and Leicester - heading into the final round of regular season
Premiership action, Northampton, Harlequins and Sale Sharks are all
scrambling for Champions Cup spots.
The three clubs are separated by just two points, although Quins have
another Champions Cup route if they win next Friday's European Challenge
Cup final against Montpellier in Lyon.
Hurricanes beaten by the Sharks
The Hurricanes had put in one of the performances of the tournament in their previous game to stun the Lions 50-17 in Johannesburg but they never came close to reaching those heights yesterday.
Wing JP Pietersen scored tries either side of halftime to propel South Africa's Sharks to a 32-15 victory over the Hurricanes in their Super Rugby clash at King's Park in Durban.
