81@ grootblousmile:
Went with Canes by 5
87@ Bullscot:Baing a neutral always makes these type of game fun to watch!
83@ Puma:
Good morning Puma, its been great here for quite a while dry and sunny and warm with March temperature highs been broken galore! Its been like the sunny time we normally get in May. Hows it going there in KZN have you been quite busy with your business? Pity am off to work soon so miss the BIG game later.
90@ Cheetah4eva:
Your Cheetahs must have played well this morning boeta. Looks like a good game to have got up early for. Going to watch the 2nd half now.
Go Cheetahs.
Tight call, but good for the Cheetahs, gives them a chance of going ahead
Penalty Staat, right in front
Cheetahs 35 / 32 Hurricanes
93@ Bullscot:
Good to hear you having good weather mate. Normally this time of year it can be still really cold and wet there.
Here we have had such dry and hot weather, but this morning it is raining so kinda nice for a change.
Pity you going to miss the big game tonight.
Penalty Canes.. Barrett goes for goal… and it’s all tied again
Cheetahs 35 / 35 Hurricanes
Brussouw the bulldog, doing loads of damage in the deep
Staat knock again, 10m out
Fark, these crucial knocks and turn-overs a couple of metres out have farked them over this game!
Turn-over win this match, hands down
Arghhhhhhhhh, almost a Staat try but blown right at the end!
Penalty Staat, within eaaaasy range, but they tap and go… and knock
92@ Just For Kicks:
Know its a bit off topic here but thought that your missus would be please to hear that Glasgow thumped Cardiff last night in the Pro 12 with a bonus point for 4 tries 31-3 win in Glasgow! At the start of the game was concerned Cardiff would be too strong but had only seen the starting lineup and not benches, Glasgow brought Moray Low, Barclay, Ruaridh Jackson and Richie Grey off the bench at stages in the game – not shabby hey – and were way too strong, Cardiff were way below what I expected from them their stars in the backs Sweeny, Roberts, Cuthbert and Halfpenny were just shut out of the game. All round a really nice performance by Glasgow, only downers nasty leg injury to Graeme Morrison and Barclay got stretchered off not sure what for but it looked serious, Roberts also went off with what looks like a bad knee injury I think. Anyway enjoy the game at Newlands later… but not too much GO BULLLS!
Why didn’t Van Zyk pass, guaranteed try gone a-begging
Damn! Just keep attacking Cheetahs!
Piet van Zyl off injured… Matewis takes over at scrummie.
Sorry, but that might just lose the Staat the game!
Tryyyyyyyyyy WP Nel!
98@ Puma:
Cheers mate yes been very unseasonal, we can often have snow this time of year still. Glad you enjoying the rain, have a cool day there, must get into office, have a good day. Come on Cheetahs!
Great try Cheetahs.
Go Cheetahs.
109@ grootPIENKsmile:
Good stuff Cheetahs!
Cheetahs 40 / 35 Hurricanes
92@ Bullscot:Nice uplifting stuff, then you sneak in the killer blow with your Bulls comment – just joking. Great to see the Scots get something right after the 6N debacle – they have the talent, thats for sure, just wish they could make the step up.
110@ Bullscot:
Cheers mate, good to catch up again.
Ag slow me just spotted on replying to your comment you have changed your nick as well now to GPS, sounds like some kind of satellite for directions
106@ JFK,
Think Taylor had Ebersohn covered, but if he could have popped it up inn the tackle, but so they will learn! Exciting stuff though!
Canes back on attack, 5m out
@ Bullscot:What are your thoughts on Andy Robinson staying on?
Goosen having a off game.
