The Sharks controlled the majority of proceedings, only to be pegged back by Ollie Hassell-Collins' excellent finish in what was an entertaining encounter between two of last season's top-four teams.

Ultimately, however, Alex Sanderson's side ensured a repeat of the outcome of their semi-final against the Tigers back in May.

Sale were forced into a late change at full-back, with Tom O'Flaherty coming in for Joe Carpenter and the visitors were further rocked by conceding the game's opening try after eight minutes.
