Hi, Bok fans
We are in for a rich helping of international fixtures in the coming weeks. […]
We need to get our heads around the newly-old 15-team Super Rugby format for next year, with the fixtures announced this morning. […]
Two Sharks teams will take on their Cheetahs counterparts in what is sure to be a fun evening of rugby in Umlazi next weekend. […]
I’m sure I’m feeling much the same as many of you this morning, having watched in slow-motion horror as the past weekend’s Currie Cup fixtures conspired to turn out in the wort possible fashion for the Sharks. […]
Smile because the Sharks don’t face any Kiwi teams in 2017! Cry because the same idiotic Super Rugby format has been retained. That about sums it up for us, I reckon, as we peruse the 2017 fixture list sent out by SANZAAR this morning. I think we missed International Talk Like a Pirate Day, but what the hell…. […]
Come on, Guns’n’Roses fans – complete the title for me! […]
As Sharks fans, we tend to have a rosy notion about Loftus Versveld being a happy hunting ground for our team and while this may be the case in Currie Cup rugby, looking at the history between the Sharks and Bulls in Super Rugby, nothing could be further from the truth. […]
While history is not always an accurate predictor of future events, it’s often not a particularly bad one, either. With the Sharks heading to Cape Town this weekend to take on the Stormers in a match in which the Durban side will rightly be considered underdogs, historical precedent suggests the game might be rather more difficult to call. […]
We have three Antipodean fixtures lined up before heading to South Africa. […]
Hi Sharks fans. Well, kick-off time is fast approaching, and, as has become the norm, there will be a large amount of warm up games played in an attempt by the various franchises to hit the ground running. […]
Let’s play armchair selector and try help the Sharks coaches out a little. […]
With talk of the once-famous Currie Cup possibly being relegated to Vodacom Cup status and running alongside the ever-expanding Super Rugby competition, I thought maybe we could look at how the Currie Cup could benefit from this change. […]
Five rounds into this year’s Currie Cup competition, the Sharks find themselves in fourth spot on the overall competition log, thanks in no small part to a scrappy, yet dogged, 27-26 win over the Pumas at Kings Park on Saturday. […]
While there may be some rather significant obstacles in the path of the Sharks, who will seek to finally capture a Super Rugby trophy in 2015 – the last year before the competition as we know it disappears – should they fail to do so, they won’t be able to use their draw as an excuse. […]
The Sharks have not given up their 1st place since the start of this competition and that is how they would like to keep it. Everyone knows that winning this competition starts with securing at least a home semi-final, although the record of past winners would suggest that top of the log is the best place to be when the play-offs start.
