The Sharks overcame difficult handling conditions to beat the Auckland Blues 26-12 in round two of the Super 15.

On a humid Saturday in Durban, the home side were never behind and led 16-9 at halftime, thanks to a converted try and three penalties from flyhalf Patrick Lambie.

Springboks wing JP Pietersen came off the bench to score in the second half and Lambie added a penalty and a conversion, for a personal tally of 21 points.

The Blues' points came from flyhalf Stephen Brett, who kicked three penalties and Luke McAlister, who added one.

The match marked the return to action of Springboks captain John Smit, who came on for hooker Bismarck du Plessis in the second half, after a five-month layoff due to neck surgery. – Sapa-AP
