EP Kings injuries after Cheetahs loss

By

The Toyota Free State Cheetahs kept their unbeaten run intact in a high scoring match against the Eastern Province Kings in Bloemfontein. The PE side does have some defensive issues and conceded 33 tries already, but they do score some spectacular ones themselves. In all, 12 tries were scored in a very entertaining match.
