Sharks (17) 27 / Lions (3) 3 (Final Score)
The Sharks hosted the MTN Lions at Kings Park, Durban at 19:10 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA.
The Sharks scored their bonus point try after the final hooter via a quick tap by McLeod from a penalty and going over under the sticks, eventually winning by a 24-point margin against a Lions side who seem to be regressing and showing all the traits of last year.
Scorers:
Sharks: 1 Conversion Meyer Bosman, 1 Penalty Jacques-Louis Potgieter, 1 Try Louis Ludik, 1 Try Willem Alberts, 1 Try JP Pietersen
Lions: 1 Penalty Elton Jantjies

Jeepers JLP missed again. No man we wasting points by all these misses. Lions always come back they have done against many teams. Hope this don’t cost us these missed kicks. They sure cost us against the Saders.
We miss Lambie huge. Really hope he is back after the bye.
@ grootblousmile:
KP en K9 het lekker getjirp vanmore, nou is hul MIA.
14 points difference at the moment… my prediction was 21…. 7 to go
62@ superBul:
Die wiel draai mos maar altyd….
56: wie is die meeste van vorm af: Proteas, Habana, die Bulle of Ernie ?
@ bdb:
jy moet op WTR gaan help , hulle sny nog vandag polse
dankie tog n sa span wat score behalwe die cheetahs.
😆@ superBul:
2nd half now on, will be interesting
great tackle by Adi , who says he cant tackle 😉
67: Ongelukkig niks om oor opgewonde te raak nie, ‘n wen teen die span wat laaste lê, beteken nie veel vir Sharks om hulself aan te meet nie.
Al ons spanne het in die dam geduik, en huidiglik is ons rugby nie goed nie.
@ bdb:
Al die coaches het besluit om met PdV saam te werk en hul spelers te rus.
Sharks will get their bonus point soon.
Penalty Sharks, 5m out
@ superBul:
net the Last Outpost of the British Empire wat weer dwars trek :LOL:
Relieving penalty for the Lions
JLP should have passed there.
bdb.jy gee die stormers krediet as jy se hulle het net in die dam geduik.
72: bulle gaan nog teen die reds ook rus, en daarna alles wen 😉
30 min left.
Game quite static now, not much happening
Sharks playing the territorial game well with the Lions being so bad at lineout time
Terrible pass by JLP. He is costing us.
@ Puma:
that was a sublime kick for Odwas try
Manne, ons het nie tans in SA ‘n agterlyn wat die Saders of AB’s bang kan hardloop nie. So ons kort ‘n wedstrydplan waar ons voorspelers so oorheers dat die AB/Saders agterlyn niks balle kry nie.
So as ons nie ‘n pak het wat oorheers nie, gaan ons groot pak kry in beide die 3N en WB.
Enige planne ?
81@ Puma:
Jacques-Louis helped make JP Pietersen’s try with that inch-perfect kick though, so he is not all bad
J-L Potgieter slotsa penalty.
Sharks 20 / 3
@ grootblousmile:
i agree he has not been that bad ,
@ grootblousmile:
I know but he missed 4 kicks boeta. If we were playing any other team those missed kicks could have cost us. We have to slot em over.
Anyhow now hope my Sharks get that bonus point cause we need it.
Penalty Lions, easily kickable
@ bdb:
Steenkamp weet jy waneer hy terugkom? Dan moet ons die Sharks smeek om Jannie en Beast en JS reg te gebruik. Slotte het ons vrek baie.
87@ Puma:
2 of his kicks were from touch, one 45m out…. relax brother, old Lambie will be back shortly for you guys.
There Kokott goes and misses a Lions penalty from slap bang in front as well
