Much better from the Sharks, they look ok with ball in hand, can’t understand all those aimless kicks then
Sharks penalty on the Landers 22… a sitter at goal.
Mvovo down prone.
Sharks opt to go for touch and not goal
@ Stormersboy: our Stormers ‘cast-off’. I used to like his work back at Nuweland. Running 10. But we failed to use him enough.
Nice try
Try Beast!

Google best free streaming sports sites, there are a few out there, I use VIP box but it’s not the only one.
Instead of spending R700+ on DSTV I spend the money on a 4 meg line and an uncapped internet package, anything you want sports wise is on live streaming sites for free, and if you like to watch entertainment there are ways of getting that for free as well.
Beast jou bliksem!
Highlanders 10 / 10 Sharks
@ grootblousmile: is this a good thing? Take the points. Stay in touch. 4 points is nothing. But we’ll see if they can convert that into something more tasty.

Agreed. Reminds me of Gaffie Du Toit, similar talent and temperament, needs the right sort of set up to get the best out of him.
Landers looking a bit shaken, making mistakes.
Did just turnover a lineout though.
Awesome try
Tryyyyyy Waisake Naholo!!
Righthand corner
Sharks closing down the space a bit better now. Alberts looking better.
Landers take a quick tap off a penalty and put massive pressure on Sharks, cross kick in the corner and over for the wing
TRY!
Brilliant try by the Landers…wow
So quick and great thinking
@ grootblousmile: apologies Sharks. My error. Fantastic score. Now get two more to even things up please.
@ Stormersboy: just when I thought……..
Highlanders 17 / 10 Sharks
Conversion good.
These Highlanders can make something out of seemingly nothing in an instant.
Sharks in fornt of the ball at the kick-off… scrum middle spot, Landers ball.
The try was a tackle miss by Odd-one.
My opinion. Landers are the most potent attacking force on the break, in world rugby. Someone going to argue with me?
What a difference Aaron and Ben Smith make to this Highlanders team.
Last week they were rested and the Landers were nowhere
Landers right back on attack, and finding space and gaps… with ease
Try Patrick Osborne, Landers.
TMO asked to check for possible obstruction and grounding.

The Hurricane back line might take up that argument 😉
Good try. Wow, some of the Guppies basics and defence – especially around the rucks – atrocious
Try stands… no problem
Nothing wrong and a lot right about that Landers try…
Lots of errors by the Saaahks costing them.
