 | | The announcement of The Southern Spears finally provides a coherent and focused identity to the three regions in a show of solidarity that embraces naming and colour elements derived from all three shareholders of the new franchise Border, Eastern Province and South Western Districts. |
 | | The Southern Spears identity in red, fl and white, using three colours from the South African flag, with a spear bolt flashing through the name "Spears", is in stark contrast to the zoological names of the Bulls, Cheetahs, Cats, Sharks and Stormers. |
 | | The Southern Spears are having try-outs and trials in George on the evening of December 2, at Outeniqua Park, where an exciting programme of a display of bands and the SpearLeaders will precede the announcement of the players in each of the two trial squads. |
