Eish mate i love the Cheetahs if they run like this with the ball, we used to have the WP doing it, this should have been a much easier win though.

Whats up with the Waratwats, 3 more points would have been useless anyway , they are long gone anyway

“we used to have the WP doing it”

201@ bos_otter:I certainly didn’t mean great work for the match!!!! Just for keeping them out at the end there.

My Bru has been so bad, if it’s anything to go by, the Stormers are in for a hiding!!!!!!
