[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 375132, member: 39190"] They should probably finish around position 12/13, yeah. A lot of that I would say is because of a horrible draw; missing out on the Force and Chiefs both of which would have been games they would have targeted as games they could win. They are still capable of beating anyone at Bloemfontein though and will win a few games. They have made a bit of a habit of beating the big teams; having beaten the Stormers(WP in CC rather), Sharks and Crusaders in recent years. They have a great pack and if Brussow is back after the first few games they should be more competitive as they are dangerous on the turn-over (I guess everyone is LOL), but their backline gets disrupted every year, this time around they have lost their 4 best players in Jacques Louis Potgieter, Meyer Bosman, Lionel Mapoe and Bjorn Basson, 2 of whom have Springbok caps. In fact, if you look at Springboks the Cheetahs have lost over the last few years: CJ van der Linde, Meyer Bosman, Bjorn Basson, Frans Steyn, Ruan Pienaar, Bismarck and Jannnie du Plessis and I'm sure I've missed another one or two. If they could have held on to these players.. [/QUOTE]
