OFM

regular captain Chucky van der Westhuizen returns this week to lead the side in a crucial clash against the Valke at Barnard Stadium in Kempton Park on Saturday.

Van der Westhuizen missed the past few weeks - particularly away fixtures - following the birth of his second son. In his absence, Neels Volschenk stepped up impressively, leading the team with composure, but is now set for a well-earned rest.

Back in the fold, Van der Westhuizen was quick to credit his wife, Zanria, for holding things together at home.

It’s his first season with the Cheetahs and he’s definitely making an impact:

👉 1 try against the Griffons

👉 2 tries against the Eagles

So the BIG question… are we getting 3 this weekend against the Falcons in Kempton Park? 👀🏉

Toyota Cheetahs head coach Frans Steyn has welcomed the signing and pending arrive of the two-time Rugby World Cup winning Springbok, Faf de Klerk, ahead of the Currie Cup.

Steyn, who shared the field with De Klerk during their time in the Springbok setup, including the triumphant 2019 Rugby World Cup campaign in Japan, is clearly excited about what the seasoned scrumhalf will bring to Bloemfontein. While the union officially confirmed the deal on 12 April, De Klerk had in fact already put pen to paper back in February.

Steyn told OFM Sport that he believes the Bok scrumhalf will have a similar impact to that of Ruan Pienaar when he joined the Cheetahs in 2019 - not just in terms of on-field control, but in lifting standards across the board.

In hierdie intieme radioonderhoud praat Renaldo oor sy nuutste enkelsnit wat meer is as net ’n liedjie — dit is ’n terugkeer na die onskuld, die moed en die onvervaarde hoop van ons jongste self. “Ons droom te klein,” sê hy — nie omdat ons drome nie kan waar word nie, maar omdat ons soms vergeet om hulle hard genoeg te wil hê. Luister hoe hy die musiek, die boodskap en die visuele wêreld van Droom Te Klein ontgin — van Menlyn se dak tot die uitkykpunt in Waterkloof… en al die plekke tussenin waar drome weer begin leef.

'n Biotegnologiemaatskappy genaamd Loyal het aangekondig dat hulle 'n anti-verouderingsmiddel vir honde ontwikkel en dit mag dalk vinniger beskikbaar wees as wat ons dink.
