Mamma Mia that was an awesome game. Congrats to the mighty ocean dwellers, full credit. You donnered the stormpies! Fortunately we just got that one point. May just prove crucial for home semi!
WELL DONE MY SHARKIES…… Now if we had taken those 3 penalties not bonus point for the Weepees.
For sure Piet,Sharks played like Champ’s tonight,very tough to beat at home,they suprised me tonight how well they played,our forwards killed them and their backs could not do anything getting the ball on the back foot as I predicted.. Nobody cares what people say on other sites,John Smit is the greatest captain of all time.. Finished and klaar.
amennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn pietman broer , smitty was huge
deysel is pure bok
cockott and pienaar bok class sykes had a big defensive game shit list goes on
stefab on defence was huge with swannie
lambie a bok for sure
I think the Bulls will do everyone a favour if they send a B team to Cape Town and let the Stormers win.
Congrats Sharky mates, cheers til next time, well played.
G’nite.
Sharks forwards were outstanding. Our scrums were brilliant. Ruan and Kockott out played Grant and Dewalt.
Lambie was superb again. Even a massive tackle Burger.
@pietman – The dispute has never been about Smit at hooker, but at tighthead, Be fair mate.
and i will keep the yellow cap on super bru i got all 7 games right this week
puma bruddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
check super bru 😆
puma a bit more depth in the backline and this sharks team will be huge huge huge
Sharks had all the right selections tonight. Smit at hooker, ruan at FH, kockett at scrummie, the best loose trio, Mvovo and lambie. But the whole team played with tremendous passion and determination. Good value for the loyal supporters that turned up to watch their team even tho they were just playing for pride!
I am so happy that the mighty Cheetahs did not have to play against this Sharks team.
Pity that we couldn’t play against this Stormers team though.
Well done Sharks!
Turk,well done for losing graciously bud..
not sure how i lost the yellow cap on superbru???????????????????
i got all the games right moved from 25th to 12th ???????????????????????????
275: netnou wen die B-span. Bulle moet nou besluit of hulle hul kaapse vriende gaan help, of hul oorsese vriende.
loskoppie thanks boet
sharky, our superbru is a pot of shit. Someone who only joined 2 weeks ago is top of the log? WTF?
273: dit vat ‘n spesial kampioenspan om in Durbs te wen teen so goeie Sharks span.
289,the Bulls have become masters at it 🙂
so sorry turk mate
ur a great sport
290: ook elke keer maar net-net: 1 punt !
biddie thanks boet
SA rugby lyk baie gesond
@284 – I love rugby mate and one needs to keep perspective. I wanted stormers to win for their semi ambitions. Sharks had nothing to gain. But one has to be honest. What’s the use of getting angry and rude. Sharks fully deserved it. Not even debatable! Just a pity they couldn’t have selected like this from the beginning of the season! We could have had 3 saffa teams in the semis!
292,doesnt matter,whether you win by 1 point than 40 points a win is a win..
hiyas loosehead ur right boet
the guy that took the yellow for me also had the sharks by six , but we both got all 7 right this week
but i moved 13 places up and he didnt
Good Night All.
Thanks for the good sportmanship and fro blogging here on Rugby-Talk!
turk i agree best to stay civil
and the stormers are still 2nd mate
This win just made my day,just need the cricket to go well now..
Still possible for stormers to have home semi. Just need to beat the bulls, just by one point will be enough thanks to our superior points difference. If we can’t beat the bulls at home we don’t deserve to be in the finals!
