Brok Harris playing again. This have to be history.

Kwaste 25-13

Sharks and WP fell short this weekend. Sharks were unlucky trying to run it at the end and conceding the try. No points either side and no change in the log

Thought the Lions moved up

I'm glad to see WP and Griquas have sorted out their jersey clash, after playing against each other for 600 years.

Bulls to strong for Kwaste. Difference between CC & URC

Sharks completely surprising me, their fans and themselves

I've been waiting for Fleurs to get a start to see how he performs. He looks like he is thinking in the right direction, his execution is just not good enough. I can understand why we have not seen much of him. I hope he fulfills his potential. Waiting to see the replacement hooker. Poached from the Cape

Wow............just wow

Welcome to the Sharks Venter...from die Kaap

Sharks struggling after the cards.

What a performance. Down to 13 men and the Sharks beat the Pumas......guts

WP should be the big movers this weekend. They play the Griffons. Should be a 5 pointer in the bag. Will leapfrog the Sharks by a point

Unless the player he was discussing never made the squad. Apparently just moved to the most proffessional union in the republic. I just read something about being thrown straight into the action....or I really am going senile and my wifes not joking

$hark$ now poached the Cheetahs flyhalf. They"ll end up with a backline of misused flyhalfs from all over the country.

Masuku is born and bred in KZN. He's coming home.

Meanwhile the Cheetahs are signing a Yank to play for them. But that's ok.
