Ryan "Shocked at AXING"

"And so are the days of our ...... Sharks" ?!?! Huh? What?... Yes, you heard it right readers, seems like or beloved Sharks team are set on giving the actors on Days of Our Lives a run for their money lately! With 11, count them ELEVEN, changes made to this weeks team playing against the Chiefs in New Zealand, there's enough shock value there to rival one of Stefeno Dimera's many returns from the dead! The Captain, Keegan, has been dethroned (well benched really) with Jean Deysel taking over Captain Duties for the game. There's a rift between veteran player Ryan (hmmm... It is okay to call him a veteran after 10years) and coach Plum off field that's seems to be spreading on field. There's rumors of fighting between boys and an injury list so long you would be forgiven for thinking they were victims of a Salem make that Durban stalker ... (Um wait scratch that stalker comment y'all might think its us). Of course no soapie would be complete with out a few girly weight issues thrown in, in this scenario Frans Steyn is the girl with Plum being cast as the mean popular girl calling him out for being to chubby! ... Okay okay so we getting a bit dramatic, but things seem to be off in the team lately!

Is there more to the story then the claims???

The changes we can put down as a "surprise tactic" on Plums behalf, and maybe he's changing things up a bit since the usual team haven't been doing so well lately! But what really surprised us is the rumors (that our girl Jackey called the moment Ryan was axed from the team) that have been going around. Before he left for Japan there was talk about how Plum and Kankowski didn't get along, and now it seems that it wasn't all talk. Kankowski spoke out to a journalist about his axing saying :

 

"Of course I’m upset about being axed; the Sharks have been my (flippin'') life for the last 10 years and it came as a shock to me,"

In the article Kankowski went on to say:

 "I’m contracted until the end of the year but this has certainly made me rethink my future at the Sharks, But Durban is my home and it’s a special place to me."

 Hmm could we be loosing a player through this rift? Well we don't know what's up between the pair (they've denied a rift) its clear something is, especially when a few reasons have been given as to why he was axed amongst them: he's out of form, his loyalty to the Sharks and Japan not being good for him. After he was axed word is the pair got into a heated argument and with Kankos recent comments, we'll let you decide



uhmm . . . Did Plum really just go there??

Frans is back to starting which is strange, with Kanko being axed because Plum felt he wasn't fit enough, frans who Plum has been very vocal about his current weight gain is still playing. Is it only us that sees some players getting different treatment?




Is there any truth to the rumours of friction between the players??

We've also heard that there's a bit of tension between the boys, a "source" who attended a game in pre season saw Paul accidently elbowed in the face by Frans during warm ups, but when Frans apologized (and kept on apologising through out) Paul was all uptight and wouldn't accept it. Hmm doesn't seem like the going ons of a tight team! We not to quick to jump in on a rift between the players though, they do all seem quite close on twitter but then again look at how they playing, clearly not as a team!

Between all the rumors, apparent rifts and change up should we be concerned for our team? It seems that a few tweeps are concerned, demanding answers about whats going on at the Shark Tank!  Do they need group therapy or team building and can John get here soon enough to sort out the issues so our team can restore them selves to great team they once were? Well only time will tell! What are your views on the current situation and rumours we are hearing from the tank? 

*Love&Peace*

P.S  no matter what we still L-O-V-E our boys in black and white and will always support them no matter what!  #SharksForever
