    They don't really like the breakdown these lads!

    It's ok. Gusher will be talking about Coetzees contribution to the schools cup final by the end of the year

    The home African side really getting going now, tough for the away one to get back into the game.

    It's so good to see Leali'ifano back to full health and running at full tilt.

    This is a fantastic ad for the new league
    I'm enjoying this immensely

    Its action, admittedly. But quality rugby? Mmmm.

    Cheetahs are defensively appalling. Organisation is really poor and they've fallen off a good few too.

    from what I've seen so far even the Italians won't be afraid of playing the SA teams

    They have great pace, but most of their scores were opportunist. As Molloy says, their defence is awful - huge gaps for Ulster to exploit.

    Impressed with both of Ulster half backs so far. For guys who have only trained together for a week and are both debuting for Ulster I think they've been really good.

    Jaysus how did Coetzee get away with diving into the ruck with no arms? Even the crowd seemed to groan

    Have they displayed the pack weights? Cheetahs look teeny tiny.

    Try in the first minute for Ludik.......strong lad, but tackling was pathetic.

    It's like watching a rugby team play two 7s teams at once.

    I think the ref needs to understand when the tackle is completed. That should have been a Cheetahs penalty for not releasing.
