Eben looks way off the pace, but by the same token I wouldn't judge any player in that dysfunctional Sharks setup too harshly based on nothing else. I think he needs to be managed carefully if he wants to be part of the 2027 WC. If he is taking a sabbatical as you say Blob, that's probably a good thing, but he will be 35 going on 36 come 2027.
Plum as blindly ignorant about JJ as ever
My suggestion to you is to stay away from rugby
You are fucking rugby ignorant
You are also fucking childish - your sole purpose is to attack a 21 year old SA prospect - you are fucking pathetic
Yeah, I know. Rassie will select him any day now.
Get a life you ignorant, negative prick
This is not what the issue is about, Lets go back to Round 4 - th e Sharks forwrds cintrolled t he foward play totally - but t he Sharks lost the match. So why did they lose that match? Now onto this week against Scarlets - why did the Sharks made heavy weather in beatibng the team beaten by the Lions in Round 4"
So lets look at the tournament after completion of 5 Rouns. In eey match played he fowards were dominent - so why did the Sharks doinant forwards lost 4 of the 5 matches?
The answer we got on site is always the same, Plumtree is to blame - but is that true? Does viually vey player ebing past or present Spingbok? Are hese players coachable at all? Do they regard themselves as rugby saints and know more than every coach in the world and they want to use that fact. I think Plumtree shoul realoze he ahs to do with players where theyd ecide what they do on the field of play and there are very few coaches lik Easmus thnt would hot the shit out of the worst set=up in Rugby played by the Sharks, I wish that Plumtree leave he Shrks - but who will stop the rot in teh Sharks team. I would tell you one thing - repalce him woth Vermeulen adn some fo the undemining of oaching reigning supreme in the Sharks set-up, Appoint Vermeulen and he would knocj the shit out of the rpesent ;ot uncoachable players in that squad,
The second issue is whether the Sharks backline is in disarray or not, If oe believe all the shit on this site th Sh arks recruited badly when it comes to backline players, Are the abkline layers of te Sharks up to standard tousee te mulitple of oo balls they got from the forwards, So tell us why
Nut still tje ques tion remains it happens at all, From wha I have seen above the solution is to move the nbrilliaany wng Hooker to 12 - but what would happen if they move Hooker to 12. What will the Sharks then and in what position will Esterhuizen then play?
A logical question requires a logical answer - so why is the Sharks losing matches?
