Sharks contract renewals pick up steam
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. […]
Sharks launch 2018 jerseys
The Sharks have opted for evolution rather than revolution for 2018’s Super Rugby jerseys, today revealing a very refined and frankly AWESOME set of designs. […]
The problem with player ratings…
I’ve been having a little to and fro on Twitter over the last couple of days, regarding the decision of a popular rugby portal to crowd source weekly player ratings from fans and then use these ratings as the basis of articles that they carry. Given that it’s very hard to really get your point across in snippets of 140 characters, I’ve decided to try and put down my side of the argument in a more reasoned (and hopefully more coherent) format here.

Battle of the networks translates to R14k per Sharks try
Competition between large organizations battling for the same market segment can often have beneficial effects for consumers; if say, they force one another to lower prices or offer more benefits in order to attract business from one another. Just occasionally, though, there’s a beneficial effect for charity too and that’s exactly what’s happened this year, with Sharks headline sponsor Cell C opting to match Super Rugby tournament sponsor Vodacom Rand for Rand.

What they had to say: Sharks vs Cheetahs, Round 10
What a horrible feeling. We didn’t win, but it certainly feels like we lost. It’s almost a relief that the season has finally come to an end. […]
What they had to say: Sharks vs Bulls, Round 8

What they had to say: Sharks vs Lions, Round 7
Hi Sharks and Bok fans. I think it’s safe to say we’re at an all-time low. We seem to be lacking proper coaches at both national and provincial level, with Eddie Jones highlighting just how important proper coaching is. Let’s get into the articles… […]
How did we get here?
I’m going to do something a little different today. I ended up in an intriguing Twitter conversation yesterday with a follower who set out a very detailed timeline and analysis of the Sharks’ current situation. With his permission, I’m going to share that entire analysis here (collating no fewer than 17 tweets in the process) for you all to digest and discuss.
