Read: Chiefs finally get first win over Royal AM

Let's take a closer look at the comments... 

KO Comments

Kaizer Chiefs ended a three-game losing streak in the DStv Premiership with a handy 2-0 win over 'bogey' team, Royal AM.

A power failure and going down to ten men in the latter stages of the game weren't enough to stop Amakhosi on the day.

New signing Christian Saile Basomboli made quite the impact off the bench with a lively cameo that included an assist for Ashley Du Preez's goal. 

Here's what the readers had to say on the "Chiefs finally get first win over Royal AM" story: 

"I was not aware that Caleb is also a coach, I saw him giving instructions to the new striker Saile. Demonstrations at its best. Really, it's a joke at that club. You fail to do something you were tasked to do and then you instruct someone," says ngwanamoshate.70. 

The comment above received a sensible reply: 

"Ha ha that is not funny. But that shows hunger to win. He does not care if his teammate is the one scoring but only if the team wins. He is selfless. I was hoping the coach will not sub him and play him, Saile and Du Preez in front. But the coach think he is a 9," replied bafedilechurch. 

"I think Shabalala gets too excited, as a result, his final pass is always misplaced," says yamkela.vava. 

"Where is Tower ???? What crime did he commit Mr. 10111?" says thomaskandodo. 

"Took long for Zwane to see that Kwinika is only quality on paper and different story on the field of play. I think Dove can offer more as a wing back rather than center back. What happened to the former defender of the season signed from Swallows, he was highly rated,: says @Normz.

Orlando Pirates on the hand earned their third win in a row after a 2-0 victory over the struggling Marumo Gallants. 

Goals for Pirates' breakout star, Monnapule Saleng and Phillip Ndlondlo were enough for Jose Riveiro's side to move to fourth on the league table. One point above rivals Kaizer Chiefs. 

On the "Saleng Ndlondlo guide Bucs to third successive win" story, readers expressed their opinions on the team selection on the day: 

"It doesn't look like our coach is serious about accumulating points. He can not be experimenting when we desperately needs the points. Dzvukamanja is just not the answer right now," says mafenya.ramaboea. 

"Why did we sign Mabena? When is he gonna get his chance? The guy is far better than Dzvukamanja," says morewasn. 

"Now the Pirates coach will see Dzvukamanja and I hope he doesn't regret leaving Erusmus outside. Riveiro, are you serious about coaching Pirates? Especially when there are rumours of Manqoba Mngqithi coming to Pirates? I'm laughing..." says itumelengzukani. 

"Wonder if Erasmus has an injury, he was doing well. Makgopa deserves a chance. When is Kabelo Dlamini and Hotto sitting out to give others a chance to shine. Positive thing is that we are playing only one holding midfielder in Monare, which is good," says @Normz.
