GBS I am awake for this game if you want to lie in smell your farts lingering.
@Loosehead
Julle agterlyn lyk beter die week, maar daar is iets nie lekker met die ouens nie en die Hurricanes dink ek gegaan speel vir hulle afrigter se oorlewing.
Ek dink tog die Cheetahs gaan dit dalk sneak

You know I think that this is a match that we can win. Play percentage rugby, take them ln up front and then unleash the backline.
I live in hope.
You can definitely win, but they will have to shore up the defense. The Canes will try and play high tempo try scoring rugby, so it’s 2 similar styles, but they must not kick into their hands and then miss tackles.
Sterkte, vir my SuperBru sal ek maar hoop die Hurricanes wen net net, maar nothing personal, net eerlik
Morning Cheetah and Hurricane supporters, and neutrals who like a running game.
These 2 teams usually serve up a good old ding dong high scoring game with lots of tries.
Morning Norty,
i will watch a little bit, must prepare for the weekends task. I have a team of workers at a garden that was almost washed away in the Olifants river. I have to leave at 7 so i certainly wont see the end. Lets hope the Cheetahs knock back anothe NZ team.

It’s amazing that half of Gautend didn’t wash away.
It felt weird yesterday morning not waking up to rain.
Too much is not a good thing, lots of damage. This morning very misty here, but at least it’s dry.
Cheetahs can take this, they need to wait for their moments and not go helter skelter
Morning all.
Ok, so yesterday I started with Jaco Taute.
Let me kick off with Goose today, another schoolboy wonder who sill hasn’t established himself in the big league of flyhalves like Lambie did.
Will he come to the fore today?
Because he, Lambie, Francois Steyn, Morne Steyn and Marnitz Boshoff are our only choices for WC 2015, it seems. The likes of Catrakillis, Pollard and Jantjies are clearly out of sorts when they have to step up from Currie Cup level into the international arena.
So,my eyes will be on Goose today, hope he can stay on for 80 minutes (for a change). And he has to quit missing those sitters!
Morning Pietman
True, and Willie must pick his moments, he gets predictable when he tries some magic every time he gets the ball.
I agree about the Goose, like Arno and PSdT we have HEARD more about their virtues and how good they are going to become more than we have SEEN it.
I get slightly irritated when people already rate them higher than a Victor or Morne who have been there, done it and got the t-shirt.
They still need to go through at least a full season without breaking down before I will be convinced
Helllloooooooooooo
Pity Perenara isn’t starting against Super Sarel.
Cheetahs have so many game breakers in that backline, if only they can get onto the same wavelength, and make opportunities for each other, they will be devastating.
@ Pietman:
More Pietman.
Lekker more hier in Hoedspruit, kom nou net van buite, die dae word nou vinnig korter hier. Hiedie tyd in januarie het die son al hoog gesit. Die son het nou so mooi more gloed gegooi. Pragtige tyd van die dag, ek staan gewoonlik op voor die son opkom, jy kan amper se ek is n son aanbider, nee joke net. Dit is regtig n mooi tyd.

Good early pressure by the Staat!
VRYSTAAAAAT!
Slow internet here.
Oi vei, try Dane Coles, Canes!
Lovely try Canes
Against the run of play in a way, but boy, give them an inch……
Great SA move run riot and then kick it, and straight in their hands. Brilliant Cheetahs , brilliant
Did I wake up early for this?
@ superBul:
More jy daar doer in die Bosveld! Al wanneer daai mooi plek van jou sien is as ek afkyk wanneer ek landin vlieg…nie lekker gevoel nie. Jy moet dit geniet broer.
Hurricanes 7 / 0 Cheetahs

Give credit where it’s due, these Kiwis are masters of the quick passes, and it’s their forwards.
I wish we can learn that skill
