Keegan DanielTim WhiteheadThe Sharks scored 11 tries on their way to beating the Leopards 71-8 in a Super Rugby warm up match at Woodburn Stadium in Pietermaritzburg on Friday.

The Sharks ooutscored the Leopards by 11 tries to one but the victory may have come at a cost as captain Keegan Daniel injured his knee while Tim Whitehead has a suspected broken arm.

The Sharks were in control of the match throughout and led 31-3 at half time.

The second half started slowly for the Sharks but they soon found their feet again and scored 40 points in the half.

The match was the first of two friendlies for the Sharks in their preparation for the Super Rugby season and the second is against the Pumas in Durban next week.

The Sharks start their Super Rugby campaign in Bloemfontein against the Cheetahs on February the 23rd.

    Ek weet jul almal weet dit was n kookspul maar lees wat se Australia se eie koerante

    It was almost too poetic to be true. A week where the integrity of Australian sport has been questioned like never before ended in folly in Brisbane, even by boxing’s lofty standards.

    The sweet science isn’t exactly the historic pin-up for squeaky clean conduct but the bizarre, controversial and confusing finish to the heavyweight bout between Frans Botha and Sonny Bill Williams will take some digesting and quite possibly, serious investigations.

    Williams was quite correctly declared the points winner after 10 rounds. The problem is most people – including Botha and at least two of the ringside judges – thought it was scheduled for 12.

    It was a good thing for the Sydney Roosters star, who dominated all but the final two rounds with his snappy jab but was in genuine trouble towards the end of the 10th as Botha turned it into a street fight, punching on the retreat and landing some heavy blows, some of which weren’t legal.

    Botha was deducted a point as Williams held on and tried to survive. In the end, the six-fight pro was saved by the bell, which was reportedly rung as much as 10 seconds early. Late last night, amid backroom screaming matches between rival camps, nobody had any answers.

    Ek dink ons moet jou herdoop na “Super-Copy-n-Paste”… hehehe

    45: ongelukkig het daardie beker nou afgewater geraak, omdat die spanne meeste van die tyd nie op volsterkte is nie. Dit is regtig jammer, anders was die bulle al lankal verby die wp met die meeste bekers gewen …..

    43: nog nooit ‘n groot fan van boks gewees nie, het gister vir die eerste keer in eeue gekyk, maar wat ‘n grap, nie net die fixing nie maar ook die kwaliteit van boks deur beide manne. Die een is ‘n baie goeie rugbyspeler wat dink hy kan boks, en die ander een is al so oorgewig en uit vorm dat hy 8 jaar gelede al moes opgebou boks het. Dit was nou maar net nog ‘n show gewees, soos daardie rofstroei shows wat so belaglik is.
