Bad start to the season. Sharks should improve from this and come back nicely.

+1, if the Sharks can play 60-80 minutes of the rugby they played in the last 10 minutes they should see a semi final.

Yeah seeing some of those passes float behind/at the feet of the intended recipient really got to me... Our plan seemed solid, but execution let us down.

On the positive though, it seemed that some of the noobs/new signs played pretty well. I'm happy with out team also knowing we should have some decent injections when the injured come back.

The fact that Alberts and Deysel will be coming in sooner rather than later will be a huge boost for the Sharks.

I think both the Bulls and the Sharks could be happy that the other team also had a bad day at the office or else the game could have ended in a 20 -30 point routing to either side :o

Agreed. Neither team impressed.

Agreed +1
I also think Beast add's a lot to our scrum (not that it wasn't solid already - but still) so yeah, we have a lot of talent coming back from injury.

I never really remember the beginning of each season, but I keep getting told the Sharks build up steam.... start badly and finish well.... so here's for a REAL quick buildup :D

That light loose trio is a worry, I won't lie ......... we'll have to adapt a very fast running game to keep from being out-muscled for sure.
 
Not too many changes. Looking forward to players returning from injury.
 
Without Alberts you guys look a tad light in the ball carrier department with Alberts completely out.

Is this the team for this weekend?

Last weekend Michalak gave a very poor performance as scrummie. He was positively glacial. At one point 3 relatively slow rucks happened on the other end of the field before he arrived. Disgraceful. The minute he left the field the pace of the game changed. I'm disappointed to see him back in that number 9 jersey.

Yes it is the team for the weekend (added a date to my post).

Did not know you watched rugby porch. Are you a sharks supporter?

BoT: Yes McLeod played a lot better than Freddy (even though I hate to admit it as I think McLeod is a waste of space). McLeod kept the Sharks back line on the front fot with quicker and cleaner delivery as well as a couple of darts himself.

Man I am all about rugby. Super Rugby especially.

I was born in Natal and while I don't live there any longer I am still a Sharks supporter and I doubt that is ever going to change.

I think McLoed and Michalak are a case of making the best of a bad situation. The Sharks haven't had a decent scrummie for a while now.

I think Kockott had momentary flashes of brilliance but he was so hot-and-cold that I'm not surprised he is gone. When he was off man he ruined whole games.
 
If we can get a win this weekend, our confidence will be sky high before taking on the Lions and then heading overseas. I hope we get the basics right and use the talent we have accordingly.
 
Even if they did, I think it would go in one ear and come right back out the other.

If they absolutely have to play him, they should do it in a position where he can't screw up all that much. Like maybe flanker or even ballboy. Personally I think he is the most over-rated rugby player since Theo Van Rensburg and that Gavin Johnson dude... Most of the time he can't even find the jumpers at the line-out.
 
Lambie not having a good start to the season. Seems very indecisive and unphysical on attack. I'll bet you he has a girlfriend calling the shots now.
