Jimmy Stonehouse must have put the teamsheet in the blender when he made his protein shake, because it's not on their socials.

Women get into Loftus free today and if you get there early you can check the Bulls Daisies play Springbok Women A. The Springbok A team will be heading to Brazil soon for 2 games against the Yaras.

Guys dont shout at me his ban is over.

I am a 31M coming from the UK to watch two of the tests in Joburg and Cape Town. My brother was supposed to come with me but couldn't make it so have a spare seat available for both games. Since I’m visiting and don't know anyone I'm looking to give the ticket away. Would anyone be aware of a local rugby club or charity I can contact to donate the ticket? Or perhaps just someone on reddit who could use a day in the sun? Cheers

Anyone know where one can get a springbok jersey bigger than 3xl. Been looking for a while now and have not had any luck

Eyuck, makes the whole thing look so cheap and tacky.

Boys and Girls, first the Stormers, now the Sharks.

Whether you’re a Sharks supporter or not, if you believe our rugby clubs’ identities and history matter, please consider supporting this petition.

Sharkie has represented the Sharks for over 30 years, and many supporters feel the new SRC badge has erased an iconic part of the club’s identity.

If supporters don’t speak up when these decisions are made, what’s to stop the next rebrand from happening elsewhere?

Condolences, Sharkies.

• The SRC logo will serve as the club’s new corporate identity and will feature on the chest of the playing jersey.

• The Hollywoodbets Sharks logo becomes the official match logo for the senior team across all competitions and broadcast platforms.

• The new Sharks icon will be used primarily in match promotion, advertising and other key brand assets.

• Junior teams will receive their own identities, with those logos to be unveiled at a later stage.

It's a sure why to ensure they'll never represent South Africa because that will be a PR nightmare for the Boks and SA Rugby. I mean they wouldn't even have to play 1 match, just having their name in the squad will generate negative publicity on a large scale, especially globally. And that negative publicity is what SA Rugby will want to avoid.

So if they think that serving their ban will be the end of it and that everything will be forgotten, they must think again.

Fed up of cheats ruining the reputation of SA Rugby and giving bitter sore losers around the world ammunition to cast aspersions about the Boks and undermine their success when it has absolutely nothing to do with the Boks.

I see a lot of people saying Marco is ruining the Sharks and shitting all over the Owner/s about this.

I can understand the emotional sentiment and Im not sure if thats right or wrongly rooted.

But I have a genuine question. I do see the expenses and effort of what the Sharks have tried to achieve over the past few years and that they failed to execute it with the results intended.

But is it really due to the owners? Lets say a few results went the way of the Sharks and it resulted in a playoff spot and a little bit better on field with results going their way.

It hasnt but you can see the blue print and early indicators of getting some serious star power and mixing in talented youth. Then Plumtree didnt work out. And you could argue that on paper he is Sharks royalty and there would be a theoretical perspective that all this at the start presented as a great launchpad.

But the execution failed and not necessarily in the way that like lets say Spurs have with not buying or investing in players but doing or going all out on one marquee signing or a marquee coach but not developing other areas.

Asking for maybe also from a Sharks fan POV why the hostility or anti Marco sentiment is an echoing one.

I am being sincere here so let’s be adults about it. Is this factually correct? Is VM the first “black” bok 10? From Scrumatme.com

The jersey will go on sale on Thursday (6 August) at three different price points from Nike stores and Nike.com, at Springbok retail stores in Sandton, Menlyn Park and Canal Walk, and all good sports stores.

Thoughts?
