5-0 after a Grant Williams try. Williams' shares continue to rise. Best local scrumhalf by miles.

10-5 to Ulster. Sharks have been dreadful without their Boks in recent weeks and today looks like being no exception.

12-10. Sharks strike back with a Thaakir Abrahams try after a good kick through by Boeta Chamberlain.

I like this ref. He just made a mistake by not allowing a 50:22 and making Curwin take the penalty instead and immediately apologised.
Half time. Ulster 17, Sharks 12.
Fair reflection of the 1st half. Sharks just don't have any direction or cohesion.

Just as I'm singing Grant Williams' praises he makes a stupid mistake, picking up the ball behind his tryline and then letting go, standing and watching as the Ulster #12 scores.
24-12.

Sheridan scores for Ulster. Conversion over. 31-19. 22 minutes to go. Sharks will have to show real character to come back from this.

Great backline play from the Sharks, Kok busts the tackle and sends Boeta Chamberlain away to score.
Curwin fluffs the relatively easy and i mportant conversion/ 31-24. 11 minutes to go.

Sharks losing the plot here and panicking in possession. Only 2 mins to go.

Lionel Cronje kicks it away like an idiot and the final whistle goes. Well done Ulster.

Ja, I used to be a Lionel Cronje fan, but that was ridiculously stupid.

This is the result I wanted. Connacht are just 5 points behind the Sharks and have an easier run in the last 4 games, we have a reasonable chance of jumping the Sharks for 7th and getting that Champions Cup qualification sport .
With Stormers having to play Leinster away Ulster also have reasonable chance of taking second off the Stormers as well.

Odd seeing a match where the South African team had the better backline and the Irish team the better pack. We are playing the beautiful game but we need a bit of porridge as well.
