According to Die Beeld Newspaper the brothers DuP are looking to move to a team where they would actually be in the starting 15.

Reports are that both Jannie and Bismark are looking to move from the Sharks, possibly to Toulon or to the Lions. The return of the World Cup winning Captain to his rightful position as a hooker and captain of the Sharks team has resulted in the Du Plessis’s unhappiness. As captain Smit should start every S14 game at hooker or ,stupidly, at tighthead.

The brothers were last year linked with a move to the WP where they would both be gaurenteed starting berths.

    Imagine them throwing their toys out of their cots. This can’t be good for the Sharks morale.

    Please not WP. I mean, it would be great, but I would like WPRU put some trust in their own and develope some local talent for once.

    I think if they want to start every week and be in contention for next years world cup, they should go to the Lions, or get this, the Kings (if they ever get of the ground).

    Stem saam met GG. Op die oomblik het ons goeie opkomende manne by die WP

    En buitendien, wat gee enige speler die reg om daarop aantedring om in die span te wees? Veral Jannie se spel is soms maar erg power!! Nee wat, gaan teken by die Kings, dit sal ‘n goeie inspuiting vir die span wees.

    Both have signed a two year contract with the Sharks. Then contracts in this country means nothing I suppose.

    Don’t see the brothers leaving for France so close to the world cup.

    So far this is just in the Beeld.

    5 Puma, and on Tjarksworld.

    KingPaul, Puma, stem saam… wat se dit van SA spanne as spelers kan aandring op ‘n plek in die span. En wat van kontrakte. Die Jaques Fourie kon uit sy kontrak kom omdat dit onvoltooid en dus ongelding was…

    6 – Loosehead,

    Just saw it in the Beeld. So if it is on Sharksworld maybe something is up but nothing is a cert until it happens. For now think both brothers will play for Sharks this S14. Like I said above they both have signed for 2 years with the Sharks but contracts don’t seem to mean much here in SA. So let us see what happens.

    Bissie will be missed as a player, but if that is the way he feels. TOODLES. Should only want players that want to be there and will give 100%, but still a bit sad.

    Hiho Puma, what are your thoughts on this ?

  • 11

    9 – Afternoon Treehugs, Yip would be a huge loss to lose Bissy, then nothing is a cert yet, just speculation at this stage.

    I would still have John as captain though. We could do with two hookers this year, especially with all the rugby that has to be played. Alternate and use them well so that don’t get burn out. We lucky to have both of them. Then the brothers I think want to start and finish every game.

  • 12

    2 – GG, Don’t think they will leave this late and leave the Sharks this year. Maybe next year? Off to the Lions? Still think for now it is all just speculation nothing is a cert yet.

    Puma did you watch the Munster/Northampton game last night, it was enjoyable.

  • 14

    Their are 3 games you can watch today starting at 3.30pm so i would imagine kickoff at 4pm. Last game is at 8pm i think, i dont know why most say the Northen games are not good, think you have good games and bad games same as good teams and bad teams everywhere.

  • 15

    I know JDV is playing for Munster, but the thing is to try and find him on the field, doesnt seem to be doing much.

  • 16

    Heard Ricky January was doing really well at Ospreys and was glad so watched the last game and he was truelly awefull in it.

    Hope it was just a bad game for him.

    Puma i know what you mean, had family down from Joburg yesterday, They been comeing down quite often. The afrikaans broer inlaw on hubs side wants them moved down and installed in Zimbali by June, so they come down often to look at different houses there.

    He is very fussy and wants the biggest and the best. Do you know you can pay up to R26 million for a 4 bedroom closest to the beach, but they didnt take it, he wanted to pay a lowere price. Cant even concieve haveing that kind of money.

    Lots of families moveing wife and little kiddies down to Zimbali and hubs just flying down on the weekends. They all want out of Joburg.

    GBS THANKS DOLL 🙂 MHAW

    facebook just mailed me as well.

  • 22

    21@ Boomninny – Hehehehe… did Facebook mail you?…. no Ninny I did, through Facebook… hehehehe

  • 23

    Hi Hugs, right GBS has got you sorted….So does your christan name begin with C? If you are who I think you might be I will do a ‘Friend’ invitation.
    If you think I look dodgy refuse my invitation!! 😀

    20 – Treehugs, Zimbali is beautiful. I first looked there too but as beautiful as it is was not for me. Also far too expensive. Yes, you can pay far more than that for a place in Zimbali. Think up to and more than 50 million rand!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you imagine that? Very expensive but beautiful and also very lonely place I think. Most of the homes there are owned by holiday makers that either live in Joburg or overseas. So you could have no neighbours for months next to you there. The estate I live in is 95% owned and lived in by people working and living here. The other 5% is holiday makers or some from Britain and Germany. I like the fact that when I come I know my neighbours are there.

    Tell your brother-in-law to look here too. Just seen about 30 Impala again this morning in-front of my garden. Yesterday saw a Bush Buck with a young one. Lovely here then think there are plenty buck in Zimbali too.

    You go on that Facebook you are exposed forever…….hehehe. Just joking. I just never go onto face book at all. Sorry GBS..LOL.
