Treviso qualify to play in the Heineken Cup, but they traditionally don’t make it past the initial pool stages. They have a few decent players, probably a little stronger than the Spears (by the sounds of things). That said, I can’t imagine they would have sent a full strength team considering they are still playing in their domestic season and the 6 Nation starts next week (so most of the Italian players would have been cotton-wooled).

I see the Cheetahs as potential semifinalists (assuming we can dislodge a few NZ teams this time) along with teh bulls. I give them more chance than the Stormers or Sharks…

Hell PA

You said it first!!!

GROM SAAM- GO VODACOM CHEETAHS- GO SUPER 14 !!!

Travelling to the Oranje Outback and winning here will not be easy.

The Country Couzins are going to nail some big teams, that is for sure, and then lose to the minnows- ea Reds, Stormers

Go Cheetahs, I cant wait to see these guys against ‘real’ opposition in the S14 proper. I’m realistic and dont think they’ll make the semis but they will definately not be relegated. I predict a few red faces and bruised ego’s of the antipodean variety leaving our shores this season.
Does anybody know if they are playing any games in Kimberley???

Can any one tell me about this Treviso team? Would the Spears have been a better match up? Who do they play in Europe? Who else are they playing in SA?

Good on the cheetahs, not too much to read into this, sub standard opposition.

The real thing starts with the Bulls running at them.

GO cheetahs !!
