For sure.This Sharks team can be so good. If only they could do what they've done tonight consistently.
I did not expect the Sharks to do this well. They have been great thus far.
Been saying this all season, on paper they a dam good side! But there theoretical potential is not replicated on the field. But when they do fire they quite spectacular! What I would give to see either the Sharks or the Stormers coached by John Mitchell!
The Guinness PRO14 is poised for further expansion with three more South African sides set to join the competition by the start of the 2020-21 season.
Celtic rugby’s main tournament grew from 12 teams to 14 for the start of this campaign, South African-based outfits Toyota Cheetahs and Southern Kings heading to the northern hemisphere.
It is understood two more South African sides will enter the PRO14 for the 2019-20 season with another jumping on board for the campaign after.
Natal Sharks are understood to be the first team likely to commit to joining the Cheetahs and Kings in taking on sides from Wales, Ireland and Scotland on a regular basis in domestic competition.
The Lions and Stormers are the most likely to follow suit, though which of those two would join first is unclear.
South Africa’s franchises have grown increasingly disillusioned with competing in Super Rugby alongside opposition from New Zealand, Australia and Argentina.
The South African Rugby Union believe their sides are handicapped due to the different time zones in the competition and the unfair composition of the conferences.
