Heartless Sharks lose to Vibrant Vultures

The Vultures engineered their first win in two years over a toothless Sharks outfit at Vauxhall High School on Saturday. Its the first time in six (6) meetings that the Vultures have gotten the best of the Sharks.

The game had to be reduced to thirty minutes half due to the late start. The Sharks saw very little ball in the first half after they started brilliantly with Kareem Jhagroo collected the kick and offloading to Ryan Grant who sped upfield before being eventually tackled on the vultures 30 metre line. The sharks elected to swing the ball wide on the ensuing play and a wayward pass saw them lose possession and they never recovered. The Vultures constantly threw themselves at the Sharks line and frequently offloaded the ball. Vultures young star Brian "Stiffler" Hutchinson continues to show good form before heading to England by scoring a double. It was one way traffic as the Sharks saw little if any of the ball for the remaining half. Jadeek Clarke and Tyrone Rowe backed up Hutchinson with 4 pointers in the 24th and 30th miuntes of play.

The Sharks awoke from their slumber late in the game and got consulation tries from standhalf Renaldo Wade and hooker Andre Reid.

The game saw the debut of former West Indies RU 7's player Everton "Monkey Man" Richards who played at fullback for the Vultures. He made some good runs and seem to fit in well with his newly adopted code.  

"We simply didn't not cover the middle of the field, their props had a good day. We need to be more consistent, we can't afford to play good one week and then do not show up the other week after. The difference between good teams and great teams is that great teams are consistent week after week. We have to do better playing at this level", stated Sharks captain Roy Calvert.

Final score Vultures 36, Sharks 12.

Should the Sharks panic about their 2009 season?
