The Cheetahs hosted the Crusaders at Free State Stadium, Bloemfontein, at 19:10 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA.
The Cheetahs recorded a masterful win over serious title contenders, the Crusaders…. and on top of it all kept the Crusaders from recording a single Log poin advance, well done Cheetahs!

Cheetahs (16) 33 / Crusaders (17) 20 (74 min)
Stormers the biggest disapointment of then weekend IMO.
Tackle manne, Tackle your hearts out. All SA are cheering their hearts out for you!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOOOOOOOVE this, i picked the right team, just the bloody Huricannes did not do the surprize thing for me, all other surprizes are correct
Just do not concede the bonus point
This is truly a weekend where SA Rugby woke up and played to their full potential.
Great win Chwwtahs.
MOTM IMO should go to Johnson.
Brilliant Cheetahs, where is our friends Smallies and C4E , congrats you guys.
Now the Bulls have a much tougher road
Every cheatahs player played their heart out. Bodies fully on the line. They never stood back an inch and they made all Saffas proud. I told you so, I FELT IT IN MY WATER!!!!
Geluk aan die Staat.
Saders moet nog Reds gaan speel, en Blues ook.
Hierdie reeks gaan nog ‘n paar verrassings oplewer.
Reds lyk die beste op hierdie stadium.
MOM must be the team, or Sias , Robert and Ashley all sharing it.
ek kry sommer n pielstuif!!!!!!!!!!
I think i was never this excited for another teams successes , well done Blikore
Flipping well played Cheetahs.
At last our “also rans” are starting to show what SA Rugby is really about.
Please let the Lions and Cheetahs make me eat my words about SA not deserving 4 Super Rugby teams, let alone 5.
Sh1t I love this sport.
Man Utd are but a bunch of kids compared to these men that play RUGBY FOOTBALL.
As Blues volgende week die Stormers wen, en die Bulle wen die Sharks, dan is hierdie 3 spanne 4 punte van mekaar, dit kan nog rof raak. Cheetahs het ook nog ‘n buitekans, en soos hul nou speel, wil nie enige van die ander 3 spanne teen hul speel nie.
@ smallies72:
Ek het al lankal… joke net 😆
Geluk ou maat, vir die tweede week in n ry het jou span die beste rugby opgedis.
Only Stormpoppies choked this weekend otherwise could have been a clean sweep by the saffa sides. Cheatahs moered the saders by 13 points and they refused to let them get the bonus. Mooi so ouens!
Cheers All.
Battery now well and truly DEAD.
Geluk Smallies en alle Cheetahs, pas net die laaste gedeelte gekyk, dit was n grote!!!!
jis ou pieta dit was baie mooi
@ Pietman:
ek wonder waar is die ouens wat so orgasmes gekry het oor sonny bill crockett.n 89 kg sentertjie genaamd magic eberson het hom gebreek,bwahahahaha!!!!
@ superBul:
Klink so ou bees, Cheetahs eintlik ongelukkig om nie n beter posisie op die log te beklee nie, paar naelskraapse neerlae…..maar hulle speel darem wragtag aanskoulike rugby, afgesien van wenrugby.
k@kpraat vrede het sy bek goed op keo uitgespoel,ek log sommer op net om hom kakkas te vertel
@ Pietman:
Ja stem , het vroeer die week gese, het hulle die games teen die Bulle en Leeus gewen was hulle reg daar in die hoofstroom. Daai 50-47 game ook, kan nie onthou of dit Hur or High was
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
So moet ‘n Crusader kak!
@ Loosehead:
Net so my chomma,maar die crusaders het nou gemaak dat ek n lelike babie het
