Sibusiso Mjikeliso | Second chances are great but Aphiwe Dyantyi is a dynamite Sharks signing

For all the talk of Aphiwe Dyantyi getting a second chance, the new Sharks backline player could prove a dynamite signing, if he can regain the bulk of his electrifying ability that made us watch in awe and become enamoured with his enormous talent, writes Sibusiso Mjikeliso.

The word all last week, when Aphiwe Dyantyi was handed his second lease in life, was about how the Sharks had given him a priceless second chance at rugby.

It was a heart-warming touch, a happy ending to a tragic, sad tale. But make no mistake, this is not a charity handout - the Sharks made a shrewd rugby-first acquisition.
