After taking a handy 21-10 lead midway through the first half, the Sharks ultimately succumbed to a superior WP display to lose Saturday’s Currie Cup final 21-33 in Durban. John Dobson’s team scored 18 unanswered points in the second half to completely eclipse their hosts. […]

Province hand Sharks food for thought ahead of semi-final
15 Oct 17 11:08 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 27 Comments
The Sharks appeared to have matter under control, with a handy 13-3 lead against Western Province by half time in Saturday’s final Currie Cup pool match in Durban. Some lacklustre play in the second period allowed their desperate visitors in for four tries, however, and they surrendered their proud undefeated home record in going down 20-31. […]

I was all set to start writing some pieces about the state of the Sharks squad and trying to work out where there might be depth issues ahead of next year. Before I do that, though, I wanted to share some news about potential new signings that might change the picture a little. […]

While it’s tempting to say that the Sharks’ final Currie Cup match – away to the Lions in Johannesburg in a fortnight – is the one that will have the most direct bearing on the Sharks’ semi-final prospects, another game this weekend could have an equally big bearing. It’s one that they won’t even play in, either! […]
Du Preez masterminds Sharks’ defeat
