In news just in the Cheetahs have managed to hold onto two of their most promising players. Sias and Robert Ebersohn have each signed a new contract with the Bloemfontein outfit.
According to a tweet by Robert they have signed ‘for a couple of seasons’ and seem really pleased to remain with Cheetahs.
His tweet:

Me and Sias just signed our new contracts with Cheetahs! staying in the city of roses for another couple of seasons!

Exciting times for the Cheetahs, I’m very happy for them.
Good news for the Cheethas
Are the boys still happy with 5grand a month? 😆
@Ben (Comment 3) : is that each, or between them? 🙂
Me and Sammy are happy for them and for their fans.
@robdylan (Comment 4) : Your guess is as good as mine! 🙂
Good news for the Cheetahs!
@Beet i have very good news for you about sean robinson linked to the sharks this time i am not talking rubbish this time watch this space do not be surprised if janco gunther also signs for the sharks!
Good for them. As much as I like the duo, one would have been wasted here with Super Pat.
@Megatron (Comment 9) : Sias plays 10 and Robert plays 13? Unless you wanted to put Sias at 12?
@Ben (Comment 11) : quite right, and basically interchange with lambie running teams ragged.
Good for the Cheetahs, and I’m happy we didn’t get them either. But – Jamal? Really???
Ben – don’t let logic get in the way of a good ole argument. 😆
@Megatron (Comment 12) : I agree. Lambie at 10, Sias at 12 and Robert at 13 could cause some havoc. Would really have liked to see it.
@Big Fish (Comment 13) : I love a good ole argument. But don’t feel like it today. 😆
@Muzi (Comment 8) : a bit of background on the players? they played for waterkloof this year? where did you hear the rumours?
@Big Fish (Comment 13) :
Welcome back homes. We need to chat about the CT get together!!
Will catch you on bbm tonight?? 😉
good for them. I like them but I cannot really say that they are that exceptional, besides I am still sulking from our recent Bloem acquisitions (especially the one that come via bulls 😈
@rekinek (Comment 18) : don’t worry about that one, worry about the one falling of tackles like he is being paid to 🙂
Hahaha @ Megatron! 😈
@Megatron (Comment 19) : you’re right if i’m lucky that one want even come on
but this one 🙄 🙄
@Ben (Comment 3) : 😆 life in bloem not that expensive if they were to come to joburg on the other hand they would really need few more
Hey Weasel. Not yet home: leaving tomorrow morning, so will be in CT around 5pm.
Look gforward to hearing about a get-together.
