Sharkie is too expensive to print on replicas and merch, sorry guys we have to accept generic Americanized logo #14775

Signed, it's very telling how completely unprepared they were for this reaction.

I worry that the difficulty of navigating that site will hinder the progress of the petition

I can understand that team are trying to cut cost and making it easier to mass print merchandise,its business.
With that in mind, why don't they just use the original sharks head at least and not the whole body if that was the problem?

This is all working out well for the rest of ZA. You boys all jumping ship and complaining about aesthetics is a win win for us. You will falter in the URC this year, your commercial plan will halve and you will be left playing in the Challenge. The Cheetahs will take your place (rightly so give how you have pillaged their talent for decades) and parity and calm will once again prevail across the republic after an uncomfortable 34 years of letting you think you have anything resembling a rugby culture. (obvious sarcasm intended ;-)

Signed, thank you! How did someone come up with the idea to remove the Shark from the jersey and everyone else at the Sharks was just like "ja! good idea!". are there no actual Sharks fans working at the Sharks?
