About Sharksworld

Welcome to Sharksworld. A site where we discuss rugby. All rugby.

I’m Rob and I run the site, together with my bunch of faithful helpers, whose names you can see on the Contact Us page. I support the Sharks, of course and am pretty passionate about them, hence the name of the site.

That doesn’t mean we don’t post stories about other teams and that we don’t welcome fans from anywhere and everywhere. Just have a sense of humour and be able to laugh at yourself from time to time and we’ll get along great.

This is primarily a fan site and we welcome submissions from anyone who has anything they’d like to say. If you’ve written something that you’d like to see up on the site, get in touch and we’ll gladly put it up, so long as it’s vaguely on topic. And we do mean vaguely! Even better, if you have the gift of the gab and would like to be a regular contributor, let us know. Diversity is what will help us grow.

Although we will occasionally stray onto the politics of rugby, that’s not the primary focus here. This is mostly about what happens ON the field. There are plenty other sites that focus on the shenanigans at SARU. So if you really want to go off about how much you hate Mike Stofile, or Koos Basson, or whoever else… this is not really the place. Politics in general is a no-no, so if you do find yourself straying onto the subject of Eskom, arms deals, affirmative action or anything along those lines, please be understanding if an administrator gently guides you towards another topic. (For more on the subject of gentle guidance, please see the Rules).

Let’s try to keep it all rugby – and all for fun.

Drop me a line on robdylan@sharksworld.co.za if you have any questions.
