Rugby-Super Rugby highlights

April 29 (Reuters) - Highlights from round 10 of Super Rugby. FORCE 20 BULLS 42 South Africa's Bulls rampaged to a bonus-point victory over a spent Western Force in Perth on Friday. Centre Jan Serfontein and hooker Adriaan Strauss bagged a brace of tries each to go with a score from number eight Hanro Liebenberg. The visitors had a narrow 18-13 lead at the break, but pulled away in the second half to move level with the Stormers at the top of Africa Conference 1 on 28 points with both teams having played eight matches. CHIEFS 24 SHARKS 22 The Chiefs held on grimly to stave off a late assault by the visiting Sharks and maintain top spot in the New Zealand conference after an energy-sapping clash in New Plymouth on Friday. The Sharks scored three tries to two but costly lapses of discipline allowed Chiefs flyhalf Aaron Cruden to give the hosts breathing space with three penalties late in the second half after the game was locked 15-15 at the break. Replacement hooker Chiliboy Ralepelle set up a tense finish with a late try for the Sharks but the Chiefs soaked up the final minutes deep in attack.
