Damn just such a easy try for Chiefs. Focuse damn it Cheetahs you allowing the Chiefs back like Bulls did last week.
Cheetahs 37 / 22 Chiefs
Get straight into their faces again Cheetahs put the pressure back on.
Hier kom ‘n ding…
Try Asaeli Tikoirotuma, Chiefs
Its the comeback Chiefs, thats for sure!
8 point game…
Cheetahs 37 / 29 Chiefs
@ grootblousmile:
Thx.
Cheetahs have a game on their hands now, all of a sudden!
This could also be a close one… three in a row…
14 Minutes to go… the deficit is 8 points.
Canes penalty and Cruden goes for goal
Cruden misses… it was vital!
Cruden’s kick was voer voer… Hehehe
Cheetahs have stopped playing and just trying to defend their lead… Not a good idea…
@ Blue Bird:
All the best for The 11th of May. You will do well.
Nice catching up again. Keep well Carol.
Chiefs look very confident, just going about their business as if the score doesn’t bother them and the final result is a foregone conclusion.

The NZ teams are just so much fitter than our teams, even the AB’s are much fitter than the Boks
Another Chiefs try… eish
Tikoirotuma in again
Cheetahs could lose this one, if they don’t make the step up. They look shattered though
4 try bonus point. Game of two halves. Eish Cheetahs let this game go it was theirs to win… 🙄
Hkgk! Terrific skills by the champions.
Cheetahs 37 / 36 Chiefs
@ nortierd:
So much for the altitude…
Cheetahs penalty, very kickable… easy in fact
They tend to peak at the right time… some other team may have peaked too soon…
