Sharks nail Stormers

MONDAY, 11.45AM:

THE Coastal Sharks reaffirmed their position as contenders for the Super-12 crown by demolishing the Western Stormers by 32-17 at Kings Park on Saturday.

The Sharks and Springbok skipper Gary Teichmann scored two tries in a thrilling performance in front of his home crowd. Heartening to see was the return to form of rock-hard centre Pieter Muller, whose bruising breaks and crushing tackles will most certainly put him on the shortlist for Springbok duty.
