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.

Sharks: 2 Conversions & 4 Penalties & 1 Try Patrick Lambie, 1 Try J P Pietersen
