Mr BMT sneaks another win for Sharks XV
It’s a real pity that the majority of Sharks fans won’t get to see much Vodacom Cup rugby this season, because my feeling is that we’re missing the emergence of a future superstar. [...]
Sharks XV keep up the momentum
Vodacom Cup flyhalf Fred Zeilinga once again underlined his credentials, as the Sharks XV recorded yet another close, but significant, win on Saturday. Zeilinga’s goal-kicking and all-round play were a big factor in the side’s 34-33 win over Free State at Kings Park on Saturday afternoon. [...]
Sharks XV fly the flag
It may have been a dark day for the Sharks Super Rugby side in Durban on Saturday, but there was a little joy earlier in the day when Jandre Marais led the Sharks XV to a scrappy, but hugely significant, 24-23 win over reigning Vodacom cup champions Western Province in Cape Town. [...]

Sharks XV side taking shape

Kleinhans blow ahead of semi
Sharks under 21 coach Sean Everitt has named his side to take on Western Province in Saturday’s semi-final, a game that will serve as the curtain-raiser to the big Currie Cup clash between the Sharks and the Blue Bulls at Kings Park. Experienced loose forward Francois Kleinhans, though, will sit the match out as the result of an injury picked up against the Leopards last week. [...]

Bastew to show his wares
Sharks under 21 coach Sean Everitt has been dealt something of a bitter blow ahead of his side’s clash with the Blue Bulls at Loftus tomorrow afternoon; both his leading points scorer, flyhalf Fred Zeilinga and understudy Gavin Hauptfleisch have been ruled out of action this week due to injury.
