Milestones? What milestones
I guess this was bound to happen to us sooner or later. I’m afraid to say there really aren’t any significant (or otherwise) Currie Cup milestones to talk about for the Sharks this week. [...]

Sharks v WP: by the numbers
The Sharks bounced back in fine style to win against both Western Province and woeful rookie ref Louwrens van der Merwe, in the pouring rain at Newlands on Friday night. Let’s have a look at the match statistics, kindly provided by www.ruggastats.com. [...]

A timely injection? (Or unwanted disruption)
It’s three rounds into the 2011 Currie Cup and the Sharks are sitting pretty, having won all three of their games to date. More impressively, though, two of those games have been against fellow “top five” opposition, with a squad containing close to a dozen players who are playing their first full season of Currie Cup rugby. [...]

Battle Royale
The Sharks travel to Coca Cola Park this weekend in what is yet another must win match for the coastal team. (What I do not understand about that saying is which team will go into a game and allow themselves to lose it? But anyway) The Lions team, back from a better than expected tour of the Antipodes, are filled to the brim with ex Sharks players, much as the Sharks have their fair share of Lions in there. Should make for some interesting individual battles. [...]
