Sharks name provisional cricket squad
SUPER 15 PREVIEW
It’s almost that time of year again, when Superugby relegates the other fun stuff we find to do on weekends during the off season to the bin of discarded activities for another 8 months.
The 2012 edition will be no different I imagine, well, it will be different, but not in a dress in women’s clothing and high heels whilst singing the theme song to Airwolf on a table kind of way. [...]
Intense competition for starting spots
Sharks skipper Keegan Daniel has revealed that there’s been a bit of a bun fight going on within the Sharks squad when it comes to deciding on the best possible starting line up. [...]
Leaders in the pack (but what about the backs?)
John Plumtree yesterday ended much of the speculation that has been doing the rounds when he confirmed Keegan Daniel and Bismarck du Plessis as captain and vice captain respectively for the Sharks Super Rugby campaign. While I feel the Sharks have made the right choices – in fact, the obvious choices – from a squad perspective, I’m a little worried about how this might translate into on-field leadership. [...]
And the Sharks Captain is…
Sharks coach John Plumtree has announced his Captain and Vice-Captain for the 2012 Super Rugby series.

Leading from the front
Sharks coach John Plumtree has made it public knowledge that he will select his captain for the season next week sometime, and this got me thinking as to who the candidates could be. My 2 minute self debate ended quite simply with another year under Keegan Daniel. But then I had a few beers with a good mate of mine, and this is what we decided would be best for the Black and White. [...]
Speaking of captaincy…
While we’re pretty quick to point fingers at the Bulls for appointing what many consider to be the wrong captain for their upcoming Super Rugby campaign, it occurs to me that our own beloved Sharks are also in something of an unclear position when it comes to leadership in 2012. [...]
Sharks change one on the bench
The Sharks team for the Currie Cup Final contains only one change on the bench, with Alistair Hargreaves replacing Jacques Botes. [...]
Botes to miss the final cut?
He came onto the field in the 77th minute of last week’s semi-final, earning his 100th Currie Cup cap in the process, but for all his stalwart service over the last 5 years, don’t be too surprised to see Jacques Botes ommitted from the match 22 when coach John Plumtree names his Sharks side for the Currie Cup Final. [...]
Sharks not taking Lions lightly – Daniel
Sharks captain Keegan Daniel has highlighted the Lions’ hunger – driven by a desire to capture a trophy after 12 lean years – as a key factor that the Sharks will need to overcome in order to secure the Currie Cup when the two sides play in Johannesburg on Saturday. [...]
Sharks player ratings: the Semi-Final
Once again, Saturday’s performance against the Cheetahs was one of two halves and if we were to rate the Sharks players based solely on a first-half where they took a 13-3 hammering, there wouldn’t be all that many high numbers. The second half, though, was won to the tune of 17-0 and most of the guys redeemed themselves superbly. Let’s look at the individual performances. [...]
Ton up for Botes
Jacques Botes, named on the bench for the Sharks this weekend, will win his 100th Currie Cup cap for the Durban team should he take the field at any stage during Saturday’s semi-final against the Cheetahs. [...]
Sharks named for semi
Sharks coach John Plumtree has included all of his available Springboks for this weekend’s semi-final clash against the Cheetahs. [...]
Big day for the Hoff
Ryan “the Hoff” Kankowski, if you can believe it, turns only 26 today and will look to turn his birthday weekend into a memorable one by putting in a storming performance on his return to the Sharks side. Kanky has been out for 6 games now, having broken his thumb against the Lions in Johannesburg and the big number 8 will want to exact the perfect revenge against the same opponents in Durban. [...]
Sharks out-muscle Leopards
The Sharks kept their quest for a home semi final alive with a six try to two 41-14 win against the Leopards at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium. [...]
