The Sharks prevailed in a helter-skelter contest against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein on Saturday, moving back into the play-off reckoning as a result. Let’s take a sober look at how things stand for the side with two rounds of Super Rugby remaining before the knock-outs. [...]

Taking stock
Ton up for Adi!
Adrian Jacobs will win his 100th Super Rugby cap if (or rather when) he takes the field for the Sharks this weekend. The popular Springbok centre has been named on the bench for the crunch opener against the Cheetahs. [...]

Moving on from players whose commitment to the Bok jersey is being questioned, we have set up a SHARKSWORLD exclusive with a man whose commitment has never been questioned: Adi Jacobs!
Sharks injuries blessing in Disguise?
As we all know the Sharks have a great number of our top performers currently out with injury. But is it all bad? [...]
Jacobs gone – for the season?
Adrian Jacobs, one of the few Sharks backline players to consistently shine on attack this season, suffered a potentially campaign-ending shoulder injury against the Hurricanes on Saturday. The veteran centre dislocated his shoulder early in the encounter and it appears to be a recurrence of the injury that plagued him in the early parts of last year. [...]
Review: Brumbies Game
Wow, I am so disappointed. Once again we come so close, but yet we miss out when the game was there for the taking.
Shocking, really
The Cheetahs once again upended the Sharks, this time 25-20. It was a diabolical display from The Toothless Ones, a slap in the face of all loyal fans who pull on the black jersey every weekend. [...]
Jacobs, Smit start in Kimberley
In a somewhat unexpected move, Adrian Jacobs has been named to start at outside centre when the Sharks take on Griquas. John Smit will start at tighthead prop. [...]
Should Adi play 12 for the Sharks?
If the talk is to be believed, Adrian Jacobs is poised to take over from the departing Jean de Villiers at inside centre for the Springboks. It’s hardly surprising, given that Bok coach Peter de Villiers used Jacobs at 12 back in the duo’s Valke days, with great success. [...]
Pienaar and Jacobs WILL start
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about Peter de Villiers, it’s that he follows his own mind and back his players to the hilt. It’s for these reasons that I am virtually 100% sure that both Ruan Pienaar and Adrian Jacobs will be in the starting lineup when the Springbok team to face the All Blacks in Durban is announced. [...]
Boks unchanged for Scotland test
Bakkies Botha and Adrian Jacobs have both been passed fit to take their places in an unchanged Bok 22 to face Scotland this weekend. [...]
Adi Jacobs is fine
Good news, chaps. Adrian Jacobs is not badly hurt at all and won’t be coming home. [...]
Chatting to Adi Jacobs
Johann Muller may be the Sharks’ captain, but it was a few words of wisdom from World Cup-winning Springbok skipper John Smit that really raised the Durban-based team’s spirits ahead of their Currie Cup Final showdown with the Blue Bulls on Saturday. [...]
