Try stands, no forward pass
What a lekker game to watch…..defense not high on the list of priorities, but attack is certainly up there.
Can the Cheetahs steal this one?
Should little Joe slot this, it will be a 3-point game!
Missed.
Lions 34 / 29 Cheetahs
152 @ nortie:Yeah, real spectator rugby, what we’ve been craving for many a year!
Lions should eek out the win now… 1 minute to go
Here we go, great stuff from the Cheetahs
Cheetahs penalty, on their own 10m line… time is up so they tap and go
Jeez, Sadie just needed to offload there
Turnover, Marnitz Boshoff pops it out.
Game over
Very good game
Wow, great game, well done both sides, both deserved victory in the end. Again GREAAAAAT Game!
Final Score: Emirates Lions (7) 34 / 29 (10) Toyota Cheetahs
Somehow I feel the next one is going to be a serious anti-climatic skop and donder muscle fest and not a lot else – I hope I am wrong
Bloody good game… but in my opinion the Lions are lucky, they did not play the right game against the Cheetahs.
Cheetahs love nothing better than a loose, open game.
Gret rugby though!
Best possible result for SA rugby – 7 log points earned

4 @ Pietman:
Have never been there Pietman but with this game coming up had an online search of Galway and it looks like a lovely place, will have to go to Ireland one day.
9 @ Puma:
Hi Puma good to see you about here, sorry though to read of your knee hassles hope it eases off soon. I have been to Nairn a few times, more accurately been through it as it is on the road from here to Inverness. Did stop and look about a bit once it is a nice enough little place has a nice beach and have heard a good golf course. It has beautiful scenery round about it with amazing countryside and not too far away from various Whiskey places.
