Saarks at Kimberley. Tough to play against the kwaste away, especially for soft city boys. This is a nightmare scenario for Bosch, hard as nails players targeting his channel. Might be closer than you'd think.

If the Bulls game against te Pumas next week get cancelled due to Corvid-19 at Pumas then either the Sharks/Stormers can still catch them on the log.

Could be, but that is not how the Stormers want it. We want to earn it on the field. I thought that is how you would have preferred it as well.

The Cheetahs believe local franchises should earn the right to play in the PRO16, while the union is still considering legal action if they don’t get the desired outcome from negotiations with SA Rugby
Completely agree

I don't think Oom was hoping for that outcome, just commenting that it could happen.

Completely agree
How did the Cheaters earn the right to play in the Pro14 a few years ago?

Probably after years and years of mismanagement of an area that is a Bok conveyor belt.

I don't hate the FS though, I genuinely think they've been shafted with this new deal and deserve to be kept in Pro## rugby .

They have always been my favourite second side, if we ignore Border.

So you think that because they got shafted in Superrugby they must automatically get shafted in Pro14

I didn't say that. I'm asking how they earned the right to play Pro14.

Some pretty poor stuff from the Sharks.

Not concentrating on the tackle, and forwards (especially van Heerden) thinking they can take the ball high into contact with hope of boshing the opponent.

Just need to slow it down and have a bit more respect for the Griquas defence.

Note I only caught the last 13 minutes of the half.

Why did the commentators think that might be a 22 restart?

It is either carried back and grounded by Griquas, or carried forward by Sharks and held up. Either case a scrum.

Only way a restart if knocked on by Sharks and grounded, which clearly didn't happen.

The Sharks have taken advantage of the ref's fairly liberal approach to offside at rucks this half.

Griquas defence has really dropped off

Thats why you need a proper kicker at flyhalf.

When Curwin lined up that last kick I was so glad that game was over. Can't keep expecting Curwin to win us the games.

Shem....must have broken your heart when Bosch nailed that long range penalty to win the match. I won't wonder if you were hoping he would miss .

If you compare the Stormers game against Griquas there's hard work for the Sharks this week.

Kade Wolhuter is a much better kicker then Bosch.

Quade must still get onto the pitch, it will probably happen once the Stormers have racked up a 30 point lead. He will then put the final nail into the coffin.

Oom reckons it will be a huge victory to the Cheetahs, but we all know that he is senile so mustn't be taken seriously.
