  RTÉ.ie Sport - Connacht hammered by Sale Sharks
Sale Sharks cruised into the final of the European Challenge Cup with a 59-9 demolition of an outclassed Connacht side at Edgeley Park.

Sale got the reward for their forward dominance in the 28th minute when scrum-half Bryan Redpath stole the ball at the base of a Connacht scrum and slipped a delightful pass to Hodgson, who skipped past two Connacht tackles and went over in the corner.

 Sale Sharks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sale Sharks are a professional rugby union team who play in England in the Guinness Premiership.
Sale took 20,000 fans to Twickenham for the 1997 Pilkington Cup Final but this interest quickly faded and the anticipated increased crowds never materialised and relegation from the Premier Division loomed likely until rugby union-playing local businessman Brian Kennedy came to the rescue, late in the 1999-2000 season.
Success was not immediate; Sale Sharks finished eleventh and tenth in the 12-strong Premiership table in the first two years of the new Millennium.
