Breakdown shaping up as Sharks prepare to sink teeth into Scarlets
Post
|May 14, 2025
THE Sharks can’t afford to be toothless in their final United Rugby Championship (URC) match of the regular season, at home against the Scarlets on Saturday (7.30pm kick-off), with the breakdown shaping up as a key battle area.
The fourth-place Sharks, who defeated the Ospreys 29-10 in Durban at the weekend, have already secured a first URC quarter-final, at home on May 31. But they can still grab third spot if Glasgow Warriors lose against Leinster and they beat the Scarlets at Kings Park in round 18.
The Welsh visitors will have even more to play for, as a loss could see them drop out of the Top 8, and play-off contention.
The Sharks were workmanlike, if unspectacular, in dispatching the Ospreys in front of a decent crowd at the Shark Tank.
