Round 8: Reds v Sharks

[Wally]

Hopefully we don't see a replay of the Reds 6-5 victor over the Sharks at the same ground two years ago. I actually stayed up for that one.

[Groen_en_Goud]

Even worse... I was at the ground!!! The only thing that kept me sane was the fantastic view over the coastline from the Western Stand. (ie. the stand on the right in my signature)

Coach Dick Muir has indicated that he will rotate and rest a few players after doing the full overseas tour. Percy Mongomery will be back in the mix after having been flown back to Durban during the tour.

Easy win for Sharks!

Agree, can't see the red's offering anything in this one

Well they beat Force, put quite an effort vs Tahs, so far so good.

BONUS POINT WIN!!!!! :cheers: :bana: :bravo:

Well done Sharkies. And well done AJ on a great game. I was laughing at the Reds crumbling under the pressure from the Shark forwards.

I was laughing at the Sharks "attacking rugby"

Looks like the Stormers are the only SA team that know how to spead the ball around.
