Staat 3 / 0
Huge mistake by the ex Bulls player. 😆
Try David Smith
Fark, try to the Canes.
No that was dreadfull defence, wakeup cheetahs
Kenmerk van Bulle en Canes: die maklike manier waarop hul drieë druk. Chiefs ook.
Canes 5 / 3
Piri misses the conversion.
Puma dont want it lol, will catch it later when it settles down and put it outside.
Canes miss that kick. 5/3 Canes. Come now Cheetahs don’t let em Canes get away.
Go Cheetahs run em off their feet. This is altitude, tire them and tire them for the Stormers next week too 😆

Wasted oppertunity. Nonu offside.

Staat 6 / 5
The game is too loose, Cheetahs need to slow it down.
Puma all the doors are wide open so they often fly in.
I need the Cheetahs to start playing properly, they are looking very out of it.
Get some structure guys.
Wepu misses again.
Weepu misses AGAIN
Cheetahs PLEASE keep the discipline, not only are they playing a good side they have a damn kiwi ref to deal with too. Bryce Lawrence not the best either.
We also have the very worst commentator to listen to STRANSKY. He drives me crazy.
51 – Treehugs, close them and put the aircon on..haha.
Am going everyone, need to eat, but still watching, soo night night.
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
Oh and the leicester tigers and london irish game is about to start on channel ss6 if you want to flick between them.
This helter skleter game will result in a loss for the Cheetahs………..
58 – Treehugs, Night and thanks for blogging with us. Rather watch this game. Not into the NH rugby, only Munster as that is my team up there.
