Tighthead… try Phillip van der Walt!
@ grootblousmile:
Have to agree with you Smiles, Rhule has been a big disappointment this season. Basson clearly the best now.
Nice one Cheetahs.
Bravo Staat!
Cheetahs 13 / 7 Blues
The Staat just need at least 2 points from this match to go through to the play offs, otherwise their fate will be in the hands of others.
