Players out on the field!
Game ON!
Kick-Off by the Golden Lions!
Lions immediately under pressure… and on top of it they throw skew into the lineout 5m from their own line.
Sharks 5m scrum.
Try Daniel du Preez, Sharks!
Sharks 7 / 0 Golden Lions
This game was difficult to call on SuperBru… but I was bold and maybe far too bold and picked the Golden Lions by 3 points on SuperBru.
Golden Lions scrum, 5m from their own line.
Sharks and Akker van der Merwe looking strong so far.
Sharks penalty deep inside the Golden Lions 22, in front!
Sharks 10 / 0 Golden Lions
Akker van der Merwe has a huge welt over and above his left eye… looks like he has already gone 12 rounds in a hard boxing match…
Lions manage to turn a ball over, deep in their own 22… and Elton Jantjies clears well to touch.
Sharks are making all balls very fast and they look potent.
If the Sharks continue like this, they are going to rip the Golden Lions a new one…

Sharks opt to take the lineout.
Sharks knock… in the maul.
Try Sibusiso Nkosi, Sharks, far right corner!
Sharks 15 / 0 Golden Lions
Massive Sharks scrum… penalty advantage… penalty given.
Lwazi Mvovo down injured.
Stands very empty considering it is a Semi Final.
Mvovo being stretchered off… neck brace on, the whole toot…
Fassi on for Mvovo.
Sharks forwards in control… by some distance.
Another Sharks very kickable penalty… against Marvin Orie, offside.
They pop it into the corner.
Marvin Orie steals the lineout.
Looks like there is a very deceptive wind, from behind the Sharks backs…
Lions scrum, on their own 22, middle of the field
Again a massive Sharks scrum… penalty!
They are murdering the Golden Lions in the scrums.
Sharks 18 / 0 Golden Lions
Lions penalty, deliberate knock ruled… they will kick to the corner.
Daniel du Preez in from the side… Lions penalty in front, deep in the Sharks 22… easy one!
