While many teams would be floored by a serious injury to their second-choice flyhalf just weeks after their first-choice had been ruled out for the year, for the Sharks, Saturday’s unfortunate injury to Fred Zeilinga open up a number of options for the coaching staff, most of which are rather enticing indeed.

On Pat’s injury…
26 Mar 14 11:08 by Maria Delport (Letgo) | 29 Comments
I keep refreshing my browser hoping for a different result. Or a correction of the horrible, horrible error that was made. Lambie isn’t really out for the entire season, is he? Not maybe just an early cruel April Fools joke, no? [...]
Oh hindsight, you wonderful thing!

Once again it’s time to run the rule over the Sharks, after recording a decent win over the Reds.

JP back (for real this time)
10 Mar 14 11:26 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 27 Comments
Ok, ok – so I’ve already owned up to getting this one wrong, but let me do it again just for the record. I completely misunderstood the JP Pietersen situation and reported, incorrectly, that he would be back with the Sharks a full three weeks before it actually happened. [...]
