Then why is JL Potgieter on his way to the Sharks? Or is only Pienaar included in this rivalry. This is a professional era and if they pay enough, any player will leave. Just look at all the Cheetahs/Lions flocking to Durban.Pienaar won't join the Bulls because of the rivalry between the countries 2 top sides. Please name me a Shark that's currently playing for the Bulls or visa-versa?
And yes, I agree they messed up Brent Russels career by not specialising him in 1 position. But in Lambie's case that won't happen, he will play center for the rest of this season and maybe next season. Andre Pretorius, Jaques-Louie Potgieter and Len Olivier will cover Fly-half. Terblanche and Ludick will cover Full-Back.
Do you think Terblanche has another season in him?
How can you be so sure about him playing centre for a prolonged period?
Just check when injury strikes and they move him around to fill the gaps.
In any case, Zane Kirchner has alot to learn from the young,resilient Patrick Lambie. It's Lambie who should be wearing the no.15 Green and Gold jersey.
I'm not the biggest Kirchner fan but he is a solid fullback. Makes mistakes like any other player but solid in all aspects of the game. Why would you want to rush Lambie into the Bok squad anyway?
So the Sharks should play him at centre? The Boks should play him on fullback? And half the country wants him to play flyhalf. Sounds like Brent Russel to me.
I unfortunately missed the game because I was covering Affies vs Glenwood school rugby, but I made sure to congratulate all the Sharks fans on the win. I heard Lambie had a great game. Congrats.P.S Hope you managed to catch the Sharks destroy the Cheetahs in the last 10 min this past weekend?
Anyway. Lets discuss this in the General Rugby thread because we're not discussing the Bulls at all now.
