Marius making up for his booboo last week…Cheetah’s paying the price
Yup, but Delaney pushes the attempt wide
22 @ beanie,
Well glad to mingle with you here on the blog. Good win in the tub, for your team. You concerened by the Stormpoppies lack of bonus points?
C’mon Cheetahs, you’re giving away too many kickable penalties for silly mistakes
Delaney slots that penalty
10/6
kiwi’s sukkel al klaa om asem te haal 🙂
Lol, Highlanders prop gasping for breath already. Cheetahs must just keep running at the clan, at let them tire. Don’t listen to “fruitcake Nkumane”
Wants the Cheetahs to kick? Sacriledge I tell you.
@ Cheetah4eva:Lack of bonus points will come back to bite them no doubt, but we will see how it goes
The sheep shaggers starting to use the services of the poms (Haskell). Never thought I’d see the day when they lowered themselves so!!
Why oh why do we have to lisren to the droning of Nkumane & co? Isn’t there a Bill Mc Laren out there somewhere?
@ Cheetah4eva:If the Cheetahs start kicking, it’ll ruin their game plan!!!!!
@ Just For Kicks:lol
The Goose strikes again! Schweeeetly through the sticks
Well said Marius
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT! Just back from the Golden Oldies and Vodacom Cup game ar Durbanville Rugby Club.
The Farce were pushing the lying on the wrong side this morning as well, and Peyper fell for it. Good on Jonker
41 @ JFK,
Agreed, but Nkumane was a Lion by default, so he wouldn’t know much about attacking rugga
Yellow for the Whore!
Goosen with a drop, but just wide. Penalty given. Yellow card given to Hore. Was only a matter of time, I suppose
He he Jonker making amends for his boo boo. Not that the Cheetahs need the help right now. They are playing well controlled attacking rugga.
Go Goose
48 @ Loosehead,
Howdy Loskoppie, no man, lol, apologise for being ugly to ladies of leisure. Hore is way to fugly to be fair.
How are you?
Vrystaat moet nou toeslaan, kanse gebruik.
I’m really enjoying this Cheetahs style of play at the moment, really makes for enjoyable viewing
@ Cheetah4eva:What are your handbags made from in Bloem? Crocodile leather?
Haskell won’t be playing for a couple of weeks then
nr.25 van die Drakie span uit vir 8 weke.
Great, they’ve spotted it, Yellow card for Haskell
And that was after a red was recommended
