We will miss Deysel imo.
Jan Smit is cover at hooker?
im surprised no mvovo or carstens in that squad or kockott
@sharky_forever – Kockott’s time at the Sharks is over.
@Loosehead – hooker and prop , think he will come on at tighthead and only cover 2 if injury occurs to bissy
cilliers is covering LH
carstens is being rested as he has a niggle
@Loosehead – who knows , could well be
but i think its wrong as its already said hernandez has a back injury
so what if he cant play ?? ruan surely will move to fly half
@sharky_forever – Is Kockott still carying an injury :doctor: ?
@Snoek – dont think so snoek , aint heard a thing
carstens its said has a niggle and is being rested
@sharky_forever – Kockett seems to be the 3rd choice 9 at the Sharks when they have a reliable goal kicker that starts.
@Loosehead – agreed , but he will regain form , and like i said if hernandez got injured sharks again would be in trouble
du mond is not up to super 14 level as a 10, yes i know he has played quite well of late, but he is not super 14 material
this means ruan moves to 10
also what of m steyn got injured what then??
The Sharks still remains a classy outfit, they have ‘n good team, squad, and system in place. Great dept all round. Gonna be a cracker..
Decent team, but with Jannie Dup on in place of Smit, that front row is not as it could be.
@sharky_forever – 3
Can say that again. Wonder why no Mvovo or Kockott? Thought Mvovo was playing really well.
@Lion4ever – 12
As long as we have John Smit is there even if he is on the bench.
Is Hernandez around for the S14 or will Straulie be looking to buy another 10?
Just read from S_L on the otherside that John Smit is out with a neck injury for two weeks. Really hope its not a serious neck injury.
Damn Sharks going to miss John.
