The Sharks will conclude their United Rugby Championship on Saturday with a meeting with the Bulls at Durban's Kings Park Stadium.
The Sharks will look to get their fifth win of this United Rugby Championship when they take on the Bulls.
After a season of ups and downs, the Sharks will be looking to close their United Rugby Championship campaign on a high when they host the Bulls at Durban’s Kings Park Stadium on Saturday. And although the Challenge Cup win has been the Sharks’ silver lining this season, we cannot dismiss the dismal showing in the URC, not for a team with so many star performers in it and a coach with plenty of international experience.The team not only took time to adjust to the style of play Plumtree and Co wanted to implement, but somewhat surprisingly the team was said to have had zero culture as well.
Since March the Sharks have won three games and lost another three, leaving them in 13th place on the URC points table with 25 points.So while this season’s URC has been bad for the Sharks, Saturday’s derby showdown with the Bulls is an opportunity for them to lay down a marker for next season.
