Sharks brace for Stormers

The Sharks narrowly beat the Bulls 20-17 in another local derby in the URC last weekend to take them up to fourth on the overall table (first in the South African shield).

It was a thrilling match from start to finish and if it had not been for Bulls flyhalf Johan Goosen missing two penalties in the second half, the result would have gone the other way.

But the Sharks deserve credit as their second-string side defended well at the death. They held back three driving mauls at the end to clinch the win.
