
Jean Deysel and Steve Meyer
Get well guys
Its not good to see when the guys get hurt and off for the season or a game or two will miss the both of you’s. Speady recovery and hope to see the both of you’s on the field soon
@robdylan (Comment 75) : Hi Rob; you are worlds ahead of me in terms of in depth news re the beautiful game, so you might already be aware that folks are talking about P.Div’s squad that is already set in stone for the RWC – please can you do some research on this and create a discussion board.
Many thanks.
