    Flyhalf Carter was recalled to the starting line-up after missing the 27-0 mauling of the champion Bulls last Saturday because of a hamstring problem but was ruled out again after it tightened on him again in training on Wednesday.

    Loosehead, and I believe they will! You back from the country that gave us leather shorts and Stukas yet?

    Cheetah4eva on 14 April 2011 at 9:32 am

    Yes, the Cheetahs have been moving under the radar. They have a good home stretch to the play-offs

    Hurricanes at home
    bye
    Brumbies at home
    Lions
    Crusadres at home
    Rebels at home
    Bulls
    Sharks at home
    Bye
    Stormers at home

    They can realistically finish on 35 points, with 8 coming from bye’s and potential wins over ‘Canes, Rebels, Lions and Brumbies and either a win or bonus points from the Bulls/Sharks/Crusaders and Stormers

    That would be a big improvement on previous seasons!!

    And the injured players are slowly starting to return!! Considering their injury count the Cheetahs have done reasonably well to lose by less than 7 in 5 matches!!

    2 Points vs the Bulls
    6 Points vs the Stormers (away)
    5 Points vs the Lions
    7 Points vs the Blues (away)
    3 Points vs the Highlanders (away)

    Go Cheetahs!!! Go Bulls!! Sharks should win this weekend lol and Go Lions/Stormers!!

    Blue Bird on 14 April 2011 at 7:50 pm

    I hate to say this, I have put Reds to beat The Bulls on superBru…..I feel sort of queasy !! 🙁

  • 15

    superBul on 14 April 2011 at 8:56 pm

    @ Blue Bird:
    Dammit you cant be serious!!!!!
    Hey girl you must be joking Bulls to lose by 10. 😆 dont worry you know 2 times more than me who will win next. Great run on SBru.

    But dont count the Champs out yet…..

  • 16

    Blue Bird on 14 April 2011 at 9:04 pm

    @ superBul:
    Trust me, it was not easy……

    I have warned you I am ruthless in my quest to win the Rugby Talk tin of condensed milk for the top position on Rugby Talk superBru!!!!

    I hope our ‘Blue Champs’prove me wrong against the Reds though!! 😉

  • 17

    Puma on 14 April 2011 at 9:27 pm

    @ Blue Bird:14 – Traitor 😯 …hehehehe. Actually I went with Reds too. Only cause how Bulls played last week and Reds played. But thinking now that Bulls could win. Reds had a hard game against Stormers and had to travel back from CT to Brisbane. Bulls could win it by a few.

  • 18

    Puma on 14 April 2011 at 9:29 pm

    @ Blue Bird:hehehe. 😆 Never mind the condensed milk, you win it, gbs has to get the best some of the Capes finest wine and fly it out to… 🙂

  • 19

    Blue Bird on 14 April 2011 at 9:51 pm

    @ Puma:
    No offence to GBS but he would not know a fine Cape wine if it slapped him in the palete…..he would probably send me one of his finest ‘Jeripico’s’ (did I spell that right)?

    Gosh, that is vile stuff…..like sherry that granny drinks!! Bleaughhhhhh

    Do you really think the Reds will have a difficult match? The Bulls by all accounts were pretty feeble on Saturday!! Hope this week has given them chance to reflect and get a grip!!

  • 20

    Puma on 14 April 2011 at 10:01 pm

    @ Blue Bird:19 – Well going by the Reds having a hard game last week and their travel. But their tails will be up, they have never won two games on the trot here in SA. So they could be one difficult team to beat, but Bulls will be better this weekend. Hoping. Just have to see. I also have Reds to win. Just have to see how it goes.

    Well gbs can’t send you that extra sweet junk….hehehehehe. It has to be the Cape’s finest. Whatever you drink. Probably a white wine I think… 🙂

    Anyhow my Sharks definitely get 4 points this week. :mrgreen:

    Puma on 14 April 2011 at 10:04 pm

    @ Blue Bird:Then you can’t go by what I say. I am way, way below you on bru. 😯 hehehe
