Saders 31 / 6
omg what poor play from the cheetahs
My prediction was Saders by 40…. it’s still well on
Try Saders…. Ben Franks
Saders 38 / 6
Fark, Saders get a turn-over….. pffffrrrrtttttttt
Cheetahs have not enough patience when on attack… they turn the ball over at that last crucial hurdle, every time.
Saders now building on attack again
Try Guildford, next to sticks
Saders 45 / 6
87 – Sharky, Enjoy it. I will just relax and enjoy it from here. Think there will be more Sharks Supporters at Ellis Park. See many, many up at the shops near me wearing their black and white when I went for the papers this morning. Just scream extra loud for me too….hehehe
Saint, hoop jy’t gesien superBul het bestig ons altwee stem saam julle het die perfekte game gespeel. Ons is dalk net so ‘n bietjie bevrees dit is dalk te vroeg om te piek.
My Bru margin is now almost spot on, but alas there is 8 minutes left
Cheetahs maul over the line… TMO
I don’t see how this could be given as a try.
Have all the wins this week but my margins have been way, way out.
The call should be “Held Up, scrum 5″…..
Scrum 5… as I expected
Cheetahs take their scum but they go nowhere… again scrum 5
Knock from the Staat… well I suppose that is good for my Bru
2 min left
less than a minute left, Saders scrum
why do the cheetahs always go flat when playing the over seas teams??
only one little player showed guts , thats pretorius
that again was a thumping
Game over
Final score Saders 45 / 6
Let’s move to the Bulls thread
As much as I dislike the Tjietas continuous losing streak, one has to add that this refereee was one of the worst on display thus far this season.
Saders got away with murder at the breakdown and even worse is this ref will be getting away with it because the head of sanzar referees is a kiwi.
Antipodean referees really has been hard at work to kill the S14 as a competition and turned it into a coin flip.
114 – Sharky, Cheetahs have too many injured players out and also Juan not there. That makes a huge difference to their team. They were competitive at the start with those players there. Without them they just wont play well at all.
