24: hehe!
Sharks penalty, in Lambie’s range
Now who will win this one, looking through the team sheets at the combinations, front rows – Sharks, 2nd row – WP, loose forwards – going to be interesting battle here WP maybe just a bit more balanced but this could go either way, halfbacks – Sharks, centres – not sure but possibly WP shade this, unless Steyn is sharper than think he will be with little rugby lately, back three – possibly more power Sharks but more pace WP so WP just, its a final though so will it be better to have a more solid back three or will a moment of brilliance win it? Replacements – forwards – Sharks look more balanced with options but WP do have the Incredible Skulk so perhaps WP, backs – Sharks shade it with possible better half backs, although nice luxury for WP to have Bok de Jong on the bench.
Home ground advantage to WP, so all in all Sharks probably up against it somewhat – GO SHARKS!
Sharks 3 / 0 WP
