Week 5 of the Currie Cup saw Western Province decimate Griquas as they signalled they are the team to beat.

Kimberly is never the easiest places for visiting sides to travel too, but in the second half, Province took their game to a new level as they showed how strong they are, and how difficult they’ll be to catch on the leaderboard.

The Sharks and the Free State Cheetahs had well dserved, hard fought wins over opposition they were expected to dominate. Both sides will be glad to have gotten the 5 points.

The defending Champions, the Blue Bulls struggled to get the 5 points at home over the Leopards. It will probably be the easiest game of the season for the Bulls, so there are concerns looking ahead to next weeks match against Province, but they’re hanging on in 3rd spot!
