RECAP: Griquas v Cheetahs

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our coverage of the Currie Cup Round Seven encounter between Griquas and the Cheetahs in Kimberley.

ADVERTISEMENT

There may only be pride at stake when Griquas welcome the Cheetahs to Kimberley on Saturday, but this is expected to bring out the best in the teams in what could prove to be a gripping Currie Cup match-up.

Form may favour the Free Staters, who will enter the match with five victories in their 11 matches this season, but they will be careful to write off the home side, who have a favourable track record of three wins in four outings against them in the Currie Cup since 2017 – two of which were in Kimberley.
