Hoe vêr gaan die Vrystaat passie strek, dit is die ope vraag!
Lions penalty well inside the Staat 22… they do not kick for posts to level up… they want tries!
Staat lineout, 5m from their own line
Lemoenetyd
2nd Half ON!
Jaco Kriel is a fearsome sight when he is in full flight, wow!!!
Staat defensive scrum penalty, deliberate wheeling of the scrum
Suppose the boeing is already over, so I’ll get a 1st doppie… I deserve one… hehehe
Soos Leeutjies vandag speel, het selfs die WP ‘n goeie kans om op Ellispark te wen.
Lions defensive penalty, 7m from their own line
39 @ Ben-die-Bul:
Emirates Airline Park!
Daar issie ‘n Ellispark op die oomblik nie!
Ek sien rugby365 hanna-hanna ook heeltyd oor Ellispark…. wel dis verkeerd!
Ons groot sponsors is wat ons game aan die gang hou, ek voel ons moet dit eerbiedig!
Tryyyyyy Lourens Erasmus, Golden Lions, under the sticks!
Baie beter game as gisteraand se getjommel, altwee spanne speel mooi hardlooprugby.
41: en Pretoria is Tswane ?
Golden Lions 20 / 16 FS Cheeaths
41 @ Ben-die-Bul:
Nee, Pretoria word nie gesponsor nie!
Tswane het GEEN naming rights gekoop nie…. maar Emirates Airline het WEL!
Try Gerhard Olivier, Staat!
FS Cheetahs 21 / 20 Golden Lions
Goeie drie deur die Staat.
Dink Pta se middestad alleen is Tswane, maar die hele dorp is Pretoria.
49 @ Ben-die-Bul:
Die Pretoria vs Tswane ding is ‘n politieke spel…
Die naam van die Golden Lions stadium, is verander in terme van ‘n goeie sponsorship kontrak…
Rayno Benjamin held up over the Lions line
The Free State Cheetahs are playing like their lives depend on this game…

Andersom. Die middestad is pretoria. Die grooter stad is tshwane
Tryyyyyyyyyyy Niel Marais…. Staaaat!
Donner, but the Staat are playing well today!
FS Cheetahs 28 / 20 Golden Lions
Nog ‘n goeie drie deur Staat, verdien eintlik die wen. Leeus teen die muur.
53: goed, so dit is eintlike Tswane en nie meer Pta nie.
Just turned the tv on – could the Cheetahs do the improbable?
Ek het geweet die lions gaan choke maar nie gedink die week al nie.
Afternoon all. A very exciting day in store for us.
