Munster the latest victms of a Cheetahs' mauling
By RugbyPass
The Cheetahs maintained their perfect start to the Guinness PRO14 with a comfortable 40-16 victory over Munster in Bloemfontein.
The hosts ran in six tries as they secured a third straight win and inflicted a first defeat of the campaign on three-time champions Munster.
Four of those tries came after the break in a dominant second-half display from the South African side as they stretched their advantage from 12-9 at the interval. Munster managed just one in reply as Dan Goggin crossed in the second half.
It was the final match in charge of the Cheetahs for Franco Smith, who is set to take over as head coach of the Italy national team.
Dallen Stanford is a South African born former seven's player turned broadcaster. RugbyPass caught up with him in Japan to discuss his journey and his predictions for the 2019 Rugby World Cup.

I think we need to get innovative with the new laws.
Now red cards are only 20 minutes, Razor should send Finau on a head hunting mission to hospitalise their 10 with a shoulder to the chops.
Give the conspiracy theorists a win.
Go to commentsEngland played well enough to win but couldnt score when they needed to and couldnt defend a couple of X-Factor moments from Telea which was ultimately the difference. They needed to hold the ball more and make the AB's make more tackles. Territorially they were good for the first 60. Defending their lead and playing pragmatic rugby in the last 20 was silly. The AB's always had the potential to come back. England still have a long way to go, definite progress would have been shown had they won but it seems they are still stuck where they were shortly after the six nations and their tour to NZ
