Dangerous breed of Shark spotted swimming towards the Cape… A red alert has been issued by lifesavers to swimmers as this one is on a murderous feeding frenzy…
Meteorologists, on the other, hand predict storms the likes of which have never been seen before to descend on Cape Town, especially around the Newlands area…
“They will last ’til after 4 August, for some reason,” said Simon Gear.
Run for your lives!

Sharks to travel to Cape Town early this week.
____________________________________________________________
Die Burger reports that coach John Plumtree’s men will arrive in the Mother City on Thursday, instead of their usual Friday arrival time for Saturday matches.
“This time round we want to be there a little bit earlier,” said Plumtree.
“The travelling is something we don’t really talk about. We feel it’s familiar territory – we’re use to a bit of jet lag and can adapt accordingly.
“The guys are drinking enough water, resting well and are slowly getting ready for Saturday. We focus on what’s ahead – not what happened in the past.”
25 Jul 2012, 09:39 am
As a Bok fan really hope the stormers win, so many key players in the Sharks side. Need some rest and less travel.
good luck to both teams and hope its a cracker. JPP to score a winning try 
25 Jul 2012, 09:50 am
Of course the Stormers gonna win…
- Key Players back… Particularly Fatty Vermeulen, the Promised One a 8.
- No injuries
- Home turf advantage especially at “Fortress” Newlands where they haven’t lost all season
- Fanatical home support
- Week of rest for tired bodies…
- Sharks have literally lost a couple of days in travel time and Jetlag
- Sharks have niggles and injuries…
- Stormers have the leadership of the Bok Captain
Yup, Sharks are absolutely no hopers against the Stormer might
25 Jul 2012, 10:00 am
Both these games are incredibly hard to call. You can put forward a “rational” argument for just about any outcome here. Which is why you must just trust your gut feel.
And the katman’s gut says that the Stormers, at home, will just pip the Sharks. Sorry saarkies.
Down in the outhouse of the world, I think the poor Chiefs are going to have an Adam Scott moment – having led for so long, they’ll lose it by a tiny margin at the very end.
Which will set up a Saders/Stormers final. And being in Cape Town, this should see the support pretty much split down the middle. But we can count on some of the Saders juveniles (e.g. Guildford) to do something stupid on tour and distract their focus, thereby handing the game to the Stormers.
And then it will be like the Poms after the 2003 WC. Knighthoods from the ZilledeLille Axis of Botox, open top bus tours and the Freedom of the Waterfront for Coetzee. Keo and his minions will party like it’s 1999 and summarily be arrested on 76 different charges, some of which will include dwarves and peanut butter.
Thus spoke the katman, and so it was.

@Heavens Game-15: Sharks are packed full of Boks…
But as we know, especially from the “knowledgeable” experts on this site, many of Heynek Meyer’s Bok selections are overrated especially compared to those that did not don Green and Gold this year… Of course Meyer is obviously blinkered that he plumbed for some overrated talents in Black and White compared to the supremacy of Blue and White…
As it is repeatedly said, which team tops the log this year… and which team is Conference Title holder for 2 years in succession… Of course, its the Stormers… They must be doing something right – all this finals rugby… before the finals…
The Sharks though, are as inconsistent as a French team with PMT… The no hoper Dynamite versus the consistent Blue and White…
It can’t possible happen that they actually scrape through and fly away to the final against the Chiefs or Saders… This cannot possibly be good for SA Rugby… Surely?
Naah, of course the Title Holders and Top team are going to win…. They cant possibly not…
Infarkenconceivable
25 Jul 2012, 10:04 am
I have a feeling the Chiefs will win on Friday morning. Saders are not looking as sharp as they should. As for Sharks and Stormers. Honestly at this stage have no idea. Can’t wait for Saturday.

Chockabok.
25 Jul 2012, 10:15 am
Huzzit Puma, no no, these were woolies organic vegetable peelings not Pick n Pay, so it was a quality reading and they say we will win big. Stormers be afraid very afraid, and to top it off Sharks will be flying in extra hot authentic Durban bunnychows for their early lunch for that extra bit of vuma.
25 Jul 2012, 10:17 am
@Heavens Game-17: Where has all the supreme arrogance and confidence gone? I am disappointed.
From your victory speeches on Monday to this? A semi-sarcastic attempt at psychological shmooz? Bitterly disappointing.
Boom! (Stop smoking it)
25 Jul 2012, 10:23 am
Also have it on good authority the Stormers are having all new vejazzling (sp)done the morning of the big game in expectation of the rogering knowing they need to go out in style lol. Only the Stormers
25 Jul 2012, 10:27 am
Player vs Player…
1. Beast vs Malherbe or Brok…. Beast has technical deficiencies which will be picked up and taken advantage of by the Guru Proudfoot…
2. Bismarck vs Liebenburg and Fourie… Logic says Bissy is superior but with a tag team of two excellent hookers, they will probably put the Battleship off his game.
3. Jannie vs Ginger Ninja…. Of course Jannie is overrated and against the Baby Bok World Champ he does not stand a chance
4. Etsebeth vs Alberts or Sykes… The boy wonder will have definitely got over his Bambi in headlights during Stormers freakish loss at KP… No chance for Sharks here.
5. Bresler vs Bekker… COme now. Bresler who?
6. Daniel vs Kolisi… One a Bok who was obviously overrated and could not perform against the Poms and one who is by miles one of the best loosies in Super rugby… Obviously a case of Meyer’s Black, white and light blue blinkers that he is not a Bok
7. Coetzee vs Elstadt… The former feted by some as the next best thing to Superman, by others dull and uninspiring… No match winner. The latter, the successor to Bakkies, but at blindside flank nogal… Of course Elstadt will prove a point to Meyer.
8. Vermeulen vs Kanko… Vermeulen according to some on Keo is the best damn no 8 since Teichmann in the Green and Gold…. Actually better than Teich to NOT wear Bok colours… While Kanko is a poormans Spies showpony
9. Duvenhage vs McLeod… Duvenhage obviously should be a Bok… He is nothing if not consistent… McLeod is French and should never have been made a Bok by Divvy
10. Grant vs Fred… Grant should be a Bok many say, and they are right – he has a kick conversion rate within 30m of 80% plus… He also defends like a Trojan and never puts pressure on his backline by passing the ball. Fred…? Well he’s French
11. Mvovo vs Habana…. A flaky fast but positionally suspect pretender vs a Bok legend… No chance.
12. Whitehead vs De Villiers… A second rater who couldn’t make the Stormers run on side vs the Bok Captain… Absolutely no contest.
13 JdJ vs Jordaan… A Bok vs Baby bok… Jordaan will be scythed apart by the best back not to be made a Bok this year.
14. JPP vs Aplon… Tough contest and although JPP has being the best wing in Super rugby, on home turf the courageous Apples will be geared up to show him more than a few tricks
15. Peterson vs Ludik… Ludik farken who? Ludikris!!
Coaches: AC, World Cup winning assistant coach, conference title holding coach for 2 years running and coach of the tope team this year vs Dumbtree Plumtree and his stooges… Couldn’t coach a School team and with the “talent” available (although pointedly not as talented as the Stormers as shown above) are a disgrace to the Black and White… I mean there are Facebook pages by faithful Sharks fans calling for Dumbs removal and replacement by he eminent Jimmy Stonehous…
FFS and some of you fools still think Saturday is going to be a close match, never mind a match at all…
Of course the Top side are going to Walk this One at Fortress Newlands
25 Jul 2012, 10:30 am
If Jordaan is fit, we have a chance. Else, forget about it. Bosman KILLS OUR BACKLINE.
If I was a betting man:
Chiefs by 1-5
Stormers by 5-10

@Heavens Game-23:
LOL, the most one side post I have EVER SEEN.
But the tonge in cheek tone is ackowledged.
25 Jul 2012, 10:37 am
How dare the Lucky Sharks and their Johnny come Lately fairweather supporters actually even imagine that their team can just pitch up to Fortress Newlands and win a semi-final against a Team that has lost just 2 games this season…
Like they dared to think that their Johnny come Lately team could even hope to provide opposition against the unmatchable might of Northern Transvaal at Fortress Loftus in 1990… According to a Light Blue bucktoothed legend “Never to be Repeated in 100 years!”…..
How fuckendare they!
Who the fuckdo they think they are… FuckenDynamite???
25 Jul 2012, 10:58 am
Damnedfucken right the Sharks are going to come and have a drunkenpiss on the porch of the “Top” side…
Stormers have been playing “Finals” rugby the whole season – with nothing to lose except imagination and try counts…
Sharks have been playing Finals rugby PROPER the last 3 games now and they have been scoring tries to boot in the process…
11 tries in three games…. They are a Black and White Blitzkrieg excitement machine… How the fark do you defend against them… Tries come from everywhere, tightforwards, loosies, locks, midfield, out wide….. even Freddy the Frog has sneaked in when nobody is looking….
I suspect the Sharks dont even know where they or who will score tries… But score them they do… And over the last three games, its over 3.5 a match against some pretty stingy defences… except the Cheetahs of course, but lets not forget that the Cheetahs held the “Top” team to 16 points with 1 try scored against them just the week before…
Now, a question should be asked…. If the Sharks score 3 tries on Sat, which they are more than likely to do, considering the last 3 “Finals” games they have played… Can the Stormers score more…
Yes, the Stormers will score a try… but there are doubts here, especially with the sudden metamorphosis of the Sharks D from barndoor to mousetrap… Nevertheless lets say Stormers score 7 points, and the Sharks score 19 points from 2 converted and 1 unconverted try (Freddy’s not perfect)…
Will the Stormers be able to make up a deficit of 12 points just by penalties…?
Will they be dominant enough in the set piece to earn those four penalties From matinee Steve to make up the deficit?
Will the Stormers be dominant enough not to concede any themselves…?
I think the answers to these questions is NO… Despite jetlag and away play for the Sharks…
And to those who say, “This is different – this is knockout rugby”, the answer is “But the Sharks have been playing knockout rugby for 3 games already…. No difference….”
Therefore the answer to this perplexing result is simple… The answer is Dynamite.
BOOM!
25 Jul 2012, 11:11 am
man for man the sharks are a better team than the stormers, and aside from losing to the lions (ha ha ha ha ha) they finished the season strong and were devastating last week.
but i feel that for SA rugby the stormers need to win this. having the sharks players, especially the boks turn around and fly back to NZ for a flogging will be completely pointless.
and besides, Stormers have been more consistent and havbe made winning a habit.
heart says stormers. but boy have the sharks been awesome when they been good. just dont know which sharks team will pitch this week.
25 Jul 2012, 11:12 am
The odds are 1:1.45 for the Stormers to win
It’s about right, Walsh will turn the ball over just enough times in the Sharks’ half to ensure a Sormers victory by Grant’s reliable boot, Steve Walsh knows how to make it happened in a low key, undetected manner, Jonker will provide some assistance too.
25 Jul 2012, 11:14 am

25 Jul 2012, 11:15 am
@Heavens Game-27:
you’re quite tiresome. i cant believe how seriously you take yourself.
25 Jul 2012, 11:16 am
How dare the Johnny come Lately supporters of the Johnnies think that their team could possibly pitch up to Fortress Newlands and send the farken “Top” team back ta think again… about actually playing “Finals” rugby in knockouts and evolving during the league phase… and not the other way round…?
How farken dare the Dynamite Dream?
25 Jul 2012, 11:17 am
@munkiboi-31: Seriaas!!?
25 Jul 2012, 11:18 am
@WP Till I Die-30: Thats right… Dynamite!

Possible headline:
Dynamite blows up the Breeze…
Stormers 13
Sharks 25
Possible start of the article:
The Sharks exploded onto Newlands on Saturday, reducing the much fancied Stormers to Farts in the Wind….
25 Jul 2012, 11:39 am
So quiet here… Everyone commenting on a Kiwi thread…
Is that fear and angst I smell from the Breezing Farts in the Wind?
Phew… something stinks
25 Jul 2012, 11:55 am
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 ………booooo…….m fizzle fizzle fizzle……… Tears and boring angst!
Gonna be fun watching some of these d oos guppy supporters cry!
25 Jul 2012, 11:58 am
Yup, he who smells it first probably farted …,.
25 Jul 2012, 12:09 pm
@Heavens Game-36: You know, I reckon you are much smarter and maturer than you put out with your posts.
Just so you know, we Stormers fans are indeed nervous about the next few weeks because we will have to beat teams that have taught us a few rugby lessons in recent years. Stop patronising us with the attempted nerve-inducement through reverse psychology laced with childish sarcasm.
The Stormers have won 21 of their last 25 matches against South African sides since 2010. Two defeats (20-14, 25-20) against the Sharks standout because of severity of the hidings the Stormers received on those afternoons in spite of the close scorelines. The Sharks were something to behold.
Don’t mention the Crusaders because they were the cause of a sudden spike in alcoholism among Stormers fans in 2011. They are not our hoodoo side simply because they are way more successful than we are, and as such, a beating from them relates perfectly with their record against every other team in the competition (except the worst Australian team for that particular season and against the Bulls at Roftus
). However, they are mental stumbling block.
The boys from the Cape are in for a hell ride against a team spitting “hot fire” and another renowned for being the playoff assassins (should the first challenge be surmounted).
In keeping up with your sarcastic tone, you better hope the Stormers don’t peak on the Sharks and blow them out of Newlands. If that happens, please save the congratulations because we do not tolerate about-turns.
25 Jul 2012, 12:53 pm
25 July 2012 (12:30) – The Sharks have made just one change to their starting line-up ahead of the Vodacom Super Rugby semi-final match against the Stormers on Saturday, with Paul Jordaan failing a late fitness test.
Patrick Lambie was also in a race against time to recover from a recurring ankle injury, but will not be playing, and with Jordaan’s troublesome hamstring injury keeping him out of the match, Tim Whitehead will play in his position at outside centre, with Meyer Bosman coming in to partner him in the midfield.
Cobus Reinach misses out as Sharks coach John Plumtree has chosen a five-two split on the bench, with Jean Deysel returning to the side to add extra firepower amongst the replacements. The final change sees Riaan Viljoen named in Bosman’s empty place.
The Sharks are expecting nothing different from the Stormers that they have delivered all season, a side that have reached the top of the log through disciplined defensive play and the highly-reliable boot of Peter Grant to convert opportunities when they present themselves. Although they boast a hugely exciting backline, the Stormers have interestingly scored the fewest number of tries in the tournament, but have done the necessary damage to win almost all of their games by sheer dominance.
“They don’t change too much in what they do, but what they do is really efficient,” explains John Plumtree. “They work really hard defensively, their defence has been talked about enough, it’s a wall that’s hard to break down. Their lineout is really big, they have an unfair advantage with some monsters there, their setpiece is something they rely on, they gain a lot of confidence out of winning a territory game, they don’t mind kicking out because they attack the opposition lineout.
“There are trends about them that are really consistent. They have a real belief in what they do, their leadership is clearly very strong because they get out there and play consistent rugby each week, that’s why they finished top, that’s why they’re in a situation where, if they beat us, they get a home final.
“They also feed off the fact that they have a lot of good players but don’t have as many Boks as some of the other teams. That motivates them as well.”

25 Jul 2012, 12:55 pm
Thats bigger advantage for the Stormers now
25 Jul 2012, 12:56 pm
The only positive with Bosman coming in is his boot
What worried me with last weeks team was that if Fred got injured we had no backup kicker
this week it is bosman with Freddy and on the bench Viljoen
25 Jul 2012, 13:06 pm
SL Bosman hasn’t been that bad this year… Apart from tackling himself… Prefer Jordaan though…
25 Jul 2012, 13:09 pm
That is a blow. Hopefully Bosman realizes he has to make up for tackling himself in the game against the Reds. His distribution has been very good when he has played this year. But the Sharks will miss Jordaan’s attacking abilities.
25 Jul 2012, 13:12 pm
@THE MAULER-43: @kaksioek-44: considering this is a good team, also good to see Deysel on the bench, i reckon the sharks are gonna hit them rucks etc big time
25 Jul 2012, 13:12 pm
@sharks_lover-40: I knew Deysel was going to be named on the bench…
I can tell you now Sharks will be playing a possession game with Point of contact between the 10/12 channel…
Coetzee…
BOOM

BOOM
Bissy

Straight up the Gut and through the 2 Storming Donkeys at inside midfield…

Peak…?
You mean score a try… or 2?
25 Jul 2012, 13:17 pm
@Heavens Game-46: Lol I haven’ heard you this excited in a while
Good luck to your boys on Saturday, should be an epic game
25 Jul 2012, 13:19 pm
@Heavens Game-46:
I thought Boom was playing for the Cheetas / Sevens
25 Jul 2012, 13:20 pm
@Heavens Game-46: You missed the part about losing the ball on the ground…
25 Jul 2012, 13:20 pm
Lot of Whitelocks in there, could be a nursery rhyme
25 Jul 2012, 13:21 pm
@kaksioek-44: Good news from an entertainment perspective. Guaranteed a comedy central moment or two now.
On a serious note, you Sharks are pretty hard on Meyer B considering you embraced that panhandling, mullet wearing, high tackling of Carter on debut, Pom pom Andy Goode….how conveniently you forget. Many Sharks I know were also delighted at the signing of Marius Joubert, calling it a ‘astute signing and stroke of genius’.
Meyer B in comparison is a rugby genius.
25 Jul 2012, 13:55 pm
Where are all the fun bantering Stormers, some of you really need a sense of humor.
25 Jul 2012, 14:00 pm
Half of the fun is in the bantering in the build up before a big game, makes it that much more exciting on match day, and as for tears when one of the teams lose…..koeksusters and tomato sauce if you cry you have issue’s.
25 Jul 2012, 14:02 pm
@Treehugger-53: Here we are! Hope your sense of humour is still in place come 7pm on Saturday. You’ll certainly need it.
25 Jul 2012, 14:09 pm
@Atreides-48: Yes, your team too Dune.
25 Jul 2012, 14:12 pm
And so, its all quiet on the Western Front.
The Breezing farts in the wind all hunkered down in their bunkers awaiting the explosion….?
Let me whisper it to you poor chaps…
Shhhhhht….
*boom*
25 Jul 2012, 14:13 pm
@Heavens Game-57: Let me alsoi get into being positive
The side is very much to be expected, and even though i am like some not always the most positive re Bosman, he has actually been quite good this year, specially in defense and distribution for example.
What many might not realise though is he does give us another kicking option that we lacked last week if Freddy had a bad kicking game? luckily that did not happen, what if the tries dont come this weekend??
Bosman if i recall has hardly missed a kick when he did kick for poles,he also takes the longer kicks which freddy cannot anyhow
Then on the bench we have more kicking cover in Viljoen,
And Deysel on the bench shows he is intent on the Sharks winning the collusions and rucks etc
I also think deysel can assist Bissy in the fetching part of things
So even though we have lost 3 players in Jordaan, PSDT and Lambie/ i think we can still make it, even though its a very hard task
25 Jul 2012, 14:16 pm
I don’t know where and how it started.
But I find this general antagonism between Stormers fans and Sharks fans quite entertaining
25 Jul 2012, 14:17 pm
@sharks_lover-58: Bossie not bad this season…. Defence improved leaps and bounds and actually made a huge difference to the Sharks, at least on D, when he came on against the Reds.
Hellsteeth, but that was a comical allfalldown with tryline begging.
He has many points to prove and yes you are right about his kicking… He is a good option.
Maybe the Stormers think he is a weakness and in the process play him right into the game…. In a good way.
Sharktrap!
25 Jul 2012, 14:19 pm
@willievz-59:
Me too. I always liked the Sharks, untill I met their supporters online
25 Jul 2012, 14:20 pm
@Heavens Game-60: You tried that ploy last year at Newlands. 4 tries to Nill – 3 of which were either over or around Bosman.
25 Jul 2012, 14:38 pm
JDV to murder Bosman dejavu at Newlands
25 Jul 2012, 14:41 pm
@Mongril……I will do what any good supporter does and blame it on the ref if HE MAKES US LOSE……I mean really, it is a given that we going to boom bang decimate you guys and then I will drink copious amounts of of Amarilla by myself as I have told every one that Saturday afternoon till early evening no visitors, phone calls and I am not available to go anywhere. Then I will have to attempt being gracious in defeat and that is as difficult as saying sorry or admitting I am wrong.
oh which by the way I never really am, ask my husband

Yep, good game plan there. Not innovative by any stretch of imagination, but effective none the less.
My team loses… Start Automatic sequence…
Swear violently – Check
Blame ref – Check
Switch off cell phone – Check
Get blind drunk – Check
Confirm tickets for 3 week contiki tour in Romania – Check

That’s my line.
And no it won’t.
As Bulls supporters you and I can rise above it.
