I made myself a nice cup of coffee…. so let’s Goooooooooo Cheetahs!
Rebels immediately hot on attack…
Penalty rebels, not rolling away
Cheetahs 20 / 13 Rebels
Straight on attack, Rebels
Rebels on the charge here, Cipriani already making his presence felt
Saved by Brussouw.
Cheetahs gets the scrum though, a very defensive one, just in front of their sticks
Cheetahs se kick en chase nie akkuraat genoeg nie. Gee rebels heetemal te veel spasie.
Interesting, Brussouw packing down at 8
Brussow steals another one
75 @ Loosehead:
He often does that
Tell you what, the Rebels are playing well
Try James O’Connor, under the sticks
Easy try to JOC?
Cheetahs 20 / 20 Rebels
80 @ Loosehead:
He MUST be Justin Bieber’s boetie… hehehe
Oh dear, sleeping pills handed out to Cheetahs again instead of vitamin pills
Goosen going for poles from 50m
Long range penalty for Goosen
Short
Fukc, the Cheetahs are falling apart.
Ciao a tutti! Hope the Cheatahs didn’t make me get up early for nothing! Moer hulle stukkend Cheatahs!
Offside by the Rebels… Goosen to go for goal
