Yes.
Well, we better. I'm sure they won't want another loss and will throw a lot at the Lions. Seriously if we lose this game, attendance at Kings Park will be an all time low for the rest of the Super season.

OK, I'll bite. Please don't disappoint.
haha I've lost out on Superbru points these last 2 weeks by picking the Sharks. I feel dirty if I choose the opposition to win
I'm picking Sharks again but I cannot promise anything

Mitchell vs Plumtree again.
After the CC final last year, Sharks have got some points to prove. I don't expect it will be an easy game for them and to be honest, it will surprise me if they put the Lions to the sword. The discipline will be a key factor with Jantjies' kicking, so if Plumtree has any smarts he won't be picking B.Du Plessis in the starting lineup.
Let's see what happens.

Wrong thread.
I'm guessing you meant to post this in the Cheetahs thread
Could only have been intended for the non-existent Cheetahs thread. That was an absolutely piss-poor performance by the Bryce-wannabe. I only caught the first half of the Sharks game though - looked pretty okay to me.
Also, we won. So the ref must have been on song...

No, definitely meant the Sharks - Lions game.
The first Sharks try came off a Sharks hand forward from the up and under, their try at the end of the first half also came forward off a sharks hand at the lineout and Mvovo's foot was out in the corner before he scored. What about Butch's "forward" pass. There were a lot of dubious decisions in the game.
I watched the game with a die-hard, outspoken Lions' supporter and he didn't choice any of your 'concerns'. I thought the game was fairly well reffed.
If there is a game to comment on about biased decisions, the Cheetahs game would be the one

Yeah I heard nothing from 2 serious Sharks haters about any sketchy reffing? I'll see if I can watch it again somehow and try spot these 'biased' calls

There was really a lack of cameras for the try line decisions. I mean they only had 2 angles to work with. One would think there'd be 3 or 4. Mvovs one was a bit touch and go, I thought it was a try. The Lions try needed another angle. Sykes held the ball up when the Lions player went to touch it down.
Oh well.. next week we'll have to perform even better against the Reds.

Is it just me or does anyone else think that Plumtree has overstayed his welcome? It concerns me that Plumtree cannot do more with the players he has at his disposal. On paper the Sharks should be able to crush just about any other team imo.
If I look back on our losses, I cannot attribute them to poor tactics, players in the wrong positions or poor team cohesion. I attribute them mostly to simple mistakes made by individuals. I've got no problems with Plumtree.
I'd love to see Grant Bashford given the reigns at some point but I'm a little biased towards Bashy...
