Try Saders ?
Fark, lets hope all the cameramen went to sleep there!
Held up I would say…
Come Cheetahs! We need a long range try! No not a short range to the ”Sader
Can’t give this one.. no ways
Geen bewyse vir ‘n drie nie.
Hou manne hou! Turnover and scoot for a try!
That won’t be given, scrum 5 Crusaders
Not awarded
5m Scrum Saders… even more dangerous
No draw! We want to go for the win!
Can never award that, just can’t see if it was grounded.
Try should come now though…
Saders over again… held up again
Held up this time, and another scrum
‘Saders in strong position! Be strong boys! Staunch defence!
Try Saders…
Defence boys
Almost… almost again….
Hmmmm….
Too easy in the end
Try Saders…. Israel Dagg
Well what will happen in these last minutes…
Crusaders 28 / 21 Cheetahs
Damn Saders eventually get the try.
Come on Cheetahs hit back. A few min still to go.
Ciao a tutti! Moer hulle Staat!
Good try ‘Saders! Great match, game not over yet! ‘Saders have the inside track though! Very proud of the Cheetahs effort today!
C’mon Cheetahs pass the ball
Farm! Knock
So good to see the Staat giving the Saders a tough game. Pity they couldn’t get the draw…
Brave fight by the Cheetahs… very brave
