Wonke umuntu uyalazi ihlaya lokuthi kubanda kabi e-Free State kangangokuthi abalimi bagqoke izikhindi zangaphansi ezimbili nezikhindi zabo.
Uma ama-Sharks eqeda umdlalo wawo ne-Ulster enkundleni e-Kingspan e-Belfast ngoLwesihlanu ebusuku kufanele agqoke ama-tracksuit esikhundleni sezikhindi zebhola lombhoxo futhi aphathe nezambulela.
Bangalindela izinga lokushisa elingu-9c umoya ongu-20km/h futhi kungenzeka kube nemvula enkulu.
Ama-Bulls abhekene ne-Ospreys enkundleni i-Swansea lapho kunomoya onamandla izinga lokushisa alikho ngaphezu kuka-9c kanye nemvula enkulu.
NgoMgqibelo ama-Lions azobhekana nama-Dragons ngesikhathi esingcono sosuku futhi angabheka phambili phezulu ukunyuka kwamazinga afikd ku-17c, umoya onamandla, kanye nethuba lemvula.
I-Stormers idlala ne-Scarlets Parc y Scarlets e-Llanelli e-Wales ezimeni ezifanayo, kodwa cishe lizoyidliva.
Lawo ngamathemba amaqembu amane aseNingizimu Afrika akwi-United Rugby Championship kule mpelasonto ama-Sharks kanye nama-Stormers.
Amabhubesi asephumile kulo mqhudelwano ngokudlala ngokunganaki, kodwa amanye amaqembu amathathu anakho konke okumele akudlalele.
Ama-Stormers inqobo nje uma egcina izinto zawo ndawonye, kufanele abheke ukuthola ukunqoba okuyibhonasi bedlala ne-Scarlets kanti ama-Bulls kufanele afune okufanayo kuma-Osprey.
Umdlalo omqoka ngempelasonto owama-Sharks ne-Ulster kumele balwele ukukhuphukela phezulu.
I-Sharks esendaweni yesithathu isidlale imidlalo engu-17 yanqoba engu-11 yathola amaphuzu angu-56 ebhonasi.
I-lster osendaweni yesihlanu nayo isidlale imidlalo angu-17 yawina engu-11 ngamaphuzu angu-55 ebhonasi bobabili bayasondelene.
Kuwo wonke amaqembu amane azohlola amakhono namandla nendlela abayiyo.
Kunesizungu laphaya njengoba abantu baseNingizimu Afrika abangu-15 abavela esimweni sezulu esimaphakathi saseNingizimu bebhekana nenkundla egcwele abalandeli abanohlonze nabanomsindo, nomoya obandayo nemvula eshaya imilenze yabo.
