The Cheetahs booked their place in the PRO14 knockout stages with a 29-20 victory over the Southern Kings at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.
Tries from Paul Schoeman, Niel Marais and Uzair Cassiem and seven points from the boot of Marais gave the Cheetahs a 22-13 interval lead, Ntabeni Dukisa crossing for the hosts with Masixole Banda kicking a conversion and two penalties.
Francois Venter then crossed for the bonus-point try after the break for the Cheetahs and Marais converted to secure their place in the post-season.
Harlon Klaasen added a try for the Southern Kings and Banda took his tally for the afternoon to nine points with the extras.
