Sharks contract renewals pick up steam
11 Dec 17 11:22 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 98 Comments
The Sharks have decided to keep us going through December by drip-feeding information regarding player contract renewals. It’s a pretty good way to keep the interest simmering and prevent a glut of good news all on one day, followed by nothing. […]

The rugby gods giveth and those same gods taketh away and Sharks XV coach Paul Anthony will certainly feel that he’s being made to pay a heavy price for last week’s bounty.
