RECAP: Cheetahs v Western Province
READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the Currie Cup Round Six encounter between the Cheetahs and Western Province in Bloemfontein.
With cancelled matches being the main feature of this season’s Currie Cup tournament, Cheetahs head coach Hawies Fourie is not paying too much attention to the current standings.
The Cheetahs will face Western Province in Bloemfontein and the home side will almost certainly need a win to stay in touch with the teams above them in the standings.
