Helloooooooooooo from the Coke-Tin…..

@ bos_otter:Damn fuken right!
Yellow card?
yes baby!!!!!!
TRYYYY Goosen, you beauty
TRYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOSEN!
Staat get the try.
Cheating Chiefs!
TRYYYYYY
Difficult conversion, but, bah! It’s The Goose after all!
Now for the conversion to get within 7…
bad kick….no worries Goosen…jy het jou deel gebring
Pity Goosen was put off there for that conversion.
Surely, Goosen should be allowed to re-take the conversion?
FFS! missed. Put off by the rush from the Chiefs. Staat ned a penalty…
Kommaan Staat!!
Staat with a last chance saloon here, hooter has gone
Cheetahs!!!…..go for the kill!!
Go for the poles boat – bonus point needed
Penalty on their own 10 metre line. Come on Goose!!
Damn! I wanted a win, but the Chiefs were good value! A bonus point will have to suffice! Respect Cheetahs!
ai man…..kon so maklik die ander kant toe gegaan het. FS is n bledie goeie span
Vrystaat moes meer aanvallend gespeel het van die begin af.
Yes!!! Amazing kick and the CTahs get a bonus losing point.
Goosen prbably still on top of points scored
Wow…. and my Bru is damn close…
Full Time, Cheetahs 33-39 Chiefs, Well done Chiefs, but well done Cheetahs too, they stuck in there. The Chiefs were just awesome on attack
What a game. Well done to both sides!
Well done Cheetahs. Good game and a huge pity Goosen never started. Made a huge difference coming on.
Still pick up the bonus point. Though would have loved them to beat the Chiefs.
Cheetahs to make some other teams sweat imo
Chiefs were too good for the Staat. Staat are a good exciting team but unfortunately not among the contenders this year.
