RECAP: Sharks v Bulls
READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the Currie Cup Round Nine encounter between the Sharks and Bulls at Kings Park.
The Bulls will be in a unique situation when they are playing a “home game” against the Sharks in Durban.
The teams decided to switch the venue after the Durbanites missed out on a number of home games that were cancelled due to the unrest in KwaZulu-Natal.
