VIDEO: Pro14 fans underestimating the Cheetahs and Kings need to watch this
By Peteso Cannon
If you are wondering what to expect from Pro 14’s latest housemates, it’s all clearly outlined in the video below.
Like anyone moving abroad, they are looking for a fresh start. Things got a bit stale at home and far away pastures are always greener.
The Pro 12 (as it were) will be hoping that fresh faces around the place will revitalize the league and, all going well, will be the rationale behind adding more teams next season such as Washington.
The Kings and Cheetahs come with their own baggage, Cheetahs winning just four fixtures this season compared to the relatively successful six the Kings won.
The reality is that the Pro 12 have acquired the Dragons or Edinburgh of Super Rugby. But with an untested formula such as this, it could be a hit… or a miss.

It was like watching men play schoolboys
Go to commentsI'd rate the brothers Hendricks a point or two lower. Jaden has really not delivered on his early promise and Jordan's kicking at posts was quite erratic. Amongst other things.
I was really surprised that DuhDuh was replaced and not Jordan. DuhDuh had a great game and just underlined his class in a backline that was not firing on all cylinders.
Damian Willemse was missed. Hopefully he'll be back to full fitness and have an injury free 2025 (and '26 and '27 and so on until he decides to retire to spend time with his grandchildren).
RG was great. What an athlete.
Very happy that Hanekom made his debut at last. He gave a good account of himself and will hopefully grow into his role on the international stage.
All things considered, this was another frustrating Bok performance. Even though it was a comfortable win, it wasn't a commanding win. This Welsh team should've been put away by a far larger margin.
But I have faith in Dr Rassie. He knows more than I do. Bring on 2027 😁
