Not really, there was already 45-3 at half time!

Must have been a good team talk at half time.

Not great for Super Rugby is it to be honest. I'll watch it later, but that's almost a new record.

Strange result given how close they have come to beating some good teams earlier on in the competition.

I have a nervous disposition so I'm not sure that I'll try to find the highlights.

Not great for the whole Super Rugby jamboree, having results like that.

they shipped four tries in barely more minutes than that just after they took a 3-0 lead. They seemed to give up afte rthe second of those.

Pardon my ignorance but as I watching the highlights I noticed that the Cheetahs were playing with a few more black south African players than I expected. In the back row as well where the Boer's usually dominate through being unbelievable specimens. These players looked pretty good too. I think that bodes well for SA. No need for quota's just pick on form, those guys were surely putting their hands up.

This is true and the Cheetahs have been playing some scintillating rugby this season. I rate very much their coach, Franco Smith, the man who is responsible for Treviso finishing as high as 7th in the pro 12. Lions have been a pleasant surprise as well.
