Last week didn’t have much, but this week had absolutely everything. The boys dig deep to secure a 35-29 victory after a last minute try from Jono Ross takes the game away from the hosts and secures the Sharks a place in the Champions Cup quarter-finals!

Bristol Bears, thanks for putting on a show with us!

Bristol level the scores with another try but Rob du preez is on hand to give us a three point buffer after another successful penalty kick.

A nail biter with ten minutes to play.

Bristol score two tries in 10 minutes whilst taking advantage of a two man advantage. The Sharks have it all to do if they are going to hang on for a place in the quarter finals.

Sale lead 24-17 with a quarter of the match left to play.

The Sharks capitalise after the break. After Akker van der Merwe scores just before halftime, Tom Roebuck slides over in the opening moments of the second half to give Sale a 21 point buffer after Rob du Preez’s conversion.

It’s the South African show so far as a late try from Akker van der Merwe backs up Lood de Jager’s earlier score to give #YourSharks a fourteen point lead heading into the break, despite being a man down.

There’s still a lot of work to do after Arron Reed’s first half red card.

Sale turn the screw inside Bristol territory.

The Sharks kick a penalty to level the scores, before Lood de Jager powers through to score giving us an eight point lead. Rob du preez converts and we’re in control at the gate.

Not much in it after twenty minutes of action. Bristol have a try disallowed after a forward pass in the build up.

Faf de Klerk is shown a yellow card for a tackle off the ball, The Bears kick the resulting penalty to take a three point lead.

It’s all square after ten minutes of play at Ashton gate as both sides test each others arial skills early doors.

We are underway here at Ashton Gate and there are just 80-minutes to decide our fate after a bone crunching encounter at the AJ Bell last week.

Let’s go boys!
