Both teams look better on paper and this should be a spirited game. Sharks desperate for a win.
Where is Moody and Fassie. Injured?

What the hell is that Sharks kit? Looks like a soccer team.
Nice take Jordan.
Oupa Willie around Kolisi.
Like the intensity of the game. Both sides have come to play.
What a touch finder from Pollard!
No clear evidence of Bulls grounding. Tough luck. Bulls.
Accidental head contact by the wrapping arm. Good decision by the ref.
Haha, what a break by Rudolph all the way to the 22 and then Kunene intercepts and scores.
Sharks get lucky and score intercept try against run of play. Sharks lead 7 nil
Sharks haven't seen much of the ball.
Grobbelaar with a great turnover.
Handre dead eye as always. 7-3 S
Sharks over complicating things out back a bit. Good tackle dislodging the ball from Hooker.
Bulls scrum owning.
Bulls front row dominate and win penalty.
Pollard again goes for posts.
Score Sharks lead 7 - 6.
7-6 as Handre slots another.
Sharks over. Jordan doing some good things out there, nice dummy and offload to Hooker. I thought I saw a possible knock in there, sounds like they're checking.
Ja Kunene dropped it, that's what I saw. Lucky break Bulls.
Now Sharks have little knock on. No try.
LOL, Bulls just destroying the Sharks scrum. Put Esterhuizen in there to steady things!
Stupid by Kriel…no real danger
What a ball by Andre to Kunene. Kriel yet again yellow for slapping the ball down. That's three this season that I know of.
Kriel gets a yellow. I don't find this guy impressive enough to be a Bok center.
Sharks hands letting them down….maybe simpler passing given the humidity
Kriel has journeyman written all over him. Has some smarts in reading the game but does too many stupid things and no real outstanding attributes. Contrast him with Moodie and see how average he comes out.
Sharks get one back in scrum. Not sure if the Bulls were boring in or the Sharks though.
The commentators are clueless
Wilco seemed to have something to say to the assistant ref there. Bulls with a lineout 22.
Wilco was always going to do that…Sharks loosehead looks high in the set.
So what has Siya done so far today?
Should have been penalized a moment ago…a total passenger 90% of the time. Perhaps that’s why we were so good with 14 men in Europe, we were used to it.
Terrible pass Esterhuizen at Hooker's feet.
Hooker now passing at Mapimps shoulder and he drops it. Maybe the ball is a bit slippery.
Esterhuizen needs passing lessons from Allende.
Siya is fading away.
Young Sharks loose head looks promising.
Hot and sweaty balls, Beeno. Same problem you have in the summer. Handre misses. 9-7 B halftime.
Who has the better bench?
Nothing in it for first half.
Pakster I am not really convinced by the Esterhuizen/Hooker combination. Prefer Moodie at 13 to Hooker from what we have seen to date.
I'm happy with either. Lots of handling errors by both teams so conditions seem to be contributing.
