The Beer Cup - Do Chiefs and Pirates fans know what they want?

--:--
Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, Mamelodi Sundowns and AmaZulu will do battle in the Carling Black Label Cup on Saturday, the final action of the domestic season before a break for the 2022 Fifa World Cup in Qatar.

The Black Label Cup used to be only for two teams - Chiefs and Pirates - but has now expanded to include four, and in this week's Ballz to the Wall podcast, Phakaaathi's regular team of editor Jonty Mark, along with soccer writers Sibongiseni Gumbi and Tshepo Ntsoelengoe, discuss the competition, which allows fans to vote for who they want to see on the field at FNB Stadium on Saturday.

But did the Chiefs and Pirates fans, along with the Sundowns and AmaZulu supporters, pick the right player? And are there too many regulars in the sides they have picked that they have been complaining about all season?
