Whilst his charges performed superbly in delivering a proper beating to Border last week, the coach is keen not to let anyone get ahead of themselves, as far tougher opposition await in the form of reining champions Western Province.

In a pretty bizarre case of the wheel turning, Sean Everitt has been able to include four specialist open-side flanks in his Sharks under 21 squad to face Western Province this weekend – whereas just a few weeks back he had none whatsoever and was forced to send an SOS to out-of-favour Bulls player Murray Bondesio.

Sharks spread a little thin… for now
15 Aug 12 11:00 by Richard Ferguson (Richard Ferguson) | 7 Comments
The Sharks have been fortunate over the past few years, in having a tough time finding spots in the starting line-up for all our loose forwards. That was again the case during the latter part of Super Rugby, where Willem Alberts was picked at lock, so as to accommodate four loosies on the park. Have things changed though? [...]

Sharks take the spoils in fitting farewell to Smit
25 Jun 12 09:41 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 15 Comments
With Friday night’s festival atmosphere at Kings Park dominating proceedings, John Smit’s “Barney’s Army” invitational XV battled to contain a young Sharks outfit, with John Plumtree-s Currie Cup-strength selection prevailing 47-21. On a wonderful evening where so many rugby friendships and memories were celebrated, neither the final scoreline nor (to be fair) the quality of the rugby were ever going to be of much significance.
