Rory Duncan and Torsten van Jaarsveld - Tread lightly for the Southern Kings

Loading player...
The Toyota Cheetahs remain wary of the Southern Kings despite Saturday’s 45-21 Guinness Pro14 victory at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth.

During the first half the Cheetahs were the better of the two teams, while the Kings showed glimpses of brilliance during the second forty minutes.

After 12 rounds the Cheetahs comfortably occupy the third place in the Conference A standings behind Glasgow Warriors and Munster, while the Kings are still winless in Conference B.

The Cheetahs coach, Rory Duncan, says the Kings will beat some teams, but they have to make sure that is not against them.

Saturday’s return derby at the Toyota Stadium kicks off at 17:00.
