The Sharks will never win if they keep kicking the ball away which everyone seemingly like to do.

Look how good Grant Williams is when he plays quick and spots the gaps but instead game after game, they will make this long line at rucks and box kick into nowhere. Very frustrating and boring to watch. I think it's a coaching thing. There is absolutely no way a coach can sit and watch the game and not see what everyone else see so he does see it but just doesn't anything about it.
 
Curwin Bosch. Jirre his kicks down field today was the difference for me. Every single one lead to a counter attack.

5 Minutes left, Sharks win the scrum, Stormers have 13 men on the field, of which 8 was in the scrum. What does he do? Kick it down field

It just doesn't make sense. There was so many gaps to exploit and Penxe was good. He was ready to run but this idiot kicks the ball down field and out on the full for the cherry on the cake. Useless.

You sharks fans are always so negative, I mean you were playing the greatest team this country has ever produced.;)

The sharks did fine. I’m surprised you guys aren’t blaming the ref.
 
Bulls?

Lions are suddenly looking really good but they show up when they are all about just knocked out of the top 8...
 
Plum heading back to Durban?

Former Cell C Sharks John Plumtee could shorty be back working out of HollywoodBets Kings Park as the Durban franchise looks to shake up its coaching structures going forward. Neil Powell, the Sharks’ director of rugby and currently doubling as head coach following the departure of Sean Everitt in late October, told the post-match press conference following the Sharks’ defeat to the DHL Stormers in Cape Town at the weekend that an announcement will be made on a new coach in the coming weeks.

“We obviously have some people in mind that will come in at the end of the season,” said Powell. “That is going pretty well and the people we are talking to will be able to take the Sharks to the next level. We will go with a combination of what we have and what we have tried to establish already as a foundation. We are in a good space in terms of that. Hopefully we will be able to announce the new coaching structures in the next few weeks or so.”

It is understood that Plumtree is the man in the Sharks’ sights. He was in South Africa last October and met with Sharks role-players then, but it went quiet after that, presumably because the Sharks wanted to see if Powell, who was an outstanding Sevens coach but is new to the conventional 15-man game, could make it on his own as head coach.

Currie Cup is on.

I don't think we need a 1st Division curry cup to be honest. Why not throw all the teams in one pool and let them fight for the cup?

The currie cup is a bit watered down now since we have so many leagues going.
 
Italy is not looking good against Wales. Disappointing really...
 
Eddie's not that kind of guy, but a lesser being/sacked coach would be laughing themselves sick at England right now...
