Cousins Daniel Minns, Jarrod Smith and Tyler Smith being 3 of those 5.
Daniels Minns in true form kicked the day off crossing the line in the 4th minute close to the sideline which made Pearce's kick attempt hard and unsuccessful but on a day like this he had plenty of chances to perfect on that.
A short time later Dylan Baldry found his way across the try line and 3 minutes later Nathan Kerr crossed behind him. Pearce was only successful in converting Baldry's try. 5 minutes later Tyler Smith crossed the line and Pearce converted successfully.
Anthony Conlan was next to break through the defence and cross the white line followed by Arnold Turnbull 5 minutes later. Pearce converted both of those tries with ease.
The boys then went quiet letting the Sharks cross the line in the 29th minute but their conversion attempt was unsuccessful. Jarrod Smith then crossed the line with 5 minutes to go in the first half. Half time score: 36 - 4.
The Blues came back from half time and kicked off in style with Arnold Turnbull weaving through the defence and crossing the line in the first minute next to the post making Pearce's conversion attempt easy and successful.
But then the boys went to sleep and the Sharks attack took advantage crossing the line 3 times until Minns broke the defence and crossed the line for his 2nd try for the day putting the Blues back into the game.
Pearce's conversion was unsuccessful. The Sharks then crossed the time for the last time in the match and the Blues were then back with Jarrod Smith and Tyler Smith both scoring their 2nd tries within 4 minutes of each other. Jake Kingston then broke through the Sharks defence in the 77th minute.
Pearce conversion was successful. Dylan Baldry then sealed the deal crossing the line right on the 80th minute. Pearce converted Baldry's try and this saw the final score Kendall 68 - Sharks 24. Man of the Match went to Alex Pearce who kick 8 from 13 goals.
