Word from BHP: It has occurred to me after chatting with a few SBR followers that they see the rankings as a relative strength measure of teams, which it not really is. The ranking system is there to measure how you are doing this season relatively compared to other teams.…
Die Burger still seems to be struggling to establish itself as a knock-out tournament of significance.
The concept for this small Cape coastal belt competition is borrowed from the highly successful Noordvaal Beeldtrofee (formerly Administrators’ Cup) and is therefore a good one.…

Maritzburg College versus Glenwood games on Goldstones in Pietermaritzburg should carry a health warning. The closing stages of the last four matches between the KwaZulu-Natals intercity rivals on the famous ground have gone down to the wire.

“Once again and for the third successive year Dale College First Rugby XV will wear their Pink Strip of Pink jerseys and shorts to highlight the disease of Cancer when Dale College and a formidable Selborne College play the 189th game against each other in King William’s Town. This history of rugby rivalry goes back to 1892! Dale’s sort after motivating Pink Strip is only worn by Dale once a year at present. The initiative and motivation behind Pink Day at Dale and playing in Pink strip to highlight Cancer is still possibly a first for any South African schools”…
It wasn’t that long ago that there was just one national school rugby ranking system, now every about every website that covers rugby has it’s own one. Here is the combined effect of 7 such website’s rankings. Points have been allocated on the basis of 20 for 1st, 19 for 2nd, etc, etc. while the remaining few teams are from those who were ranked best outside the Top 20.…
Glenwood will travel up the N3 freeway to Maritzburg College’s Goldstones on Saturday in search of a win period. The bonus will be that if they achieve it, they will be the undisputed No.1 team in KwaZulu-Natal for the 2014 season. Defeat would open up a potentially lively debate about who the best team in KwaZulu-Natal is in 2014 as it would probably result in College finishing ahead of Glenwood on a few different national ranking systems including the BHP used on this website.…
Kingswood broke their derby day hoodoo with a determined victory over Graeme College, in a pulsating fixture on Somerset Field. Kingswood came back from a 19-8 deficit to clinch the game at the death.…

Actually, for the whole preceding week the Town is split into two camps. The Blue and White of Boishaai and the Maroon, Green and Gold of Paarl Gim. These colours will feature on almost every tree, gate, porch or window of Main Street Paarl.…

KZN’s popular youth club rugby for under-13 up to under-18 players begins at Northwood Crusaders rugby ground in Durban North this Sunday. As always there is plenty of incentive for young rugby players to do well.…
Big news doing the rounds is that Grey College fullback Henry Immelman has been included in the Free State Currie Cup 2014 training squad. At this stage it’s unclear whether this is a genuine call-up or just some sort of I don’t know marketing or incentive ploy that rugby unions like to make use of from time to time. Either way the story kind of reminds me of Jaco Taute from back in 2009 when we was a 6 A’s matric student at Monument in Krugersdorp and got to make his debut for the Lions senior team at just aged 18.…
Official or unofficial, I’m not sure this kind of stuff is even news anymore.
Rapport newspaper reported that at least half of the SA Schools team for 2014 would have to be players of colour.…
