The heat and humidity may have been a factor but the Sharks have seemingly dispensed with anything that remotely resembles entertainment.

How it was earned though was the ugly and the least memorable part but when it counted, the Bulls made the winning play.

The first half was an anaemic horror show of the Oval ball, one that reminds fans not to waste their hard-earned rands by going to King's Park. Referee Mike Fraser referred the matter to television match official Christie du Preez, who ruled the ball was out. The Bulls were seemingly content to soak up the pressure; probably a mental way of redeeming themselves after being cut up like hot bread repeatedly by the Chiefs last week.
