Now a chance to even things up for the Blues as the Cheetahs obstruct the Blues players at the kick off.

Cheetahs now have a chance to go into the lead again as Luke Braid is adjudged to be in front of the kicker, Hickey.

Penalty to the Blues after a no arm tackle by the Cheetahs. Nothing dangerous or malicious as the player went straight at the ankles...Interesting call.

After a period of intense play by the visitors the Cheetahs go ahead via the boot of Goosen.

Congratulations to Charlie Faumuina on his 50th Super Rugby cap and Adriaan Strauss on his 50th cap as Cheetahs Captain

We are having a moments silence for the passing of Frank Oliver. He played 43 times for the All Blacks and coached the Hurricanes & Blues.

We are 10 minutes away from today's Super Rugby start. A number of player and positional changes for both sides. the Cheetahs are desperate for a win and the Blues are aware of this too. We hope you enjoy today's coverage of the Blues & Cheetahs here at Eden Park
