PRETORIA (Reuters) - The Blue Bulls scored six tries in a record-breaking 44-10 Currie Cup final victory over the Sharks at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday to claim back-to-back trophy wins in South Africa's domestic provincial competition.

It was a dominant performance from the more fancied home side, who managed first half tries through centres Harold Vorster and Lionel Mapoe, flanker Marcell Coetzee and lock Janko Swanepoel, before scrumhalf Zak Burger and wing Cornal Hendricks added further scores in the second period.
