Ospreys… Welsh team…
Will they also run over the Sharks and other SA sides?
My SuperBru pick was a an Ospreys win, by 18.
Another thing, the British & Irish Lions players are back in the Northern sides, so Ospreys are getting a few very high quality players back…Rhys Webb, Alun Wyn Jones…
A late change in the Ospreys lineup… the Tighthead is replaced, he’s not feeling well apparently.
So, Tom Botha is at No 3, and Fia moves onto the bench.
Both sides always wear BLACK, so Ospreys will be in BLACK and the Sharks will be in WHITE & LIGHT GRAY.
Sharks already on the park…
Ospreys also out now…
Game ON!
Kick-Off by the Ospreys!
Ospreys penalty, off the feet… very kickable.
Shot by Gareth Anscombe.
Ospreys 3 / 0 Sharks
Another Ospreys penalty, man over the ball… 15m from their own line.
Yet another Ospreys penalty… in on the side.
Can’t say that the penalties were not correctly awarded…
Thaakir Abrahams injured for the Sharks… and he’s off, replaced by Werner Kok.
Sharks penalty, changing binds at the Sharks maul…
5m Inside the Ospreys half.
Posts by Ruan Pienaar.
About 52m on the angle, I suppose…
Missed to the right.
Anthony Volmink placing the Sharks under huge pressure… 5m Ospreys lineout.
Intercept by Ruan Pienaar… but he does nothave the speed… Sharks keep the ball alive and make ground… then a knock.
Then a silly push by Gerbrandt Grobler… loud whistle…
TMO
Ospreys penalty for a late tackle… jeeez.

Sharks almost through… but a botched grubber by Werner Kok..
