With 24 hours to go before we are in Super Rugby season we have to look at what we want achieved in the next day before we are immersed in more rugby than our spouses think we can handle.
First and foremost is getting on over to SuperBru and getting in the biggest Sharksworld pool ever formed. The pool code is GAFFBRED and is open to anybody.
Secondly, the JustRugby.net fantasy league and Last Man Standing competitions are closing at 6am tomorrow morning, so any last minute changes have to be done during today, or you are certain to miss cut off. This will entail going through every single team announced over the last few days and making sure that your team is complete to gain maximum points. A good start in the Fantasy League is non-negotiable.
Now, for those of you that work on a Friday, like most of you should, will have to either invest a few bucks in a Drifta mcgafter or make sure that your internet cap is far from reached, as following the rugby with live updates and following here on Sharkworld can take its toll. Either that, or take some leave to watch it live from home.
All of this should get you through most of today, but I hear you ask: “What am I supposed to do tonight when I cannot sleep because I am so excited for the rugby?” Well, tonight is the night to make sure the important people/family/spouses/kids etc are given your full attention as this will be the last time it happens until July 10, when there is a short family break before we head into the Tri Nations 2 weeks later. Use tonight wisely, it could save your marriage.
So guys and girls, make the most of today, as it is the last rugby-free day for a few months. Enjoy!

I can’t wait!!! Luckily I’m a bachelor, so no need for me to be scaredof watching the rugga. Can’t wait for the shouts at the ref, the jumping up at the slight hint of a try, all the beer and biltong that’s going to be consumed. Man I’m getting goose bumps just thinking about it.
Unbelievable few months ahead. Any rugby fan should battle to sleep tonight. And every Thurs night from here on in.
@Speed7 (Comment 2) :
And to top it all you have a cricket world cup kicking off in two days time..
And iam a massive Spurs supporter so watch plenty of Premiership stuff. Sending the goose for a spa day.
Holy shit I can’t wait!!! 🙂
@Speed7 (Comment 4) :
Who are Spurs playing on the weekend?
you better send her for the next few weekends.. lol
Its Blackpool away and West Ham at home. Inbetween those games is the return vs Milan.
@Speed7 (Comment 7) :
You must be pretty stoked about their return to decent form.
Hope they beat Milan and advance to be honest..
Ja of course. Need Bale and Huddlestone back for the run-in though. Squad size really helped so far.
When I upgrade my contract phone in August, I’m gonna get me a new DVB-H enabled phone and I’m never gonna miss another game 😛 Just wish I could get it sooner.
Luckily my girlfriend loves rugby as much as me so its all good lmao
Just joined super bru and sharksworld pool 😉
@Poisy (Comment 12) :
Welcome dude..
Looking forward to a good season.
@Speed7 (Comment 4) : 😐 not nice to call your wife a “goose” there are wives and mothers on this blog..so show some respect, please.
This is going to put a serious strain on my new relationship. 😐 The first rugby season since we have been together. Only hooked up after the sharks won the currie cup last year. wish me luck
@Speed7 (Comment 4) :
Its been a awesome couple of days for the North London clubs.
Awesome display by Arsenal to come from behind and beat Barcelona .. keeps me going till the rugby starts.
@FerrisWJ (Comment 15) :
Haha prepare for some sacrifice, make it thru this season and you have done well 😛
@FerrisWJ (Comment 15) :
Good Luck! Maybe you can make her into a fan…a lot of us went down that road, and now, I think, are more fanatical about rugby than the men who intrduced us to the game 😆
She loves being called goose by the way. Everyone in our social circle calls her goose. Its not disrespectful at all.
6 AM People. ❗
We don’t want any complaint emails. We’re just gonna say.
SORRY we told you so. 😛
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 3) :
And a reading night at school on the evening of the Sharks’ first game in 2011. 👿
Don’t tell me everybody is making predictions, finalizing FL squads, stocking the bar fridge etc etc. What have you all been doing the last month? Sleeping? 😉 😛
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 22) :
Quiet before the storm.
I was going to do my FL finalisation this afternoon now we are getting visitors. 🙁
Will be burning the midnight oil tonight.
@KSA Shark © (Comment 23) : Ouch!
I still have to finalize my squad aswell, will do it this afternoon.
Lions squad named,Pat Cilliers gets a start
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 25) : good for him. Hope he gives Gurthro some food for thought.
@Speed7 (Comment 19) : OK…sorry…but if you had spelt it with a capital “G” would have realised it was a nic 😳
Yeah its a shame we lost Pat, but I hope he has an awesome career at the Kittens, he deserves that much
Ok I’m ready for this, bring it on! 😛 Is anyone 100% satisfied with their FL squad? I’m not 😳
The countdown is over:superrugby is on!
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 25) : Pleased for Cilliers.
