Staat scrum penalty… and we have handbags thrown on the ground
Ref asks the TMO to check for foul play
Lions scrum getting caught out…but only just
I see no clear punches… just some shoving I think
Franco Mostert might get penalized for getting involved… only a penalty and no card.
Acceptable
Eish contact with the face…
Yep, that is the ruling… Staat penalty… kicked out just outside the Lions 22
Nah man, we need SOME argie bargy in rugby, otherwise it becomes just another game.
Rugby is physical and should remain so
Go Joe!!!!!!
Joe Pietersen Drop Goal… over.
Staat takes the lead!
Cheetahs 10 / 7 Lions
Mosterd so lucky. His fingers were milimeters away from a red card and a few weeks off
Jantjies kicks the kick-off too deep and it goes dead, scrum middle spot for the Staat.
Lions need the 10 minute break very badly. Ackers is going to burst a couple of blood vessels in the changing rooms, I fear
Fark, into the scrum so skew by Super Sareltjie, not picked up!!
Lions should still chase the tbpoint:D
I went for the cheeters
Great second 20 minutes by Cheetahs. Going to make for an exciting 2nd half
Nothing in this game so far, all evenly matched.
Pietersen with another Drop Goal attempt, this one missed.

@ grootblousmile:
Hy moet skeef ingooi anders gaan die cheetahs nooit die bal uit smdie scrum kry nie al knock die lions tien keer
Jan Serfontein is OUT of the Stormers / Bulls game… injured.
Eish
Wat drink ons?

Hy is flippen goed, Franco…die soort ou wat ons teen die All Blacks nodig het, hy speek 99 minute voluit, nes Brodie Retallick. Franco vanjaar imo beter as Etzebeth.
2nd Half ON!
Play to the whistle, eish
Try Ruan Combrinck, Lions!
Mapoe through a half-gap, passes… and Combrinck does the rest
Lions 14 / 10 Cheetahs
Thats better
Ahhhhhh, a carbon copy of the last one!
Now the inverse happens… Combrinck through a half-gap, he passes to Mapoe and he goes on to score.
Lions 21 / 10 Cheetahs
Maks van Dyk off injured, Willie du Plessis also off subbed.
14 points in 4 minutes by the Lions… wow!
