Whats the point of having touch judges if you’re not going to take their recommendations?
Downey replaced by Ashley for blood
@ Just For Kicks:
he’s making ammends for his farkup last week mate….playing the crowd
Ahsley vir president!!!
Get in front now Cats while they are 2 men down
Jonker you BLOODY IDIOT. The AR ref said RED NOT DAMN YELLOW. Bloody hell, Jonker is a useless ref.
C’mon Cheetahs
61 @ JFK,
Agreed! Clear red, but we will take the yellow. Our handbags are made from recycled corn cobs!
66@ Puma:Glad I’m not the only one that heard it!!! Ridiculous
Go Cheetahs take em to the cleaners now. Only 13 men on for Landers and it should have been only 14 for the duration of this match but Jonker just decided not to listen to his AR. 🙄
Cheetahs need to take a 7 pointer from this
Kiwi’s dragging it out
Tryyyyyyy Ferrera
Yessss!
Try Ferreira! Cheetahs are cooking with erm….. GAS!
69@ Just For Kicks:
It was loud and clear, but that idiot Jonker changed it from Red that the AR said to a yellow. Jonker should be dropped for a few games after his mistake useless reffing last week and AGAIN this week.
Very handy lead, as we get to the break
Nice one Cheets.
Goosen slots the conversion
23/3
Drie vir Ferrari. Goeie seun, kom van die Bulle af.
77@ Cheetah4eva:
Yes a good lead this.
Really enjoying watching your Cheetahs play this year buddy. They a very good side.
Eish! Jonker is a Plonker!
76@ Puma:Agree, whats the point of the white card, the touchie clearly saw the infringement. Haskell will still get a few weeks, white or not.
As GBS isn’t driving, I’ll say ORANGE TIME!
MJ jaag nou kuk aan man….hoekom penaliseer hy die Cheetah’s vir daai scrum?
Delaney gets a penalty on the whistle.
Half time
23/9 Cheetahs
81 @ Puma,
Much obliged Puma, how are you doing! Cheetahs must, and can get a 5 pointer out of this match, that will march them up the log, a tad
83@ Just For Kicks:
Hope so, cause that thug Masaga from the Chiefs got bloody nothing for his shoulder charge into Mvovo last week. Bunch of thugs some of these kiwi players. Though that player is from England that punched.
87@ Cheetah4eva:
I am doing well mate and hope you are too.
Yip Cheets will get the 5 points. They playing well here. I should have had them by 15 on bru. Still have them for a win though..lol.
The boys must come out and get a couple more tries for the bonus point. Cheetahs need to drive it home now.
