Bravo Cheetahs, another memorable victory for the perennial underdogs whose limited resources are plundered annually . John Kirwan was a magnificent rugby player, but as a coach, what a dismal track record . As an international coach with Italy & Japan I doubt whether he accumulated more than a handful of victories . Gotta wonder how long before Sir John is told to take a hike .

 Bob one thing we can learn from the Blues is how to off load. I have no idea why its such a mystery!!!
The Blues are a bit like the L ions. They lack composure. Squander chances.

Er Beeno, did you check the stats? 
Using Beeno logic the Blues won this game easily 
Well done boys, congrat to Cloudy.
I agree Kirwa n is a questionable coach. NZ Herald had an article saying the same thing.

 It was certainly RAW-ish Cloudy. Several calls need to be understood, e.g. the un-oppossed maul was fine last week but was penalized this week (the winning penalty). 
I always thought it was a risky tactic but we need to understand the refs ruling. He said the Blues moved backwards. I want to know more.

 You cant move backwards. You should have heard Mallet expalin the laws JW. That blues player should be red carded but then again wee mcaaaw was not being elbowed in the faxe(His was soooo mild - Greyling lent on him really). had he got the red he deserved you can subtract at  7 points from blues etc.  
Look the Blues should have won this match just like the Lions really should have thrashed the blowhard hurricanes. (Bulls should also have beaten the Hurricanes)But the Blues are so much like the Lions they squander chances like millionaires.
The Cheetahs of course have moments of brilliance and Sarel skinning the blues was a sight to behold!
