Hi, Sharks fans
First off, well done to the lads on a brilliant result against the Lions on Saturday. I was at the game and had my heart in my mouth for one or two moments, but the Sharks showed composure to get the win, and they will be all the better on Saturday for a hard-earned victory. […]
The Springbok touring squad for the trip to the Antipodes has been announced, with Curwin Bosch being released back to the Sharks for Currie Cup duty. […]
Sharks wing Lwazi Mvovo and Sevens star cum Worcester scrumhalf Francois Hougaard are the new faces to the Springbok group that is set to tour Australia and New Zealand. […]
Willem Alberts, who was withdrawn on the eve of the Bok tour to Argentina due to a nerve problem in his back, has had to undergo an operation and will thus play no part in the team’s 2014 Rugby Championship campaign. […]
The Golden Lions team to take on the EP Kings in Currie Cup tomorrow has had to be changed. […]
Two members of the Sharks XV will fly to Australasia to join up with the Sharks touring party, with yet another Lions also set to join the party. […]
Lions prop JC Janse van Rensburg has been summoned to join the Springbok tour party ahead of Saturday’s test against England. […]

The Springbok tour squad to contest the away leg of the 2011 Castle Tri-Nations series has just been named. Sharks captain John Smit will lead a 27-man squad to the Antipodes that includes no fewer than eight other Sharks players. […]
Given the unfolding drama surrounding the composition of the Springbok touring side to playing the away leg of the Tri-Nations, John Plumtree looks likely to be without all 14 of his called-up stars for the opening Currie Cup fixture against the Blue Bulls next Saturday in Durban. The latest “casualty” was Jean Deysel, who went from not being in the picture to a virtual certainty to tour within the space of 8 hours. […]
Sharks scrumhalf Charl McLeod has been rewarded for his utterly outstanding domestic form this season by being called up to the Springbok tour squad. Team mate Odwa Ndungane and Lions hooker Bandise Maku have also been summoned to return the tour party to 30 players, following the loss of Bryan Habana, Bjorn Basson and Chilliboy Rallepele. […]
Adi Jacobs has been called up to the Bok tour squad as a precautionary measure and may well go on tour, depending on the fitness of other centres in the squad. […]
Here at Sharksworld we pride ourselves on being able to get up close and personal with the lads who wear the black and white jersey with pride every weekend. Our latest victim is none other than big lock Alistair Hargreaves, who we managed to corner for 10 questions. […]
Looking at the disaster that the Bok tour has been so far, it’s pretty tough to find any positives. With almost half of the squad having now been sent home, let’s have a critical look at the midweek Boks and see if we have actually made any progress at all. […]
