Can these Cheetahs dine on steak?
31 May 13 11:30 by Andre Liebenberg (King Shark) | 13 Comments
Since the Cheetahs joined Super Rugby in 2006, they have not managed to beat the Bulls in this competition. They came close in 2013 with a four point margin, in 2011 with a two point margin, and in 2007 with another four point margin. They have also been hammered on a number of occasions, such as the 40 point beat down in 2008 and the 32 point flaying in 2012. [...]

Cheetahs keep their play off dreams alive

The Southern Kings and Vodacom Cheetahs met in Port Elizabeth in front of an average 22 026 spectators for their return match after the Cheetahs won the first one comfortable in Bloemfontein a few weeks earlier. The game started very slowly with both teams testing each other’s defence, with the Cheetahs doing more of the attacking. The Kings did more with their points scoring opportunities and were leading up until the final minute of the first half. [...]

It was no surprise that the Cheetahs won the first game played in Bloemfontein, but something that might have come as a surprise is the fact that no bonus points were scored in that game, especially considering the way the Cheetahs have been playing.
