Sharks opening nicely and looking well drilled.

To-lose is playing to win apparently. 7-0

And now they were one or two decent offloads away from another possible score.

Nice handling by Toulouse and it all goes astray the moment ou Anton gets fancy with a backhander.

Great break by Jordan and again the ball is just thrown away in a 50/50 offload.

I know offloading is the Big Thing in rugby now, but I think it's responsible for far more errors than anything constructive. Big contributor to the stop-start nature of modern games.

Jordan spills it in contact right in front of his line but fortunately Toulouse just kick it away.

Sharks still in their 22 I really don't get it. Hendrikse has a massive boot. But the Sharks keep putting themselves under pressure with a slippery ball by trying to run it from their own 22.

Honestly...the Sharks are not winning the field possession and the right to run, but they seem to only want to run. It's humid, slippery and they just refuse to kick. Hendrikse hasn't impressed me with his game management but he has a serious boot.

Lol if you read my commentary then you don't need to watch the half time discussion... They said the Sharks should be losing 20-3 and their failure to clear their lines is costing them.

Sharks immediately start with a short hoist out of their 22, straight to Tolose, who is now hot on attack.

Beautiful behind the back from Ramos and Tolose score. What are the Sharks doing? Having defense practice?
