Sharks warm up in style

Durban - The Sharks beat the Falcons 80-3 in a compulsory Currie Cup friendly match in Nigel on Friday night giving their pre-season training a massive boost and demonstrating that they are on the right track at this stage of the season.

In an entertaining and action-filled, but ultimately one-sided contest, the Sharks scored 12 tries en-route to their victory while at the same time, denying their hosts any tries of their own, reducing them to a solitary penalty scored in the second half as their only points of the 80 minutes.

Sharks:

Tries: Jacques Botes (3), Michael Rhodes, Tendai Mtawarira, Mark Richards, Dwayne Jenner, Keegan Daniel (2), Stefan Terblanche, Kyle Cooper, Charl McLeod
Conversions: Rory Kockott (7), Monty Dumond (1), Jacques Botes (1), Keegan Daniel (1)
