The Bulls home ground, Loftus is sold out for todays game.
Last tickets went yesterday morning
Just over 50,000 fans.
Obviously there will be mainly Bulls supporters
Although there will be a lot of Sharks supporters due to the number of
ex-Durban people living in the Johannesburg, Pretoria area. Also quite a
number of buses and cars are making the 600km trip from Durban to Pretoria.
The Bulls vs. Sharks game should be a cracker. Everyone is talking about
this game almost as muchg as they did for the 1990 Bulls / Sharks Currie
Cup Final.
Both teams need 5 points to have a slender hope for a semi final berth
(the Brumbies still have to lose one and drop other points)
Add this to this being a big local derby. I expect fireworks
I have not anticipated a game this much since the 2004 NZ-SA game in
Cape Town. I cannot wait. I will be esconced in my local pub an hour
before the Cheetahs game. Then the big game followed by the Stormers vs.
Crusaders game. I should be in a fine state by 9pm. Good thing I become
more loveable the more I drink!
Go Sharks and may the best side win.

LOL. Where do you live Dave? I live in Swellendam but stay in Century City
during the week.

Yep, a great days sport ahead Dave. I'm looking forward to all 3 of this
afternoons games, and mixed in with the cricket and the Chelsea v Man Utd
game, there's a lot to take in. I've already informed my wife that I'm
unavailable this afternoon and I'm just off to the High St for a couple of 6
packs.
Go Stormers, and of course to a lesser extent Sharks, Cheetahs, Man U and
the Proteas.

I'm not a Man U fan mind you. I'd just don't like Chelsea. My side are
Hearts, from Edinburgh, 2nd in league and pushing for Champions League spot
next year. I do hope the Sharks win though as it'd be good to see them
re-emerge as the force they were not so long ago. SA rugby needs it.
