Clear your Saturday because the Hollywoodbets Sharks are taking on the DHL Stormers at Hollywoodbets Kings Park in another epic showdown.
The boys in black and white will be fighting for bragging rights after their massive statement win in Cape Town last weekend.
The Sharks stunned the Stormers 30–19 at a packed Cape Town Stadium, breaking a long-standing Vodacom United Rugby Championship (URC) hoodoo and snapping the Capetonians’ unbeaten run, costing them the top spot in the URC table.
There’s extra weight to this clash as it’s one of the final opportunities to see Siya Kolisi in a Sharks jersey. With only a handful of matches left before his departure, every home game now feels like a farewell tour.
Don’t miss the afterparty
In typical Shark Tank fashion, the party continues after the final whistle – this time with the vibrant sounds of South Africa’s own Freshlyground.
Globally known for their 'Waka Waka' collaboration with Shakira for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Freshlyground is bringing its distinctive fusion of African and contemporary styles to the Shark Tank for an epic post-match party!
