Springbok-laden Sharks thrash Bulls in Durban: The Sharks ran riot to register a convincing 47-20 bonus-point victory over the hapless Bulls in an exciting United Rugby Championship (URC) match at Kings Park Stadium in Durban on New Year’s Eve.
The Sharks went to the break leading 30-12 after tries by Grant Williams and Mbonambi and a penalty try that led to Springbok winger Canaan Moodie being sent to the sin bin.
Before he was shown a yellow card, Moodie scored the only try for the Bulls in the first half as they struggled to cope with the sheer aggression, power and control of the Sharks. Johan Goosen crossed the white line for the Bulls in the second half but they did not apply enough pressure to overcome the Sharks who outscored them by four tries to two in front of a lively crowd in Durban.
The Sharks continued to dominate the game and they scored two more second-half tries from Rohan Janse van Rensburg to secure this convincing win. Another notable contributor to the scoreboard was Bosch who scored 20 points. The other notable highlight of the game came during the closing stages when Moodie was shown a red card for unsporting play in what seemed to sum up the Bulls' showing on the coast.Tries: Grant Williams, Bongi Mbonambi, Rohan Janse van Rensburg
