There’s been a hell of a lot of debate here over the last few days, after the Sharks blew a handy-seeming lead against the Waratahs and crumpled to yet another agonising loss in the city where so many other campaigns have faltered. So what happened? Let’s see if we can reach some consensus. […]

While the teams have typically been fairly evenly-matched on paper over the period, the modern-era Sharks have only won once in Sydney – back in 2000 – and have seen a number of promising campaigns fall on hard times in Australia’s largest city.
