[QUOTE="unrated, post: 1008349, member: 45773"] Sharks Pumas Cheetahs Just a note on why the Sharks might not be as fluent and on point now compared to the original Super rugby Our backline in that comp was 15. Fassi (Rising star, definite future Springbok) 14. Nkosi (Springbok) 13 Am (Springbok) 12. Esterhuizen (Springbok) 11. Mapimpi (Springbok) 10. Bosch (Springbok) All these players are still contracted to us and should still feature in the Pro 16. Except for Esterhuizen post lockdown our Backline has been 15 Libbok (Yet to show potential) 14 Tambwe ( FAST. good but probably never a springbok) 13 Am 12. Marius Louw ( good young player) 11. Werner Kok (Recent Blitzbok sevens convert)\ 10.Bosch So with injuries and short term loans to Japan, our backline has been decimated. everyone speaks of when the sharks will perform like they did pre lockdown but the truth is they wont because the backline is completely different. Untill we get our premier combos back then we simply cant be the team that rose to the top of the OG Super rugby log. These new players has potential, love that they now get a chance along with Jeremy Ward. The team that has played in Super rugby unlocked has been nowhere near the team that the Sharks would have put out for the OG Super rugby. [/QUOTE]
