I’m not even going to apologise for it. I’m just going to come out and shamelessly say it. I still believe the Sharks can make the playoffs and even win this competition. [...]

Sharks (fans) feeling the Blues
I’m sure most of us are starting to feel the blues by now, with the Sharks only able to win 3 of their first 7 games so far in this year’s Super Rugby competition. (Blues – a feeling of depression or deep unhappiness). [...]
Who’s been rucking it?
One of the comments that came through this week was that the Sharks need to do some work at the ruck, getting quick and clean ball.

A big thank you to…
This is just a really short post to raise some points on which, I’m sure, we will elaborate further during the week. It will occur to many of you that many of the results that I requested in my somewhat optimistic article on Thursday actually came through for us this weekend. [...]
Picking the results
It’s time for another round of “bye round politics”, where we put in our wishlist for how we want this weekend’s game to go. With the Sharks guaranteed four points courtesy of their second bye, how would we ideally want things to unfold to their best advantage in round 13? [...]
