These players will be swimming in money! Good for them they deserve it. Not this nonsense of telling players to play for the badge while their bank accounts are empty!!! Congratulations, Sundowns FC –  Mabo Nyathi 

Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs players play for the badge as Mamelodi Sundowns players play for the money – Peter Thabo

I knew Pirates wouldn't challenge Downs, it's been 13 years since Bucs last won a league trophy. When I was 1 year old, now I'm in high school – Jason Costa 

Mamelodi Sundowns celebrate like kings, but Kaizer Chiefs celebrate like someone who received two bottles of beer – Temo Thuo 

At Sundowns, we celebrate big things. You can't tell me about the Nedbank Cup. What is that? We have to fight for the league – Perpetuating Savage

Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs owners don't give enough money to their players. That is the reason –  Sabu Marime

A brand can't be challenged; every coach that comes to Sundowns thinks once they leave the brand will go down the drain, only for the brand to continue breaking new records. There's only one day that this country will have a public holiday,  when Sundowns hand over the PSL – Mpho Koza 

Maybe after winning the Caf Champions League, we'll give a chance to Pirates and others to win PSL, but if not, we will continue where we left off – Luthando Mtiyane

Congratulations are in order for Mamelodi Sundowns, hard luck Pirates; next time. As for other teams, including my Kaizer Chiefs, you really disappoint, guys. Let's hope we'll have a competitive league next year. Again, congratulations, guys – Carlin Carlin 

Sundowns are used to winning big Cups, that is why they don't make unnecessary noise like Kaizer Chiefs, who won a small Cup last weekend. After all, Sundowns' cup is three times bigger than what they won – Dady Bheki
