Cheetahs outclass Rebels
Bloemfontein - The Cheetahs secured their fourth consecutive Super Rugby victory by beating the Rebels 34-16 in at the Free State Stadium on Saturday.

Their four win on the trot is a new record for the Cheetahs franchise in Super Rugby.

Five tries, well done indeed! They're the surprise team of the season no doubt! Good on them.

Rebels played like the force did last year, aimless, too many kicks and too narrow, lots of cough-ups and gave up after the third try against them. If we dont put them to the sword if they play like that then im burning all my force gear and becoming a cheetahs supporter ;)

With you there Zims. I'll have to get all my old Sharks gear out. Maybe not it probably won't fit!
