He seems bigger than LEM & i BELIEVE this boy is the biz. I did hear a whisper that the SHARKS bought him from GAUTENG & the price whispered was r500000.

I cant verify that & the guy telling the story said it was a FORWARD, whith the name Spedding, so the “leak” could be talking through his nose.?

I am interested to know if the SAMOANS count as “black” for the unofficial quota’s. I dont mean any malice at all, merely curious.

We have 4 Samoans here now, all test players, a hooker, lock/8th man, centre, & a wing with the biggest thoghs in rugby – he weighs 114kg. Bit we can only have 2 internationals in our squad, so when Brown gets here [ if he does] then it will probably be FARANI [8TH MAN - 120 kg/1.95m]
who get’s the nod.

Quite a decent size apparantrly too, which should suit JW.

Spedding played schools rugby in the Vaal ( craven week – see his stats on supersport zone

http://www.superschools.co.za/PlayerFixtureResults.asp?PlayerID=14706&StartYear=2001&sportCategory=SUPERSCHOOLS/SCHOOLSRUGBY

he was not considered good enough to make any senior teams there in 2005 and he took his chance when offered it at the Sharks.

This is the good thing about the sharks, they are not afraid to try new things and use an attacking flyhalf. sounds like he carved the cats to pieces in the warm-up game.

again this is dissapointing from a cats perspective tho, would much rather have seen this fella than snyman, sounds like the kind of precosious spark needed at 10 to ignite players like Fourie, willemse and jantjies.

We can definitely take the Reds, Force and Cheetahs at home. We’ll win one match away (we have to – possibly against the Canes). We do well at Ellis park as well.

So Rob- putting money on The Cheetahs game?

Among the players we will be nursing a bit before we name our team for the Chiefs game are Brent Russell, Waylon Murray, Cedric Mkhize, Craig Davidson and Odwa Ndungane. JP Pietersen is also injured, which is a great shame because he is a very special player.â€?” **** Muir on http://www.superrugby.co.za

he should JP a shot at no.15. keep percy at 10, and no need to use spedding just yet. i think this percy is more effective at 10, and JP is a find at 15 [reminds me of juba]. give him a good run there. then we will see the youth policy paying huge dividends, mr muir!…

and why would we want to slot him [JP] on the wing as an option? he’s a thinker. you might as well put ME on the wing, cos this guy’s gonna light up the tournament, if you ask me.
