Quins will be 'tough'
Jenny Dixon2/ 5/2008
SHARKS’ head coach Kingsley Jones wants his team to deal with their exit from the European Challenge Cup with a good performance against Harlequins this Sunday.
Sharks travel to the Stoop this weekend for what could be their last away fixture of the season.
"It was a massive disappointment last Saturday," Jones said. "We went through the Bath match on Tuesday and now we will close the book on it.
"Quins will be another tough test in the same sort of environment [as last Saturday], against the same sort of team and probably in the same sort of conditions. We let ourselves down against Bath and now we want to put that right."
Harlequins are currently fourth in the Premiership, while Sharks are just one point below them in fifth.
However, there is a huge gulf between what these positions can mean to a team - fourth earns a play-off place and shot at the league title, as well as guaranteeing Heineken Cup qualification. For the team in fifth the chance of playing in Europe is based on results outside their control.
SHARKS’ last regular match of the season is at Edgeley Park on May 10 (kick-off 3pm) against London Irish.To book tickets call 08444 994 994 or order online at www.salesharks.com
