So am I correct in assuming the Sharks Boland game is not being televised?

It is supposed to have started at 15:30 and I can find nothing on DSTV or the net for that matter! The stupid thing is that at 17:00 they are showing "Absa Under 19: Leopards v Sharks"

Final score 48-3, nice one Sharks!

How is this disheartening ending for Boland :

With the hooter having sounded, it's left to play out the game before the ball is dead. Boland are searching for the try and earn a penalty on attack 30m out. Boland manage to get to within millimetres of the tryline before conceding a penalty for holding on. The Sharks opt to keep playing even though time is up and the ball changes hands before Jean Deysel makes a break, offloads to Jacques Botes in the tackle and his fellow flank is over for his hat-trick, Riaan Swanepoel converting and that's the game!

Hat-trick for Botes! Good man!

Nice win for the Sharks but was it ever in question?

This weekend however, in the Bull ring, is going to be a far different story. The Bulls were stung by WP and hopefully we can find a way to capitalise on their vulnerability.

Regardless, its going to be a tough game!

There is no doubt that they rate McLeod. At least with Kockott on the bench he can substitute if he's not performing.

Still wondering why Dumond got benched when he was playing so well and in iAfrica's CC team of the week a wee bit back? For me Hernandez hasn't lived up to expectation. Pity!

Maybe this is the game he snaps out of his rustiness ...... there's no way that someone of Juan's pedigree is gonna keep having off games.

Sharks 29 - Bulls 23!!!!

Yeah baby!!

The Bulls fans kept reminding us, rightfully, that the Currie Cup is not won in the 1st week... 2nd week..... 3rd week.... but I wonder how they feel about standings after the 10th week?
