[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 100130"] The Cheetahs line-up remains Rassie`s closely-guarded secret at this stage. This looks to be another hard-fought, forward-dominated, typical SA derby match, with the outcome more than likely determined by the various place-kickers. Although I have a soft spot for the Cheetahs, and I really rate them this year, I reckon they`ll come up just short of the mark on this one. The Bulls will have the Loftus crowd to lift them, they`ll konw full well that losing 2 in a row in Bokland will put paid to their chances, and they won`t want to relinquish bragging rights over their current closest rivals in Bokland. The Cheetahs have unpredictability on their side- at full strength, they can mix it with the strongest packs in the competition, yet also throw caution to the wind and the ball to the wings. In Floors and V D Merwe, they have 2 of the fastest back rows on show, and can play all types of rugby, depending on the opposition. Should be pretty close, with home-ground advantage, and greater desperation, being the Bulls` greatest allies. [/QUOTE]
