0-0 after 7min. Bosch kicks straight to the Chiefs. They return and Bosch again boots it down their throats. Net loss of about 30m for the Sharks in the end .
Trouble as Nkosi shoots out of line and leaves a man over. Chiefs can't use it and their attack peters out. Penalty advantage though and they have a kickable one 40m out right in front.
3-0 Chiefs 11min.
Bosch beats a few defenders on the counter. Sharks on attack in the 22.
Coenie knocks and the Sharks attack is over.
What a pathetic pass Sharks. Before that fat Co enie knocks on. All inside Chiefs 22
Chiefs attempt to attack from their own line and knocks it. Sharks have it. Poor pass kills any attack but they have an attacking scrum.
Sharks can't get the ball out of the scrum and concede a penalty. Opportunity lost.
Great cleanup by a Du Preez twin after a poor Chiefs lineout throw. Bosch with a great counter after the Chiefs kick upfield. Sharks attack.
Poor pass to Du Preez and result is knock on.
How the heck can you be so poor when you are supposedly a professional.
Wake up Sharks.
Fassi runs straight back into the massed defense instead of attacking the spaces outside him and another Sharks attack dies. Chiefs scrum 7m from their line.
Early shove Sharks, free kick. Elementary mistakes. Chiefs clear to inside the Sharks half.
Not the same Sharks side we saw last week. Conditions do look quite damp out there.
Dropped pass again ruins great attacking opportunity. Amazing.
Sharks have it, kick into the 22. Chiefs return. Quick throw Bosch. Fassi makes a good break, Sharks close now, need quick ball and they knock it.
Bosch amassing the running meters on the counter but not so hot with general flyhalf play so far .
Great take in the air Nkosi. Lienrt-Brown giving the Chiefs their initial attacking momentum from deep through Bosch's channel. His defense is a big weakness.
Fassi on the counter seeks out two Chiefs loosies and gets driven meters back. Guy needs to look for the spaces.
Moli rumbles through Louw's tackle and Weber scores.
Face facts the SA sides are NOT professionals. The are interested amateurs.
Chiefs score. Sharks have spent most of match knocking on ball in Chiefs 22.
10-0 Chiefs 27 min. Lots of poor defense in that play from the Sharks.
Handbags! Almost escalated into broomsticks.
Typical very late tackle by dirty Chiefs leads to handbags.
Maybe this will wake up sleepy sharks.
Amazing how the Sharks were so dominant physically last week and this week they look like a bunch of overcooked spaghetti.
Fired up Sharks score.
Now if they can catch the ball we might have a match.
Andrews scores a runaway 40m try after Chiefs can't control the high ball to follow the successful penalty. Sharks back in it. 10-10, 33min .
And now Nkosi concedes a stupid penalty with hands in the ruck. Lineout 5 Chiefs.
Brainless Nkosi gives away penalty.
Leads to chiefs try.
Pathetic.
Simple bash, set, pick and dive to score for Karpik.
Brainless chip ahead by sharks!
17-10 36min. Sharks look a shadow of the defensive powerhouse they were last week. Am makes a stupid chip to turn over possession.
17-13 to chiefs
Penalty now to the Sharks, 30m out right in front. Bosch for the three.
Schreuder repeatedly takes ages to clear . By the time he passes the opponents have regrouped.
17-13 Chiefs at half time. No comment.
Hopefully the Sharks can only improve.
Yes Jean the handling errors and silly mistakes ruined the Sharks efforts.
Early penalty Chiefs. Jacobson strong in the turnover, Du Preez & vd Walt unable to clear him away.
Easy penalty missed by the Chiefs, still 17-13.
