Frans Steyn - Reacts to hit-out against the Griffons in Bloemfontein

Loading player...
The Toyota Cheetahs delivered a convincing performance on Wednesday in their only SA Cup warm-up fixture, brushing aside the Griffons in Bloemfontein with a commanding 64–14 victory.
In an extended hit-out of around 100 minutes, the Cheetahs crossed for three tries as they fine-tuned their preparations for next month’s SA Cup opener against the Boland Cavaliers. It was a productive outing overall, but not without its concerns.
Head coach Frans Steyn echoed the concerns around discipline, but was satisfied with how the group handled a challenging day that included the resignation of CEO Rory Duncan and the absence of forwards coach Tiaan Liebenberg due to family reasons.
