The Reds hosted the Cheetahs at Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane at 06:30 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA.
The Cheetahs played stupid rugby, letting the Reds run at them from all over and making a plethera of simple errors.

Helloooooooooooo
I need a medal for getting up this early and being on my post this early on a Saturday!
Goooooooooooooooo Cheetahs!
I picked the Reds on Bru though…. by 7
Game ON!
Penalty Reds and Surfer Dude lines up for posts…
Missed
Reds with all the early ball and attacking hard
Cheetahs absorbing a lot of pressure but the defence is spot-on so far….. not competing too well at the ground-ball by the Cheetahs, so far
Penalty Reds… very kickable.
Penalty should have gone the other way, for holding on
Surfer Dude misses again… justice!
VRYSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
Morning GBS!
Ah, penalty Cheetahs, Reds holding on. Long one
More GBS, nou gaan jy weer Aussie kommentaar op sy beste hoor. Alles wat Reds doen is goud en Cheetahs sal poo wees.
Sias Ebersohn slots it!
Cheetahs 3 / 0
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssss!

Morning fellas!
Try Digby Ioane, right next to the sticks
What about the ref getting in the way?
Reds 7 / 3 as Surfer Dude easily converts
Gou uit my lyf kry dan is dit history. Ek is soort van verlig dat my WB krieket suffering verby is, jammer chokers maar julle vou soos n kaartehuis.
Dan het iets daarna gebeur wat my weer hoop gee, die Blou Bulle het ontwaak.
Penalty Cheetahs, from the kick-off… offside
Sias misses the attempt to the right
Sias attempts a drop goal, it falls on the crossbar and just barely bumps away… missed
Try Rod Davies
Reds 14 / 3
Ek dog Sias is n hardlopende no 10, op is Cheetahs bang om die bal te hardloop. Reds lyk weer op hul beste. Vrystaat beter vinnig terugslaan, of hier kom n laaaang dag.
Penalty Cheetahs from the 1st scrum
Fukken ref in the way again.
Hierdie Reds is gevaarlik as hulle hardloop jong
I fear that the Cheetahs may be in for a [nother] hiding today.
