With the event set to kick off for the first time this weekend, let’s have a look at the squads and possible contenders for the 1 million rand prize. [...]

NBM 7′s Premier League Preview
Legends return to Kings Park en masse
John Smit will play on the hallowed Kings Park turf one last time this evening, as he leads his Barney’s Army Invitational XV onto the pitch that he has played on with distinction innumerable times over the last 15 years or so. [...]
Kockott returns to Shark Tank (but read on…)
John Smit has revealed most of the squad that will play in his Barney’s Army testimonial game at Kings Park on Friday night; one name that I wasn’t expecting to see belongs to former Sharks scrumhalf Rory Kockott. [...]
Botes linked with Ulster move
According to our friends over at The Front Row Union, Sharks flanker Jacques Botes may be the latest in a long line of players set to swap Kings Park in Durban for Ravenhill in Belfast. [...]
Boots – you legend!
A lot has already been written about fan favourite Jacques Botes reaching a milestone of 100 Super Rugby caps for the Sharks, but we’d like to weigh in with our own little tribute to the great man as well. [...]
Farewell Oom Stef
Former Sharks winger/fullback/centre Stefan Terblanche has called time on his career, and fittingly so, in front of a near full Twickenham in the Heineken Cup final this past weekend. [...]
The Missing Link
And no, I’m not talking about Willem Alberts. Something is missing in the Sharks team in 2012 and I’ve decided to venture an opinion on what it might be. [...]
Stef’s Belfast stay extended
They love their Sharks boys up at Ravenhill in Belfast, with Johann Muller, Ruan Pienaar and now also Stefan Terblanche quickly going on to become favourites with the Ulster faithful. [...]
But Changes, there must be!
I would replace Keegan with just about anyone else. His last good game for the Sharks was of the bench against the Bulls at Kings Park 2 years ago when he snatched victory from the Bulls with a great chip and chase try. Then again, that’s [...]
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. [...]
Terblanche poised for Ulster debut
After waiting for what seems like an age for all his paperwork to be finalised, Stefan Terblanche has finally arrived in Northern Ireland and started training with his new Ulster team mates yesterday. [...]
No new deal for Jacobs?
Talk coming out of Durban suggests that veteran centre Adrian Jacobs has not been contracted by the Sharks for the 2012 season. [...]
Terblanche calls time on Sharks career
Stefan Terblanche has officially ended the speculation regarding his future by confirming that he will leave the Sharks to join Ulster on a short-term contract. [...]
Dead-eye Elton nails Sharks in one-sided final
Young flyhalf Elton Jantjies came within a whisker of breaking Derick Hougaard’s record for most points in a Currie Cup Final yesterday, as he scored 24 in a perfect kicking display that consigned the Sharks to the also-ran scrapheap in this year’s competition. Josh Strauss’s Lions team broke a 12-year trophy-less streak in winning their first title since 1999. [...]
40,30,20,10…
Saturday’s Currie Cup Final against the Lions will see a number of players celebrating personal milestones, yet will sadly also be the last one in Sharks colours for two of the squad. [...]
