It’s always darkest before the new broom sweeps in the dawn (or something)

Not the best headline I’ve ever come up with, you’ll agree, but since it’s Friday, I hope you’ll look past that and read a little further.

My 2012 Sharks wish-list revisited
8 Aug 12 11:19 by André Meyer (Culling Song) | 25 Comments
At the start of the year I published an article expressing a sense of optimism over the 2012 edition of SupeRugby. However, as that had not been the first time where I entered a season with a rose-tinted outlook, only to emerge at the tail end in the throes of depression and frustration, I opted to focus on some outcomes (other than a trophy) that I was hoping for in 2012.

Battered, but proud

Saluting the brave Sharks ladies

They say that behind every successful man, you’ll find a supportive woman and in the case of the Sharks, that couldn’t be more true (well, for the most part). [...]
Can they do it?

In terms of historical precedent, the Sharks, in qualifying for this weekend’s Super Rugby Final from sixth position, have gone well outside of the bounds of anything that has every happened in the past – and to be honest, have already done more than anyone really thought possible. [...]
Support for the Sharks

Fans – the Sharks are in the Super Rugby Final for the first time in five years. It’s taken a truly Herculean effort to get there and they face an uphill battle, playing away in Hamilton, against an in-form Chiefs team also desperate for their first-ever title win. [...]
