Multi-national panel for Sharks against Jaguares
5 Apr 17 09:45 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 20 Comments
After the nightmare performance last week of what I’ll name the “platteland quartet” up in Johannesburg, the Sharks will, I’m sure, be pleased that this weekend’s home fixture against the Jaguares will be handled by a cosmopolitan and distinctly neutral refereeing panel. […]

Sharks pack set up epic Newlands triumph
13 Mar 16 10:12 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 423 Comments
The Sharks forwards outperformed their more fancied Stormers counterparts at Newlands yesterday to lay the platform on which an unexpected, but very welcome, 18-13 upset victory was built. All the talk in the build up had centred around the strength of the Cape pack, particularly at the set piece, but it was the men in black who turned up to play on the day, turning in a flawless performance at both lineout and scrum time, as well as bringing more aggression to the point of contact. […]

Plenty of questions about early NMB try
29 Feb 16 11:38 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 60 Comments
I’m coming close to breaking my own rule about referees here, but I wanted to point out some rather worrying inconsistencies in the way the new maul “interpretation” was applied in PE this weekend. While it may seem a little petty to complain about a Kings try, when the Sharks scored six in return, all we really ask here is for consistency from the match officials and I genuinely don’t feel we got that on Saturday. […]
Time to bury the ref hatchet
23 Feb 16 10:42 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 28 Comments
The refereeing appointments for the first round of Super Rugby 2016 have been announced and I was all set to have another whinge about the Sharks’ dreadful luck. I’ve decided, though, that it’s time to rather try a fresh approach. […]
