Ludik to keep backline from doing anything again i guess but go sharks !!!!
We can only hope that du Toit and Whitehead click into form suddenly.
It is only 3 o clock and only club rugby left…. Where is the big rugby :)….. LOL good luck Sharks…. Go Sharkies ( don’t let the WP top the log)
Come on Sharks! Make this weekend bearable! 🙂
Anyone have a stream?

Will need Veetle player
Sharks 3 Kwas 0
Quite a bit of time off due to a real nasty ankle injury to a kwas player falling awkwardly.
???
Sharks 3 Kwas 6. Sorry missed the first kwas penalty.
@gregkaos (Comment 8) : Thanks. Much better stream than the Powerpoint show I was watching.
Penalty taken quickly Charl gains 10 meters but kwas had not retreated. Butch slots the kick.
SHarks 6 Kwas 6
How the hell is Butch James still starting for us?????
I could do better tactical kicking and I’m a middle-aged retired, second rate lock.
Penalty for kwas.
Sharks 6 Kwas 9
Another penalty. Eish. Sharks discipline letting us down.
Sharks 6 Kwas 12
Looks like it’s a weekend for long standing elusive victories…
So having said that my bru predictions is in serious trouble today!
Penalty and James goes for touch instead of points. Poor throw in in line out and Kwas out of jail too easily but after a long passage of play Sharks try! Maseko scores!
Awesome offload by Daniels.
James misses conversion
Sharks 11 Kwas 12
James WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👿 👿 👿 👿
keep the updates coming, thanks guys
I can’t even get I into this sharks game, I’m still pissed off about the bok game
Ouens the kwaste body language shows believe in themselves that they can stop us all afternoon today!
Penalty to kwas and they go for touch instead of posts. Kwas try.
Sharks 11 Kwas 17
Something dodgy with that try. Looked like Charl was tackled to make a gap for the Kwas attacking player?
That is terrible reffing ..
penalty against us but team warning for repeated infringements to griquas .
Clueless rubbish this. I’m not bothering with this crap.
Put Zeilinga on the field now.
Penalty to sharks. Good passage of play by sharks regularly breaking the gain line. Mainly by Tim. Some poor decisions by them too but James slots the kick.
Sharks 14 Kwas 17
25 offside
@gregkaos (Comment 28) : Thanks for the score updates Greg.
Can’t say I’m very excited about this Sharks Currie Cup team…
I am bored!
Kwas try. Sharks scrummed off their own ball in their 22.
Sharks 14 Kwas 22 or 24. Lost stream right before Brummer takes the relatively easy conversion.
@Son Of Mayhem (Comment 31) : Then how about giving me a score update 🙂
G 24 – 14 S
24 14 to gr
TAKE the FOKKEN points!!!!
@The Great Couch Shark (Comment 30) : Yeah same here. I’m still spitting fire about the Bok AB game 🙁 but I gotta do something to distract myself from dwelling to much on it.
3 pairs of eyes and they are still freaking blind!!!! :annoyed:
Is the penalty count into tripple didgets yet
Penalty to sharks. Chadwick on in place of Herbst. Good pressure from the Sharks
Zeilinga misses badly.
Another penalty for Sharks Schoeman has now got 5 penalties at the breakdown and no cards shown. Think he finally got a warning…
Zeilinga slots.
Sharks 17 Kwas 24
How much time left?
Today I decided to go to gym rather than let the sharks stress me out…my luck they have the game on the screens here…can this day get any worse 🙁
I wish Brendan Venter the best of luck for next years Super season if this is the quality of our squad.
Penalty to Sharks. Kwas illegally trying to wheel scrum.
Zeilinga misses again.
Penalty to Sharks again for a late tackle.
Zeilinga slots it.
Sharks 20 Kwas 24 – 65minutes
At last a kick goes over…
Nothing has been done by the ref to stop these repeated penalties
Sorry, this is crap as usual, I’m outa here…
Zeilinga misses a long range penalty. Didn’t see what the penalty was for.
Stream is rubbish.
Why is this team so junk?
Who is the ref?
@Son Of Mayhem (Comment 52) : Peyper.
Figures
OK well if we don’t score now there really is no hope.
Yes!!
Jaco finally shows a bit of backbone and a yellow card to Kwas. Barnes off from remainder
5 min left.
??
Try time for Sharks! TMO takes no time. Great power by Herbst.
Fred missed conversion.
Sharks 25 Kwas 24
Hallooooooooo?
So who won?
Penalty to sharks. Kwas offside shortly after the best maul I’ve seen by the Sharks this CC.
Opting for the corner rather than posts with 2 min left
?????????????
@klempie (Comment 51) : Lots of reasons, mate. But what concerns me is that we don’t seem to have any young superstars coming through. No prodigies like Pat Lambie or Frans Steyn. These youngsters all seem a bit…average.
@Son Of Mayhem (Comment 60) : Seems everyone’s passed out after this morning’s game 🙄
@The Great Couch Shark (Comment 64) : PSdT?
Evidently Fred left his kicking boots back on the bus..
Really the commentating sucks!!!! 👿
@FireTheLooser (Comment 66) : Yes, definitely him. I was thinking more in the backline. Our Super rugby scrum is formidable, but our backs are very weak.
Last play of the game. Kwas put in to the scrum in their 22.
Desperate stuff by Kwas but knockon. Sharks win a scrapheap challenge!
…
Thank god!
Is it fulltime yet?
Who won?
Full time:
Sharks 25 Kwas 24
Whats the final score?
Useless!!!!!!!
@gregkaos (Comment 73) : Thanks again. Cheers
@The Great Couch Shark (Comment 76) : no prob. Kinda fitting that we beat them in the dying stage of the game by 1 point.
Now I have to go support the Bulls. 😉
Well done for the win. Think our game is a bit predictable, if we are going to continue with predetermined moves at certain areas of the field, we need to complete them at pace and not lose possession. Saw an improved service delivery from Cobus. Keep it up.
Nice win Sharks!!!!!
Really now,by 1 point against the bottom of the log stragglers,brilliant Sharks,simply brilliant
Captainless,rudderless,predictableness!
Clueless and gameplanless
@benji (Comment 80) : Better than last year and the year before and the year before. During all those years we lost to the kwas, so in essence there’s already signs of improvement. 😉
