Sharks (16) 26 / Blues (9) 12 (Final Score)
The Sharks hosted the Blues at Mr Price Kings Park, Durban at 17:00 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1 & M-Net on TV in SA.
The Sharks started fast but then the game became scrappy, all the way through… not a memorable game but won nonetheless by the Sharks, before their trek accross the big waters.
2 Wins from 2 for the Sharks, this is what matters, I suppose.

Well, the game was scrappy but the Sharks are 2 from 2.
Over to the Stormers / Lions thread
@ grootblousmile:80 – hahahaha.
NOT to scrappy against a top side in humidity…lol.
We were damn good.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SHARKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
Better than your Bulls boeta…hahaha. Sharks looked really dangerous at times. Sure Alberts should have passed and dropped on, we would have had another two tries. But who cares a win is all we need. We won in humidity. Very, very tough to play in those conditions.
SHARKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Sharks also beat one of the top sides tonight. I am one happy Shark supporter. This is a quality Blues side. AB front row facing and Bok front row? Now that is awesome. WE had the edge on em. Also had the edge on their backline that are so dangerous. Sharks done superb. Give credit bru.
