    Cheetahs scrums were woeful today, their defence was severely lacking allover the park, silly errors all over, Johan Goosen was woeful… EVERYTHING just went pear for the Cheetahs.

    It was like watching the Bulls and Stormers of the week before….

    Same with the Crusaders… they were aweful today!

    Luckily Kitchof does not play for the Cheetahs, if he smiled, all you would see is teeth.

    Pretty much done with work today, spent all morning from 5 doing a work report, went to site, came back and I forgot to save my work The-Incredible-Hulk … I’m over it for this week. Weary

    wat het tebeur, was uit vir ‘n meeting en toe ek terugkom sien ek hulle try soos my Stormers speel…
    Dis nou mos dom

    @ Wallabie.: Your words have a measure of truth, but really it was blatant today, lineout throws weren’t even nearly straight, and balls knocked backwards by Willie gets called a knock.

    The rule is clear, you can’t retaliate. Cook should have gotten a penalty for holding the player, but it can never be allowed to send a blatant uppercut in retaliation, that is just stupid, and for that knob Kafer to justify it, is really absurd!

    Rebels were too good toda, and I am not blaming the ref for the loss, that blame is squarely on their own shoulders, but the ref was poor!!

    @ Cheetah4eva:
    I do not need a chill pill my friend, you okes love to diss players from another team, but I see it is hard to take when there is a return of serve?? why am I not surprised??? Disapproval

    Oh boy so another 10 has a good game and he is also Better than Lambie?? Overjoy Overjoy

    You be a funny bloke, but here is a fact, Lambie is the top 10 in SA, whether the Bulls, Stormer, Cheetah Lions etc supporters want to admit it or not, just remember being a good 10 is not only about kicking.

    Like Naas said Lambie is our best option, I will take Naas’s advice Wink Happy-Grin Overjoy

    @ Cheetah4eva:
    I thought willie knock on was correct….not because the rebels are australian but more when willie tries to catch the ball to then when it lands on the ground. Willie makes it look backwards because he himself lands in front of the ball.
    But really i am splitting hairs as there was much more to the game that dictated the score. If the brumbies were on the losing end it is tempting to scrutinise the game more harshly.
    And there will be aspects where i will be vindicated.

    @ Sharks_forever: Lol, all in good fun. I don’t diss Lambie at all. He is a good player, and has as good a chance as establishing himself as the bok 10 as any. I grow weary of this petty Goosen and Lambie bashing! Let Goosen play himself back in form, without all this negative crap! I have had it all on Sharksworld with the stupid and petty “glassboy” stuff.

    The guy has barely three full matches after coming back from three serious injuries. So yeah, chill and cut the kid some slack.
