WP (20) 33 / Sharks (7) 21 (Final Score)
Vodacom Western Province hosted the Sharks at Newlands, Cape Town at 17:05 SA Time. This is the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1 & SuperSport HD & M-Net on TV in SA.
WP were clearly the hungrier team in this game and the Sharks played a strange lacklustre attacking game, with both teams scoring 3 tries each in the process.
With this last game in the regular Currie Cup season, the semi-finalists and where they will play is now determined, with the Sharks taking on the Blue Bulls in Durban and the WP taking on the Cheetahs in Cape Town.
The Final Currie Cup Log Standings list the top 4 as follows:
- Sharks 52
- WP 48
- Cheetahs 47
- Bulls 47
Scores:
WP: 4 Penalties & 2 Conversions Willem de Waal, 1 Try Gio Aplon, 1 Try Duane Vermeulen, 1 Try Jean de Villiers, 1 Conversion Lionel Cronje

Great try, Sharks!
Penalty WP as Sharks are offside
De Waal should slot this easy one
WP 26 / 14
A converted try by the Sharks could change the whole complexion of the game…
Penalty Sharks, they take it quick…. then gets nothing done…
22m kick-off by WP… they should go deep
Which they do… Ludik runs it back… Habana knocks…
A converted Sharks try will bring my Bru into play nicely
Try Jean de Villiers….. and the fat lady starts to sing
Bulle gaan Shark tank toe
Div wings it!
Lambie missing that crucial tackle…..
WP 33 / 14
Lekker uitdaging vir die Bulle: semi in Durbs, moontlike finaal in Kaap of Bloem.
Bulle het darem al 2 S14 titels weg van die huis gewen, so dit kan gedoen word.
Bulls can take these listless Sharks….
WP scrum with less than a minute to go
Try Adi Jacobs…. consolation
WP 33 / 21
Final score
12-point win for Province
Damn, da mis onsie bonuspoint!
Great wen WP , wonder net hoeveel die game uit julle gaan vat vir volgende week. Cheetahs al klaar uitgerus.
Final Log standings:
Sharks 52

Bulls 47
Semi’s:
Sharks vs Bulls at ABSA Stadium, Durban
WP vs Cheetahs at Newlands, Cape Town
Well… and then there were only 4….
Raait nou vir die knockout stage, twee spanne in Durbs wat ken van daai stage een net meer suksesvol as die ander.
Underdogs (span 4) vat die beste span op die log aan op hul tuisveld.
Last year, No 3 and No 4 contested the Final….. could happen again…
bdb, Bulls underdogs? OK, now pull the other one….
Now for the business end of the Competition….
Blue Bulls I’m sure now rues that loss to the Pumas…. they could have ended 2nd and had a home semi….
148: ons is 4de op die log en speel in Durbs, as dit op Loftus was, was dit ‘n ander storie.
Maar, dalk kan my span verras.
