    …..and it turns into a bit of a rout. Well played Saders, and a very good effort by the Cheetahs

    Het ‘n SA span al ooit oorsee ‘n 50 tal gekry? Dink Stormers het dit dalk eenkeer reggekry iewers in 2004 of 5?

    Ons rugby is ver agter NZ. Fiksheid, balvaardighede, verdediging en wat nog alles nie goed in SA nie.
