The Cheetahs played so well in the first half showing glimpses of what they delivered last year only to fall back into being useless and taking their foot off the pedal. Very disappointing display after beating the Chiefs at their own game.

 

 

The Bulls are just so frustrating to watch.......they play it far to conservatively when they have the ammunition to play a more varied game. Yes they should stick to their strengths, but they also need to use their impressive centres. Yet another game goes by with the centres and wings seeing little ball. There is no attempt to create space out wide......everything is played short and in traffic.

 

 

The Lions played well for the lack of class they have......the score line was very flattering to the Saders

 

 

The Stormers are just pathetic.......there is no passion or direction. Grant has been awful since his return. He kicks away far too much good possession. There season was summed up by Cat kicking the ball away when they had 10 plus points to make up with 10 min to play.......they are an insult this year and what is more insulting is that Coetzee gets to keep his job.

 

 

Poor showing by the SA sides this weekend

No coincidence that SA's worst weekend of the season is the same weekend that the Sharks have a bye.

 I have no real problem with the Cheetahs - they did not lift the foot off the peddle up front as alleged above.  Drotsky made a mistake by bringing on Mnisi - who cost the Cheetahs dearly. The backline defence went down by 90% - that is a fact,

Not sure how you can say the Lions played well ... then again you keep on speaking of an impressive Bulls center pair which we both know isn't quite true ... so no surprise there.

The Lions were awful.

We lost the match at the breakdown, giving too many turnovers away and our line out put-in could not have been any worse.

Boshoff tried to pass the ball in the tackle once too often which backfired badly and then we seem to give up in the last 10, letting in two soft tries.

We deserved the thumping we got.

Now we face the Sharks.

Might have been but there's good information here...the Chiefs are the side to beat...pure talent and the ability to come back in the dying moments...don't know why they do it the hard way...anyway, I don't know of any side including the Sharks, that have this skill, this fitness and heart to do this.


Yes, they were caught napping against the Cheetahs (probably because the Canes made mince-meat of them)...so it goes and even the best fail sometimes or lapse into this attitude. The Sharks of the past were the most guilty but JW seems to have fixed this...yes, the Sharks had a bye but they were warned...the Chiefs are the one's to beat.


Although they don't meet they no doubt cross swords in the knockout or finals...that you can bet your last dollar on it!
