South African smack downs highlighted round 13 of Super Rugby with the Lions and Sharks both scoring over 50 points.

The Lions were briefly down 6-5 to the Jaguares, before a length of the field try from Lionel Mapoe sparked the side into life and a 52-24 pounding.

The Sharks went arguably one better, hammering the Kings down 53-0.

Paul Jordan had the pick of their tries as he finished off a move straight from the restart.

Israel Dagg got on the scoresheet, but he'll be first to credit his teammates. Richie Mo'unga's crossfield kick was brought down by Johnny McNicholl, and the winger did well to offload in the tackle to his fullback.

Derek Carpenter will also be thanking his first five-eighth for a cheeky assist. The Sunwolves centre was set up marvellously by Tusi Pisi's quick hands.

Tevita Li caps the top five tries as the Blues got back to winning ways with a gritty 17-13 win over the Western Force in Perth.
