Why on earth have so many of you picked the Cheetahs 😯
SB is played with the mind not the heart 😉
Yes KSA…
And the mind says the changes to the Cheetahs side and the standard of their last few games….
So yes…the mind says this is the Cheetahs game…
😆
Either way i can’t see the game. 🙁
ok – so is this kicking off soon?
well there is no daylight saving in SA so my time should be right. 😉
now why can’t I find this game live on KuduClub?
cnuts aren’t showing it live. I wonder why not
oh well, that’s just tough shert. Definitely not going to buy this one on MediaZone.
Go Reds! I mean Cheetahs
is dit miskien lewendig op RSG?
Ja, inderdaad!
Rory Duncan has scored a try! It’s 7-0
50th Super cap for Eddie Fredericks! Well done old man!
you know, I’m not actually bored enough (or interested enough) that I’m actually going to listen to this ENTIRE MATCH in bone. I’ll catch you guys later.
try to Meyer Bosman
Two good tries…
But this is not the first time we have seen this from the Cheetahs hey!?!??
Hopefully bringing Juan on in the second half will be the change in that…
Game looking like the most entertaining of the weekend thus far!?!??
Tewis plays better than Oelshig…
Balls by the coach…but a good gamble…
The Reds breaking the line often though…
But the Cheetahs are scrambling better than I have seen them all season…
But first line defence is less of a gamble…
General time duration of games this weekend are low…!?!?
That a plan or coincidence….
What happened to JW Jonker…he is like breaking tackles at will….
Ai…almost a 3rd….
Hope they keep this up…
Cheetahs looking real good with ball in hand….
Drop Goal JLP…..
Cheetahs 17 – 0 Reds
Knockon from the restart….
Cheetahs Putting themselves under unnecessary pressure….
Lathem off???
Good news for the Cheetahs….
😯 Seems like my mind got this one wrong.
Reds penalty for Cheetahs playing a player in the air (lineout jumper)….
Reds go for touch….
Get lineout and get another penalty (playing ball in the ruck…
Reds go and go and go….
Then 3or 4 good tackles by the Cheetahs and then turn over the ball…
Free kick Cheetahs….Reds holding on…
Cheetahs kick for touch…
Win lineout against throw but knock on…
Told you KSA…
Now the Cheetahs have led like this before…
But I think Juan in the 2nd and no Latham in the 2nd will work in favour of the Cheethas…
Thanks for the commentary Hmmm
keep it coming
And KSA….have you watched games the Reds and Cheetahs played this year???
You mind was working from incorrect info…
Will be great if the Cheetahs get 5 from this….
Cheetahs moving close to a card…
Been warned 3 times already….
Incorrect entry…playing the ball in the ruck (in red area)….clearing ruck with shoulder…
Ref said he is SICK of the continues infringements….
Reds lineout not looking good…
Reds looking good with ball in hand…few half breaks but getting over the advantage line…
Good suffocating defence from the Cheetahs and the Reds knock on…
Scrum brought down by Reds player Greg Holms…
Penalty Cheetahs….
Great kick JLP….
JLP is kicking real good…
Punting….chipping…and placing…
Cheetahs scrum looking real good…
Going forward on their and the Reds put-in…
Ref talking to Reds front row again….
They not looking good against the Cheethas…
Ball goes to Meyer Bosman from the scrum and he makes a half break and gets ¾ mneters over the advantage line…
JLP goes for his 2nd drop and this one from his half…
Missed by not tooo far…
Cheetahs have a good mix in taking it up and kicking…
And they kicking well…Tewis…JLP…Bosman and Fullback…
3 min to half time….
Ref talking to Reds front row again….
And warned them for bringing srcom down….
Cheetahs must prevent the Reds from scoring in this half…
Mental advantage going into the 2nd…
Cheetahs strong on the ground….
Had most of the ball and still t/o 5 times already….
Seems Latham pulled out after he saw the onslaught…..LoL
Reds no 5 seems to have had a knock on the head…
Donno what happened but he don’t look all there….
Continuing though…
Reds have the lineout 10 meters outside Cheetahs 22…..
Seconds left…
There goes half time whistle….after a knock by Reds 10….
Half time score…
Cheetahs 17 – 0 Reds
Even the Cheetahs can’t cock up such a big lead in the second half surely.
45min
Try – The Cheetahs move the ball wide to the right. Vermeulen gets the ball at full pace, beats two tackles and goes over in the corner
24-0 Cheetahs
46min
55min

62min
Yellow Card – Van der Linde is sent off for an overly robust ruck clean.
67min
Try – The Reds tap a penalty and send it right. Fetoai gets on the touchline, steps inside two tackles and scores his second.
24-14 Cheetahs
68min
this still on?
yes
The Cheethas definately secured their first victory for the season…
The question is will they get 5 points out of this game…
Cheetahs murdering the Reds in the scrum…but a lil over eager this time and got penalised…
Excellent punt down field …lineout Reds….
Reds break the line of defence a few times and with two players open and the tryline within reach knock on
Reds not making the right choices….
Barnes chip…chip was poor (too deep) and the Reds loose possession….
Reds lose t/o at lineout…
Ball goes to Bosman who grubbers…
Reds 11 unable to control…
Jonker kicks through, picks up and has too much pace for the Reds wing….
Score in the corner….
okay off to bed for me.
night guys
Conversion missed….
Whistle straight after whistle….
Final score
Cheetahs 29 – 14 Reds
So that answers the question….
Cheetahs after several attempts and silly turnovers….score the bonus point try at the death…
Ok…
I have friends waiting…see you guys another time….
KSA
I think you need to do an investigation on PJLD
I am sure he somehow has access to the picks I make….
He makes the same winning pick and far too often very similar if not exact points dif….
When I score 1.5 on SB PJLD scores 1…
When I score 9 PJLD scores 9.5
Something is not gelling here…
guess not. A KAK weekend on SB
Your log is worng….
The sucky LIONS should be in last place….
I only got the LIONS and the Brumbies wrong….
wow – one win and the Cheetahs are suddenly up in 10th
Can you believe I picked the LIONS
fattmann, take a bow
I can’t believe all my other picks were wrong… I think it was a weekend of upsets.
And robd….they yet not to get e bonus point in a game….
Robd….
You still have an advert Lions vs Reds on your stats page…top middle….
Bloody Wildebeest managed to lose AGAIN in Brakpan 😡
I just show whatever the advertisers show me, dude… I have no control over them being out of date.
Ok I really got to go….
Late again….
Robd…they just never seem to be able to win there….
ok, but I’m outta here anyway. Gotta go to Sainsburys
it’s a kak place to go play rugby, that’s for sure
Well they must have though that was a great game then…
LoL
LoL
And to watch rugby too….
