Bulls will travel to Italy for the Rainbow final after seeing off Kolisi's Sharks
By PA
The Bulls booked 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 win for the Bulls 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.

Same as now.
South African sides from any period will have a big bunch of forwards smashing it up and a first five booting everything in their own half.
NZ until recently rarely if ever scrummed for penalties; the scrum is to attack from, broken play, not structured is what we’re after.
Same as now.
These are ways of playing very ingrained into the culture.
If you were in an English club team and were off to Fiji for a game against a club team you’d never heard of and had no footage of, how would you prepare?
For a forward dominated grind or would you assume they will throw the ball about because they are Fijian?
A Fiji way. An English way.
An Australian way depends on who you’ve scraped together that hasn’t been picked off by AFL or NRL, and that changes from generation to generation a lot of the time.
Actually, maybe that is their style. In fact, yes they have a style.
Nevermind. Fuggit I’ve typed it all out now.
