I really like Jim Hamilton as a commentator. Made me laugh out loud a few times.

Great Chilli. :thumbup: I would take a 1 point win. The Stormers are in great form at the moment.

If the Sharks beat Leinster today they can catch Leinster mathematical for top spot.

But that's just dreaming from a mad supporter like me.

One game at a time and last night second half was great.

:lol: ja that's shite. Our kickers get motivated by it. When we played up north, the silence upset them.

Connact get the win but the ref have no idea of a dominate scrum.

Now for the big one.

Ulster and Glasgow like a bit of booing, they might have been more at home there.

Think Sharks will win here.

Connacht were very happy the game ended when it did, as that last scrum was absolutely on roller skates.

It's ever more noticeable the way the SA teams are struggling to manage the breakdowns, because if Connacht are getting as many turnovers from them as they did, it's something they really need to work on.

Locks should not have pony tails. As a Sharks supporter I don't mind targeting of pony tails.

Hendrikse is really good, but his decision making isn't consistently top quality yet, only 22 years old could develop into a really excellent player could also not. Entirely depends on his mindset, if he's windgat at all he won't maximize his potential.

Emotional win given the flooding disaster. I reckon this Sharks side needs another season though, and maybe some signings too, shouldn't have been that close.
