Bulls book final spot

-

THE BULLS sealed their place in the Guinness PRO14 Rainbow Cup final with a 34-22 victory over the Sharks in Durban.

Jake White’s men held a four- point advantage over their hosts heading into the clash and finished the job with a bonus- point victory in their final match of the league stage.

Cornal Hendricks, David Kriel, Stravino Jacobs and Janko Swanepoel crossed for the Bulls, who will now head to Treviso to take on northern section victors Benetton next weekend. JJ Van Der Mescht had scored the game’s first try for the Sharks, who also saw Springboks captain Siya Kolisi and Anthony Volmink touch down.

The result leaves the Sharks third behind the Stormers at the end of the competitio­n, after the Cape Town outfit were awarded four points following the cancellati­on of their match with fourth- placed Lions.
