Sharks v Reds Tremendous Rugby preview

The new Super Rugby draw which was carried out last yr triggered the Sharks plus the Reds to skip out on enjoying each other in 2011.

The Reds have appreciated some results in Durban for the reason that local climate is pretty similar to their particular Brisbane temperatures in order that they are used towards the disorders.

If the Reds and Sharks engage in each other on common the Sharks score 24 points plus the Reds score 21 details. In Durban the scores are virtually similar to the Sharks on normal score 24 details and also the Reds score 21 factors.


The stats are taken from matches heading back again to 1998 so they incorporate the period of time the place the Reds ended up strugglers and they are now champions and so the averages will to the Reds scores can arguably be increased relatively as they certainly are a lot more powerful now than they were five a long time in the past one example is.

Total the Sharks and Reds have played each other thirteen situations and also the Sharks have won 5 matches and lost eight matches.

In Durban the Reds as well as the Sharks have played one another seven moments and also the Sharks have won just around 50% with the matches with four wins and three losses.

The stats replicate the Sharks honest greater towards the Reds in Durban although not by a whole lot provided which the Reds ended up strugglers for a while.

The Reds have shocked within their alternatives by naming Ben Lucas at ten and heading Mike Harris to twelve as Quade Cooper remains out injured.

The Sharks have shuffled their forwards but stored the backline mainly in tact aside from rotating Frederic Michalak to your bench and endorsing Charl McLeod to beginning scrum half.


The Reds have shown wonderful solve to this point this year and therefore are unbeaten. Should the Sharks get ahead they won't panic and can push via to your finish.

The Sharks meanwhile ended their losing streak by beating the Lions last weekend but the Lions are firing in addition to they did inside the Currie Cup hence the victory isn't as significant since they would've liked.

The Bookies have given the Reds a 5 position begin for this match - with an give of Wager 5 and get fifty in Bets. We predict the Reds solve is pretty powerful whereas the Sharks could nevertheless have a very minor doubt inside their minds. The Reds could sneak this just one by some extent.

This match might be shown on Television NZ, Aus, SA and in the United kingdom on Sky Sports activities one Hd.
