Played out at Absa Park in Kimberley, the result saw the Cheetahs, playing in their first year of the competition, finish 10th on the ladder, while the defeat consigned the Cats to 13th place. The Cats made the stronger start on the hard Kimberley field with tries to fullback Conrad Jantjes and wing Wylie Human in the opening 30 minutes. However, the struggling side lost its concentration and a number of wayward penalties saw them fail to capitalise on a heavily weighted possession count. The Cats' inability to turn possession into points allowed the clinical Cheetahs to wrestle their way back into the contest, despite having both prop Jannie du Plessis and Willem de Waal yellow carded. It took the Cheetahs a while, but when they finally started to hold the ball through a number of phases and eliminate the errors, their first try was not long in coming and centre Ronnie Cooke crossed the line in the 56th on the back of some good build-up work by Bevin Fortuin and Gaffie du Toit. This signalled a change in momentum as Meyer Bosman, who had replaced De Waal, got the Cheetahs on the front foot and also pegged back the Cat's lead to 23-20 after slotting two penalty goals. The game was poised for a nerve-racking finish and it was the Cheetahs who produced the big play when Eddie Fredericks brilliantly set up a try for Kabamba Floors who was able to skid in at the corner to give his side the lead. When Bosman missed the conversion the score was 25-23 to the Cheetahs and the home-side sealed the victory shortly after when Bosman landed a fine penalty late in the contest from just inside his own half. Cheetahs 28 Tries: Cooke, Floors Penalties: Bosman 3, De Waal 2, Du Toit Cats 23 Tries: Jantjes, Human Conversions: Pretorius 2 Penalties: Pretorius 3 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 60.240.49.120
