 The Bull Sharks of 2009 were a great group of young rugby players and a team that everyone who was involved with it is very proud of they gave it all during the season. They made the top 4 playoffs and were third qualifier just behind the Dunedin Makos. Dunedin was the only club this year to have two teams in the Colts playoffs. Thanks must go to our Coach’s, Manager, Physiotherapist and Fitness Trainer for all the work they did during the season.

2008 Season

Results aside, the 2008 Bull Sharks were a very positive bunch!
An below average win-loss record failed to dampen their burgeoning team spirit and enjoyment of each others company, whether they were at Shark Park or socialising elsewhere in Dunedin!

In a squad dominated by forwards (we had 15 compared to 6 genuine backs) we struggled to find our rhythm this season.

On the field our results were disappointing without lacking in endeavour. The Bulls had the winning of several close games that slipped away from us and we finished the season with jus 4 wins and 7 losses scoring 138 points while conceding 210.

Injuries and a lack for staring backs did not enable us to settle on the combinations necessary to be competitive but even the victorious Southern Ravens were pushed hard by us at times.

I wish to thank Noel Jenkins my co-coach who came into the mix early in the season and provided invaluable assistance with the backline. Jamie Barnham was a most reliable Physio who has a wonderful attitude. Also many Thanks to Rangi (Paul) Hickey who put in few cameo appearances on the management front. Also thanks to Kevin Waldron and the Makos set up who providing constant player support and really cementing great brotherhood between the two Prem colts sides .
Stand-out players for the year include Simon Luke, Tomasi Tulia, Albert Hanson, Willie Little, Sean Roughan and the pocket rocket Dan Cairns
