Gio Aplon shows his sheer class scoring an exceptional try to give the perfect response for Western Province. Aplon danced through the defensive line then bamboozled SP Marais with his footwork to run in under the posts.

Lwazi Mvovo does very well to cross the line, holding off a number of tackles without much space. The Sharks needed this score, will it spark them into life.

Western Province land a huge psychological blow with a massive scrum which eventually earns them a penalty.

Sharks enjoying a few minutes of good possession and territory. Looking somewhat toothless however in attack. Worsening conditions not helping the standard of attacking play.

Kyle Cooper is back on the field after Craig Burden is deemed unfit to continue.

Half time whistle goes, Western Province looking very comfortable at the minute. However they have impressed in the first half of games and faded out in the second half in recent weeks so they will look to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Craig Burden returns from the blood bin in place of Kyle Cooper who had replaced him earlier.

Sharks fail to make any head-way from the good attacking platform presented to them. Instead they are forced back and eventually lose the ball.
