Line out to the Bulls in their own half!
Sharks kick off.
The Shark Tank will be hosting today's match of two South African Super Rugby teams, the Sharks vs the Blue Bulls! The Sharks have lost two games so far in the tournament both of which were South African teams, the one at home against the Stormers 11-16 and the other was against the Blue Bulls in week 4 at Loftus Stadium, final score 37-14. Although the Bulls thrashed the Sharks a couple of weeks ago, the Bulls lost horribly against the Chiefs at home and the Sharks doubled their opponents score in their last game against the Rebels. The Sharks will also have the home field advantage. With only 2 points separating the two teams in the South African Conference, this match will have a huge effect on the log. My name is Ted Barber and I will be giving you today's updates.
The Sharks have won seven of their last eight Super Rugby games on home
turf, losing only to the Stormers in that period.
The Bulls are undefeated in their last eight Super Rugby games against the Sharks (W7, D1), last losing to the Durban club in Round 1, 2014.
