Jake White admitted his team was out-muscled by a powerful, Springbok-filled Sharks team at Kings Park on Saturday. | Sport24news

The Sharks scored five tries en route to a 47-20 five-try bonus point victory over last year’s URC finalists.

Bulls director of rugby Jake White conceded that his team was out-muscled by a Springbok-filled, powerful Sharks team that overpowered them at Kings Park on Saturday. After losing to the Stormers in Cape Town, the Bulls suffered at the hands of some big Bok names, such as Bongi Mbonambi, Eben Etzebeth, Ox Nche, Grant Williams and Siya Kolisi, who all had good games.White said there was no way to instantaneously fast-track his greenhorns to match the Sharks superstars' level."You can clearly see it’s two massive teams with lots of Test experience.

"We leave on Monday, we fly via Dubai to London and then bus to Wales to play the Dragons next Friday night in the URC."We’ve also got Lyon and Scarlets away this month. It’s the toughest block, six to seven weeks, for us.
