[2013] Currie Cup: Round 2

Wow, Sharks are horrible on defense. First, a kick by Butch into the corner picked up by Boshoff, passes to Volminck who runs 100 m (end-to-end) to score a try and now Volminck with an intercept try.

Sharks 6-17 Lions after 20 minutes :(


Brynard Stander!!! Sharks get one back! Big Brynard!
 
Sharks steal the ball in the line-out and my boy Heima Williams scores a try!!! 20-17! But it was a bad decision by McLeod (who else) to go short-side

15 minutes to go, 23-25 in favor of the Lions.

SP Marais with an intercept try!!! 31-25 with a conversion to come!

Both Williams and Marais score on debut!

33-25 win for the Sharks.

Blue Bulls against the GWK Griquas now.

I hate Nico Scheepers. Last week against the Sharks he couldn't miss a shot on goal, and today against the Bulls he misses 2 in the first 10 minutes.
 
Ruan Snyman off with a yellow card. Bulls with 14 men.

Snyman back, Bulls scored 6 points while being a man down. 12-6


15-9 final score. Boring game.
 
Heimar Williams looked good, great to see!
SP also looked up for it, think we were better off getting him than Andries Coetzee, thanks snoiL!
 
It was a game of 2 halves. A lot of things went wrong but the youngsters really tried their best. With Ludik leaving, it's good to see Williams making a name for himself. Zeilinga looked decent in both games so far which is a good sign. He can push Lambie and with Robert du Preez in the U21 team, we are looking very good for the future in that department.
 
Good game by the Cheetahs, pity they gave it away in the last 5 minutes.
