Here it is, the Q3 table as it stands right NOW. Kaizer Chiefs won Q1, Platinum Stars took Q2. Chiefs are clearly favourites for the third cheque of R1.5m.
But look at Moroka Swallows, SuperSport United and Bidvest Wits... and even AmaZulu, who are out of the relegation zone in the overall PSL table for the first time this season.
Sadly, life in Cape Town remains gloomy, with Chippa United and Ajax joining plunging Leopards in the bottom three.
1 Kaizer Chiefs 6 4 2 0 10 3 7 14
2 Moroka Swallows 6 3 2 1 9 6 3 11

These important provisos from the ever-efficient Luxolo September, PSL media manager:
- Kaizer Chiefs vs Orlando Pirates has NOT been included because it is a Q4 match brought forward.
- Q3 will only be complete when postponed matches from this quarter have been played.
Some quotes from Kaizer Chiefs boss Stuart Baxter on SportsTalk last night (www.702.co.za) after the Soweto derby:
“Kingston Nkatha has a bang on his hip, we got him right for the derby but he got another bang on it. Our for at least a week.
“We’re all desperate for success. It’s a bit like Arsenal. We wanted to make this a coaching environment at the club.
“We’ve just finished re-organising the academy and maybe we can get a bit of silverware at the end of the season.
“Kaizer’s ambition is that we will be able to provide for the future from the youth and make one or two marquee signings.
“We have got that sort of talent and we’re hoping to attract it as well.
“We’re gone to have eight cup finals now. We’re hoping to take each one as it comes, prepare meticulously.
“I don’t think I’ve ever had to manage players in such difficult circumstances. The hype for this one is world class, even if the game wasn’t!
“I haven’t woken up with one hand on the title. I’ve woken up like a man who wanted three points yesterday!“
And this from Gavin Hunt, in the pub after Mor Diouf's sensational 60-year "Beckham strike won the Tshwane derby:
"When he hit it, I thought: "Where's that going." Then I saw where Wayne (Sandilands, the goalkeeper) was and I started running. I didn't stop. He'll never do that again in his life, I promise you.
"I actually felt sorry for Pitso (Mosimane). They should have had us 5-0 in the first half. I must be going senile, I forgot to make substitutions until half-time. Then we got better."
