Was Ebersohn’s foot not in touch running down the line?
Os gaan nie gelukkig wees met daardie skrum nie.
What happened to the Staat scrum???
Smash them Staat!!!
Penalty going the Chiefs way, but again, Chiefs, like the other NZ teams totally disregarding the gate, and refs don’t seem to care
Chiefs defense showing their quality… one of the best in the comp.
Staat scrum really struggling at the moment
Dam, Staat scrum being totally annihilated.
@ The_Young_Turk:
engaging slightly to late each time
agh ffs
Try time, Chiefs – under the posts
Very poor defence by Cheetahs there.
Come on Cheets.
Fuck! Tackle! It’s not that facking hard!
Staat defense crap there
toemaar manne, chiefs begin altyd goed maar toer nie goed in SA nie, dink maar aan die 2009 finaal ! 😉
Too easy for the Chiefs. Dit lyk nie goed nie manne
3-10 after Cruden slots it
Another attempt by Ebersohn, over, 6-10
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
Why is A Strauss not at hooker?
Kom Ctahs, kry die verdediging en skrums op standaard.
6-10…..Cheetahs RULE!! almost 🙂
CTahs are going to have to dig deep, very deep!
oh flok! Now a Chiefs scrum right on the Staat line…
Lucky, lucky the Chiefs knock on.
Now another scrum, but the CTahs put in, not any better.
Chiefs ruffling the Cheetahs feathers. Staat need to just settle down, get their composure back, and get their defensive system back on par again. Don’t play into the Chiefs hands, boys
79: hy werk op die hoeke vanaand.
Chiefs lyk baie goed, goeie span hierdie jaar, dink hulle is beter as Saders.
Staat lucky to get a free kick at the scrum.
Nice one Cheets. Getting the better of the Chiefs scrum there finally.
