Dis net Affies-Menlo op die donderse blog! Het iemand opgemerk dat PRG vir die befaamde Rondebosch ‘n lekker pak op hul tuisveld gegee het en dat Monnas, Boksburg toe was en teruggekom het met ‘n wegwen. En dat Helpmekaar, wat nie in die MAKRO liga wil speel nie, vir Kloof gewen het! Manne, die politieke stront tussen die Protoria skole neem soveel spasie op, dat daar min plek is vir ware rugbypraatjies. Ek was nie by een vd wedstryde gewees nie en sal graag by die manne wat daar was, wil hoor, wat het gebeur?
@beet: I was sitting between first team parents on the stands during Saturday’s match and you are right about this Southern Cape derby. For the boys this is one of, if not the most important game of the season. It’s also the game that determent the SWD champ. Something else that I saw again and can’t really explain. The only age group that was totally in favour of The Kwaggas was u/14 where they won all 3 games and by some margin. This was also the case 2 years ago and this year Oakdale won all 3 U/16 games.
Do some boys stop playing rugby or is it just a case of development?
Anyone see the Selborne vs Cambridge game ,wondering how the comeback of Morgan Steyn went . Did he have a influence on the team .
@Frik: Hou aan teen groot honde speel, dis hoe julle seuns se rugby van krag tot krag kan gaan.

@Vyfster: Dankie, ja ons het ‘n moeilike seisoen. Wat mense nie besef nie is dat ons ‘n baie jong span het hierdie jaar – elf 0/17’s in die span!
Dit bly maar moeilik vir ‘n skool sonder koshuise om kompeterend te wees met die groot honde, nie dat dit ‘n verskoning is nie, ons verkies om teen die groot spanne te speel en elke dan en wan het ons ‘n span wat goed vaar teen van die tradisioneel sterk rugby skole.
@Vyfster: I agree. Huge result for Framesby.
Also huge is Oakdale beating Outeniqua. That’s a match I would really like to see televised. A derby of note.
Ek reken die ander groot uitslag wat die kaarte deurmekaar krap is Framesby oor Marlow…….geluk aan Framesby, hulle seisoen sover was maar moeilik met paar slegte nederlae…..vat karakter om op te staan en nie net boedel oor te gee nie
@4×4: Jy sal so vanaf 09:00 more die Bulle spanne op die Blue Bulls High Schools facebook page kry. Dit behoort genoeg tyd vir die skole te wees om die spelers te kan inlig voor dit bekend gemaak word.
Soos gewoonlik sal daar seker weer ‘n verrassing of 2 wees
@4×4: nog nie bekend nie… eers more oggend hoor ek…
Baie geluk Helpies met julle wen. Kloof het heelwat beserings gehad na die Affies wedstryd dus dink ek die seuns in die 2de span wat die step up moes doen het gesukkel om die step up te maak.
Rugbyman….is die Craven Week span al bekend gemaak en hoeveel spelers het julle in die span met posisies…ek neem aan Papier kies homself, blerrie goeie skrummie daai.
‘n Paar opmerkings:
Geluk aan Oakdale – hulle het gewys hulle hoort by die topskole.
Waterkloof se verloor teen Helpmekaar was te wagte na hul eerste 3 harde wedstryde na mekaar.
Affies se groot oorwinning oor Jeppe was te wagte en wys hulle hoort in die top 4.
Monnas het dit deurgetrek – het my verkeerd bewys.
@Cappie: As ek net so kon raakvat met my Superbru
@Cappie: Lees ek reg? Het Menlo ook gister teen Rustenburg ontrek? Wat gaan aan? Kan Murryfield uit die kas Klim en redes gee?
I forgot to mention that Lwazi Monokali is the chap who left SACS for KES last year, which caused such a big furore. To be honest, I wish that he’d stayed at SACS, as St Alban’s would probably have won yesterday if he had.
On a related note, I wonder how strong SACS would have been this year if he had stayed there?
@4×4: En ek weet die arme hoof wil so graag die rugby groot maak in die skool.
Nee cappie die seuns wat voorheen rugby gespeel het, het nou hokkie verpligtinge.
@4×4: O, is dit hoekom hulle net 9 spanne het? Die kinders fokus eerder op die akademie en kan nie meer rugby speel nie. Ek dink Vrede kan meer spanne as dit in die veld stoot.
@4×4: Onaanvaarbaar
Daniel Pienaar won 35-21 against Pearson
Cappie…..Menlo het hulle wedstryde teen Rustenburg, Affies en Glenwood gekanselleer…blykbaar is dit te naby aan die eksamen
@Bere73: En daar is jy toe reg oor die Helpmekaar Waterkloof wedstryd. Ek het nooit gedink Helpmekaar sal Waterkloof kan wen nie. Kloof het nou 6 van hulle laaste 7 wedstryde verloor.
Het Menlo gister teen Rustenburg gespeel, of kon hulle nie hulle span vol kry nie?
@Redblack White: Thank you sir! Bastion had a good season so far, so the win was a good one for Linden.
Was at the Stellenberg HHH games yesterday. Should have been more than 57-0, a few passes that didnt go to hand in first half but Stellenberg really played some attractive rugby in second half. Age group scores was something like u14 78-0, u15 72-0, u16 38-0 and second team game which was stopped 15 minutes early was 71-0. Second week in a row that we put these kind of scores up against opposition that is clearly not in our league.
Nice win for Linden at Ellis Park – well done to your guys Mr Lindenpa
Been a long time since DHS beat a top 5 side in KZN, honestly was expecting a better performance today. Not sure when Westville play them but could be a big score. I think it’s now going on 12 years since we last lost to DHS…
b.t.w geluk aan Helpies met oorwinning oor kloof….het dit nogal verwag…..saam met Oakdale oor Kwaggas , Monnas oor EG en Ville se wen waarskynlik die mees significant van die naweek
question for the statisticians and historians……..Ben Vorster and Pietersburg drew 48-48 today . I cannot recall a higher drawn score in 1st team SBR…….96 points couldn’t seperate the two…….anybody know of ‘n higher drawn game in SBR history?
Score for Diamantveld and Landboudal is incorrect. That was the halftime score. Final score was 22-5 for Diamantveld.
Sien Affies verwys na hulle A-veld as Die Plaas…seker een van die min plase wat nog nie onder ‘n grondeis is of onteien is nie. En geskat aan die taalmeduim een van die skole wat sie eienaar nog nie deur die regering geteiken word vir dubbelmeduim nie
Daai Wit Brahaman kan lekker wei….wonder of die seekoeie oorkant die pad nie baie weiding opvreet nie?
Baie geluk Oakdale met julle terugveg nadat julle 17-6 agter was. Goeie wen!
Eldoraigne 17 – 13 HTS John Vorster.
The U/16 game was stopped very early with the score something like Eldo 85 – 0. I might be wrong with the exact score but it was around 85
Thanks Gungets. Was hoping for a School win.

@ Grasshopper I also got it wrong.
@Griffonfly: ok, my error. Hilton might still consider pulling out as they lost at age group level…
Hilton College 1st XV 41; DHS 1st XV 10 from Hilton FB page.
@Gungets Tuft: I heard DHS won, maybe wrong….
Hilton 41 – 10 according to Twitter
Massive result for DHS today, must be their 1st win over a top 6 in KZN side in a while. A wonder if Hilton will pull out of fixtures with DHS now
Sorry but Umtata posted result says 28 24 but must be other schools.
What was the Hilton vs DHS result?
@Griffonfly: You for real, I heard 41 – 10 to Hilton.
@Cappie: Affies is quite outstanding every time they came in our half they scored. Must say very impressed with the accuracy and the clinical nature that Affies play. Must say the Affies centres hurt us today and the boys will be very sore on Monday. I understand what it is important that we play Affies it some for the boys to aim for. Glad this has become regular fixture again in these last five years. Although I think in the five years there has been 110 rugby games played between the school we have struggled to a poultry 6 or 7 wins but ….. like I said earlier the boys enjoyed it. Great game of ruggas at Affies Plaas see you all at Collard next year
Well done DHS for the win over Hilton. Well done to Westville on a great performance against Glenwood. Westville thoroughly deserved their win on Dixon on Old Boys Day.
KES beat St Alban’s by 18 to 10 in a scrappy game at KES.
St Alban’s missed three or four very kickable penalties that might have made the difference, but I think that the result was fair. The main difference between the two sides was Lwazi Monokali who scored both of KES’s tries from his own half. He is one of five KES players (I think) to make one of the Lions provincial teams.
I was surprised to see Tony de Zorzi playing at flyhaf. He skipped the first half of the season as he’s been selected for the SA u19 cricket team.
Oakdale 24-17 Outeniqua
Grogper nicely tied up now :-)
@Ringo: Ek dink regtig nie dit was manne teen seuns nie. Jeppe se skrum het Affies tot op die einde teruggedruk, en hulle het nooit gaan lê nie. Affies se loosies was weer briljant, en die agterlyn het met baie flair gespeel. Dit was deurgaans ‘n baie aantreklike wedstryd met Jeppe wat net baie min bal gesien het.
Baie geluk aan Jeppe se eerste hokkiespan wat Affies 4-0 oorrompel het. Affies het baie min beheer gehad oor die bal. Affies kon nog nooit vir Jeppe wen nie, en die verskil is professionaliteit waarmee Jeppe dinge doen. Hulle is uitstekend!
Jeppe se gees en die ordentlikheid van hulle seuns en ouers is fantasties. Dankie vir ‘n lekker derby.
Paul Roos 32 Rondebosch 7 game played in Rondebosch on a very wet muddy field, well done to the winelands boys!
MHS 37 St John’s 3
Second half was truly a case of men versus boys 64 – 26 to Affies…… they use a 5 prong pace attack number 3,4,8,10 and 12 amazing players. Well done Affies
@Umtata: Sjoe! That was close. It must have been a humdinger

Hoe gaan dit da in Nelspruit?????
This is my last whinge about referee training. Every game here at Affies including the 14 E game I am currently watching is being officiated by a union ref. The guys are learning and I am sure union is healthier for this experience they are gaining. On a rugby note although the Affies rugby is far superior to Jeppe’s the gap is closing and whilst the scores 5 years ago were mainly margins of more than 80 points now the mean margin is now 45 points and oddly the kids seem to be enjoying it.
@Grasshopper: Stories circulating about some referee assignment changes. 1sts and U15A. Anyone able to confirm?
Under 14a Glenwood 19 – Westville 14, closer than expected. Under 15a Glenwood 61 – Westville 12, bigger than expected!
Any results from Glenwood?
@4×4: Tx! Nee wat ons doen net die beste vir ons seuns! Die korps bestaan uit mense wat eerbaar operate met passie en integriteit! Ons is nie perfek nie, maar niemand is nie!
Radio Ruggas………12h15………Monnas vs EG Jansen………..Live vanaf die Midde Ooste
Ek dink ook dit is vir Blou Bulle Rugby in geheel goed as die talent poel oor verskeie skole versprei is.
Geniet dit…en al wat ek wil sê is dat Garsies rugby op die op en op is. Steur julle nie aan ander nie want soos die gesegde lui die hoë bome vang mos al die wind!
@4×4: Ons is op dieselfde bladsy! Sit nou juis hier by die laerskole millenium dag en rugby kyk!
Rugbyman…soos jy kan sien is ek ‘n groot voorstaander van die herinstel van die Affies – Garsies derby. Ek dink dat Dr. Edwards die sentimente het sodat of ten minste meeste seuns kan deelneem en nie net bloot toeskouers is nie en bied vir seuns op dieselfde dag geleenthede.
Daarom juis dink ek dat Garsies ook 16 – 18 spanne in die veld kan stoot. Ek is en dal altyd teen werwing wees teen vergoeding, maar voel dat van julle seuns ‘n geleentheid gebied word om uit hulle sosio-ekenomiese omstandighede verhewe te word en neem ek aan dit is nie net seuns uit vooraanstaande skole wat na Garsies toe gaan nie.
Menlo aan die ander kant se primere doel is om te wen ten alle koste en vandaar ook die headhunting van seuns in ander Pretoria Hoërskole…redelike verskil in benadering sou ek sê
Not often score of 31 – 7 would considered close. But well done Affies u15 a great attack and clinical finishing in the the first 15 minutes. Than great defence for the reminder of the game
What a turn up for the history books. Jeppe u14 a 24 – 18 against affies. Great for the young boys that is hectic achievement
@4×4: Ek verstaan jou sentiment om anoniem te bly en ek sal dit respekteer…
Tradisionele seuns skole sê jy? Sjoe is die res van ons dan benede hierdie skole? Moet daar net seuns skole wees? Mense kan tog so eng in hulle denke wees… die sogenaamde wedywering om seuns pla slegs omdat van die top seuns nou ook ander skole verkies… en as die genoemde seuns skool nie wedywer nie, hoekom was hulle werwingspan dan aan huis by laerskool garsfontein seuns? Vir die lekker koekies en tee? Hoekom het Pierre Spies dan persoonlik namens affies by CP kom bemark? Vir die pasteie by die snoepie? Sjoe… ek dink die tradisionele seuns skole wedywer lekker saam…
En asseblief affies ondersteuners, moet my nou nie skiet nie! Wat maak n tradisionele skool beter as die ander skole? Net ouderdom? Is dit nie so klein bietjie snobisties nie…? Ek vra maar net… gun elkeen hul plekkie onder die son! Ek het geen probleem met affies nie, maar soms maak mense uitlatings wat rerig bietjie arrogant en snobisties voorkom… Ons maak rugby in pretoria seer met hierdie speel/nie speel benadering… Dis nie gesond nie – punt!
My vraag bly: hoekom speel hulle dan krieket, hokkie en (affies meisies netbal) teen die nie-tradisionele skole? Hoekom neem hulle teen mekaar met atletiek deel? Hoekom nie rugby nie? Garsies sal affies die meeste spanne van al die gemengde skole in pta kan gee… maar ons durf nie speel nie want ons werf spelers? Sjoe… Glennwood werf baie meer spelers as wat ons ooit kan droom, maar daar word teen hulle gespeel… dit maak net nie sin nie… jammer manne, ek wil nie julle moere pluk nie… ek verstaan net nie
@4×4: Atterbury is reeds betrokke by privaat skole en doen die gerugte die rondte dat hulle dit wil uitbrei na 10 skole. Hulle is reeds by Prestige College betrokke.
Ek dink die inligting hierbo verduidelik hoe Onesport strategies van waarde kan wees.
Saints 14 Northwood 19 – was great to see the support / war cries and all at kings park!
Môre Manne….julle weet mos nou al teen die tyd dat el ‘n kleintjie dood het teen die identifikasie van seuns op die blog, en sal dit dieselfde sinario wees vir my eie seun.
Rugbyman…6 Mei was ‘n groot dag by Garsies en ek reken dat Garsies vgl jaar ‘n mooi onder 14 span in die veld gaan stoot. Die opkoms by Affies die 27 Mei was na bewering die grootste in jare.. Volgens. Dr. Edwards is daar reeds voor die opedag 275 aansoeke ontvang en goedgekeur en as ek so na die seuns gekyk het wat daar was behoort Affies ook weer ‘n bul onder 14 span te hê.
Ek hoop werklik van harte dat die skole hulle probleme kan uitsorteer ten aansien van die rugby, want dit sal wragtig ‘n voorreg wees om die twee skole teen mekaar te kan sien meeding, hulle doen dit dan in die ander sport kodes
Skoorsteen…nou stook jy. Maar ek kan petrol op die vuur gooi. Gerugte doen die rondte dat Atterbury ‘n belang bekom het in Onesport, en as die gerugte waar is beteken dit dat die werwing van skoolseuns deur Menlo nou ‘n uber vlak gaan bereik en vermoed ek dat daar ingezoem sal word op die ander Pretoria skole se kallers.
Ek praat gedurende Affies opedag met ‘n pa wie se seun in die onder 16 span is en sy jongste seun meld vgl jaar aan vir diens by Affies. Ek is deur hom meegedeel dat Dr. Edwards ‘n voorstaander is van rugbywedstryde tussen tradisionele seunsskole, soos wat voorheen op die blog bespreek is.
Rede wat aangevoer word is dat die kompetisie in Pretoria om die wedywering van kinders ‘n ongesonde situasie bereik het en vermoed ek dat die betrekking van Onesport ‘n groot aandeel daarin het, sou dit waar wees gaan al die Affies in die toekoms net teen Pretoria Boys High speel.
Dink die stoepspanne wat bynekaar gemaak is deur Kloof, kan dalk net ‘n aanduiding wees daarvan want hoekom sal kloof andersins uit hulle pad gaan om 18 spanne teen Affies in die vekd te stoot en nie teen Garsies ook nie?
@CharlesZA: Ja, asseblief!!!! Ek het die vorige keer die vraag aan die verkeerde blogger gerig… Dalk wil 4×4 anoniem bly?
@Gungets Tuft: Bingo
Sou graag die Mpy en in besonder Mnr Moolman se kommentaar oor die ontrekking spesefiek asook Menlo se prestasie die jaar met die Mpy as bodgenoot wou hoor.
@4×4: Kon die maatskapy dan nie lewer nie. Het Menlo dan nie n prestasie klousule met die Mpy nie??? Wat is die toekoms van die Mpy?? Baie vra wat nog by my opkom

@Rugger fan: Can only be Smuts Rogers??
@Ringo: Agreed – there is no substitute for game time. And a wise old ref (sadly now passed on) once said – it’s not about what game you get – it’s about getting a game. He knew then he’d never ref another game – and he was a test level ref cut down in his prime. A gentleman and a man who know that reffing is about more than the politics of which game you get and who gets to see you.
Good luck – and persevere through all the negativity that you come against. You keep positive and enjoy every minute.
@Rugbyman: Die man wil nie vir jou se watter posisie sy seun speel nie. Moet ek hom vra?
@Ringo:
Welcome to the thankless but rewarding task of refereeing. I hope you enjoy it. Hang in there – the road will be bumpy that’s for sure but if you survive the initial 2 years of your career you will be on the road to a very enjoyable and rewarding career. Good luck – look forward to hearing about your adventures.
@AffiePa: Jys 100% korrek… in oorlogvoering divide en conquer mens die vyand… ons ou nasietjie doen sommer die divide self intern en dan conquer almal ons…
@AffiePa: Amen. Ek is seker ‘n paar senior mense sal verstik as hulle die uitslag moet sien indien die leerders gevra word of hulle teen ander Pretoria skole wil speel.
Dis amper soos die e- tol ding. Niemand wil dit he nie maar dit kan nie gestop word nie omdat iemand gesig sal verloor.
Die politiek in die Pretoria skole is om van te stik. Dit is definitief nie tot voordeel van die kinders nie – te veel egos en verskuilde agendas. Ek sien geen goeie rede waarom al die PTA groot skole nie teen mekaar kan speel nie – dit behoort elke jaar te gebeur.
@AffieOuer: met respek… julle het mos laaaaaaaaankal geweet menlo het nie naastenby genoeg spanne nie… menlo het nog nooit meer as 1 tot 5 bo gehad nie… die rumour dat affies en menlo nie gaan speel nie loop al n paar maande…
niemand in pretoria het al die spanne wat affies het nie behalwe vir boys high… wkloof het n “stoep” 6de en 7de span aanmekaar geslaan net vir die affies game… wat vir my hartseer is, is dat die 2 sterkste rugbyskole in pretoria (affies en garsies) nie teen mekaar speel nie! Maar kom ons maak nou nie weer daai debat oop nie…
@4×4: watter posisie in CP se span speel jou seun?
@Rugger fan: I understand the money issue however that does not excuse poor administration I am told there are 200 games and only 50 available active refs … now I know at least 25 candidates who are willing to assist I am not saying give me the Affies/Jeppe u14a game . But I am sure I am competent of handling the u 14 c and down ….. also think I could be able to handle the u14 a game between curro aurora and randpark ridge high so those are games I should be reffing to get game experience
@Ringo: Yes – ref development is rather lacking in general.
Various societies try different things – but in general the process of recruitment, training, development etc. could be greatly improved.
Again – the refs tend to get very little of the sponsorship monies that unions do. So perhaps this is part of the problem?
@QC86: @Vleis: thanks good people but we just got mail from Parktown they only going to use union refs for a team games against PBHS and for the rest of the games they prefer to use their coaches … so our assessment has been cancelled….. it is amazing how the union cries for refs but how unwilling they are to put together a decent training programme for aspiring refs
Bulle en AffieOuer…sal ek dus buite orde wees as ek ‘n aanname maak dag die Menlo – Affie Interskole met ‘n ander derby vervang gaan word? Dink Garsies kan seker nou weer ernstig oorweeg word? Of HTS Middelburg en Middelburg Hoër gesamentlike derby om 18 spanne daar te stel?
@Ringo: Yep, good luck Ringo and good luck to Jeppe.
@Ringo: You are a good man,good luck and may you have 6 pair’s of eyes.
@saints: I saw the score. Not the worst this year by far, but it is a very good side, so no shame.
What is hellova nice to see is the St Charles depth. I think you’re the only school so far that has matched almost College, depth right down to the 6th Open team and U16E (vs our U16F). Keep that up and you’re on your way.
@Grasshopper: Eina! That could hurt a few DHS faithfuls
@Gungets Tuft: we got a serious hockey lesson yesterday from your boys, good luck to other schools like Hilton and MHS i would imagine that the carnage will not stop with us. Great to watch though – scored some fantastic goals..
@GreenBlooded: He is refereeing a premier game in Richard Bay.
@Zulu: We really couldn’t be bothered who ref’s…..as long as he is consistent.
@Cappie: HTSM playing against HTSW and they should win this one, and will end first. So it doesn’t really matter u wins between Nellies and MHS they will end 2nd and 3rd and will play again in the puma semi’s and the winner will play against HTSM in the puma final.
The importance of this game is that tomorrow’s winner will have a home semi’s.
It will be Nellies that will play against MHS next weekend.
@Grasshopper: All games in Pretoria are played on TV; The Veld.
On what do you guys play?
@LAEVELDER: Teen wie speel Nelspruit volgende naweek?
Now Glenwood vs Westville should be on TV, instead of Glenwood vs DHS….
I am going to put my old boy hat on say think Jeppe will shock the world and only lose by 2 points in what will be a high scoring highly entertain game pity I will not be there as I will be reffing at Parktown as I am still starting out I am going to get the u 15 cs or something. But its for the love of the game.
@GreenBlooded: Basically used to be 2 clubs (Sugar mills and forestry guys).
They ended up playing in the Commonwealth games a while back. I remember reffing a chap whose highlight was having Jonah Lomu run right over him
@Gungets Tuft: There weren’t too many supporters from either side but both were vocal. The one light wasn’t working which is why so many of my photos are rather dark. I follow the ball when I take photos – I was very challenged and rather frustrated at trying to find it most of the evening. Good experience – hope to repeat it one day.
Game was 4 all and went to penalty shoot-out. Final score 7-8 to Glenwood.
@Rugger fan:
Does Swaziland have a national rugby team? Or do they just send in the club team from Ubombo Sugar Mill?
@Zulu: Does Swaziland count as international
@Rugger fan: Wouldn’t be the first time. Many a person pulled a throat muscle daarso. Those dumpies are not for sissies …
@GreenBlooded: he will probably end up reffing the U15’s
@Zulu:
That is what I would have done. Probably the biggest game in KZN this season – the top available ref should get it. And there is an ex-international ref floating about at Glenwood………..
@4×4: Ek bevestig dat @Bulle heeltemal reg is – Affies het nie teen Menlo onttrek nie, ons sal graag wou speel
@GreenBlooded: if you have an ex-international ref flouting about use him on the 1st’s !!!!
@star: GW are strong but I think Ville will be keen to piss on their parade. I suspect an upset as Ville have been looking forward to this encounter.
@star: Having seen both WV and GW U16s this year – I think GW will put more than 20 over WV this year. A very well drilled team.
@Zulu:
Or get an ex-international ref to do the 2nds……. 8)
@Zulu: Why do you think the U15 game will be epic? GW are rated 2 in the country and Westville seem to be having an indifferent season. Also while I think the GW U16A will win, history is against them. Can anyone tell me the last time GW U16 beat W. My son has been at Westville since 2011 and I have yet to see a Westville U16A lose to GW. I suppose there is always a first time.
@CyndiAtRugby: Even better result then. KC wuold have had their boarders there to support, the uniqueness of the KC astro is a major issue, then even the lights are different when playing with a small ball (rather than a large rugby or soccer ball). Kudo’s.
KC must be bleak – they lost to College with a penalty, and then didn’t convert one of their own just before full time.
@GreenBlooded: Where at the Bowling Club lunch
@umbiloburger: The U15 game is going to be epic maybe move the ref that was bumped from the 1st team to that game and put the “consistent” one to 2nd’s?
@Gungets Tuft: Game was played at Kearsney.
@Gungets Tuft:
I would get injured before kickoff. Without a doubt.
@4×4: Menlopark het amptelik onttrek omdat hulle net 12 spanne op die veld kan stuur en nie 18 nie, dis nie Affies wat ontrek het nie.
@GreenBlooded: Worse would be you reffing a GW/MC game? You’ll look even more confused than normal
[PS – I see GT already beat me with the chirp]
@Ringo: Well done Ringo – kudos!
@GreenBlooded: Imagine you reffing a 1st team College vs Glenwood game in 2 years time …. you would give yourself an aneurism …
Skoorsteen..ek het gehoor Affies gaan onttrek teen Menlo omdat Menlo hulle net 9 spanne kan gee. Wat is die rede wat aangevoer word waarom Menlo teen Affies wil onttrek?
@GreenBlooded:
@Playa:
I am neither. Imagine me reffing a GW vs WV game??? Ou Star would would hit conspiracy overload………
@Ringo: We’re hear to learn from each other
One of your most famous old boys, Jake White, had the privilege of being educated in two different Baker buildings…one South of the Kei River, and the other north of the Vaal River!
@Playa: ah said I might be wrong. @ MikeST I too would like to convey my condolences to you and yours.
@Ringo: The Dale Junior school building is also a Sir Herbert Baker creation.
@MikeSt: My condolences to you and your loved ones Oom Mike. all strength to you and your sons during this difficult time.
@Vleis: Payne hall is Sir Herbert Baker building. Might be wrong but I think Jeppe and St John’s are the only schools he was the architect off. Jeppe is the oldest boy school north of the vaal river. Sorry that is a bit of a plug. As an old boy and also the father of a young son. I am proud of my school long may it prosper soo that my lightie can enjoy the pleasure of being a member of the Jeppe family.
@GreenBlooded: I take it you must be the other guy
@umbiloburger:
@Zulu: Shelton is good….McDonald is consistent
@Ringo: Your brother in law plays 4ths – hopefully he’s your wife’s younger brother and not your sister’s husband!!
Well done on taking up the whistle. You are a braver man than me.
My wife’s parents came to watch my son play on Saturday and were very impressed with your school. I took them on a short guided tour before the game, including the smaller hall with all the old team photos.
@MikeSt: Condolences to you and your family Mike. Very sorry to hear this.
@MikeSt: My condolences. It put all our daily problems in context. We are praying for you and your family .
@Skoorsteen: Dis waar
@Skoorsteen: Jip dis waar
MikeSt…bitter jammer om te hoor van julle verlies. Bid dat Jesus julle sal omvou met sy liefde gedurende die moeilike tyd. Bid vir jou en jou familie!
@Vleis: no my younger brother is the u 15 a back line coach and brother in law plays 4ths and I am gonna out myself as one of those unfortunate couch potatoes who thought if the idiots on tv can do it. I too can take up the whistle. I am ref but need to put out a caveat that I am probably the worst ref in the world currently. But mostly I am a passionate rugga fan, especially the schoolboy variety which is more entertaining and competitive.
Ek hoor al hoe meer praatjies dat Menlo ontrek het teen Affies. Kan iemand bevestig.
@GreenBlooded: Just heard U15A game is Angus McDonald and the U16A game is some guy Rodney Sheldon, any good?
@umbiloburger: Tidy. That’s got to be a huge help to Jess’s Foundation.
@umbiloburger:
Not going to be Eveleigh. He was given the game and then bumped to the 2nds. Archie of Boksmart paperwork fame will do it. Like I said – the politics of reffing.
Hey – if HP and him end up in a massive collision, do you think it will be acidental??
@Gungets Tuft: I believe they collect around R10000 per game.
@umbiloburger: How much is generally collected, given that it is voluntary. My son is a born cynic (gets it from his mom) but he was hellovu impressed with Jess when she spoke at College 2 years ago, so it’s a cause I happily donate to, I just wonder how many Glenwood folk are content to donate each week?
For a cause this worthy, I am a little surprised that there is not more detail on the Glenwood website.
@umbiloburger: @Zulu:
Warren Eveliegh – good mate of mine. He’s certainly competant and I enjoy his ‘laid back’ approach to the game – doesn’t get flustered and takes it in his stride. How he managed to get through the Durban Society politics to snag the game of the season is surprising – thought one of the prima-donnas would get it. Also, one of the few of the top okes who still walks amoung us mortals. Good on him – hope he has a cracker.
On the others – don’t know what goes on in Durban anymore.
@umbiloburger: I’ve found it mostly from the leafy ‘burbs. One Mommy a few years back threatened to sue Glenwood. I think she spent about R200 at the tuck shop during the day though. If you get there in the morning, you’ll probably get to see at least 5 top quality games of rugger at the princely sum of R2 per game…
@umbiloburger: Do you have the seasons results so far for the Glenwood u14A, u15A and u16A?
@Ringo: Do you have a lightie in any of the Jeppe sides?
While Jeppe are not the same without Green, they’re still a very good team. They provided four players in the Lions u18 team that drew with the Bulls on Tuesday. It would’ve been five if Green had played.
You seem to be lacking big tall locks at present, as I noticed that last year’s u16A flanks have played lock for the 1st team for most of this season.
@Vleis: to be honest my good man Tyrone Green the Jeppe 10 has been playing on bad knees this whole season which has affected his running pace…. the boy won inter high 300m hurdles opens when he was still under 15. But last year while playing for the lions sevens u18 seven team he suffered a severe injury and it was said he would not play all season. As you saw this past Sat without him Jeppe is a very ordinary team not at all top 20 material. My advice would be to wrap him in cotton balls and only use him for the last 4 games of the season. I think chances a slim to none against these affies pace bowlers with or without him….. but next year on Collard Ons gaan dai witbul vang …… see also can throw out some Kitchen Dutch
@umbiloburger: That U15A game is going to be a cracker. There are bragging rites in this match. I dont know Everleigh is he ok?
@GreenBlooded: It’s only a sprinkling of Old Boys from the Red-Black-White that complain. PR and RF in particular. All for a good cause….but it isn’t compulsory and never has been, call it a donation.
@Zulu: Not sure of the U15A but Eveleigh is doing the 1st team. Greenblooded can give us his thoughts 8-O.
When did WV play Hilton?
@umbiloburger: I cant see Ville 14’s or 16’s making an impression on GW.
15’s another story – but the 1sts I’ll give it to GW on their fortress Dixons – you saw what Ville did to Kearsney on their OB day.
@GreenBlooded: Who are the Reffs for The Games on Saturday? The 2 standout games are going to be U15A and 1st teams.
@MikeSt: Meegevoel en sterkte aan jou en die seuns!
@MikeSt – Ons meegevoel met julle. Mag die Here Sy hand van vertroosting oor julle uithoe en julle vashou in die moeilike tyd…
@MikeSt: My meegevoel in hierdie moeilike tye.
Sterkte, ons dink aan julle
Dankie vir julle boodskappe manne waardeer dit opreg asook my 2 seuns.
Lekker dag verder
@Grasshopper: I believe there is a flue outbreak in the vile.
The junior matches should be interesting. Rankings mean nothing but with the GW U14 & U16’s ranked 1st in SA and the U15A 2nd, scalps could be on offer here. Going to be tough games.
@star: Westville have their best chance in a while, they certainly have the pack to get good front foot ball. I’m a little concerned about this one but Dixons is not a fortress for nothing…
As I predicted in the College/GW game the team that got good front foot ball and were able to exploit the width of Kings Park would dominate( and did they) The lesson for Westville is to not allow the likes of Palvie go forward ball (which they are able to do) and cut down the space of the GW backs who run hard( if not a bit lateral). Urgency/speed off the line is required and shape to counter that threat and it will be game on.
GW will have home ground advantage and OB support. Westville however are presented with a challenge and opportunity to turn a rival school over on ” their day”. These challenges are to be prized and not resisted . The last time this was achieved I think was College in 2009.
@Vleis: am I?
I like to think KES would have kept them to below 50 with a full team
They were unstoppable that day.
KES did bladdy well in almost beating Westville with half a team the following week.
It was played at Kearsney Astro I think…. Cyndi will know better – she was there.
@Roger: Yep, that is very difficulty to cope with….but was made significantly more difficult by a rampant Affie team.
Why are you in a MC shirt?
I’ve never been comfortable with the Green pants in past games – just did not look right
Green shoe laces a much better option !
@Gungets Tuft: looks like an astro, maybe 3 schools trust or Queensmead if it still exists…
@Gungets Tuft: that is a pile of kak! I don’t think 30 teams have ever played. E team is normal, so let’s say 23 is a good day, 25 or 26 games at a stretch. Not sure why only 4 teams in Under16 & 14, maybe intakes were small in those years….
@GreenBlooded: I think lumo green will go fine with the Glenwood colours. Don’t see the issue
@Cappie: Army regs, as jy van die skool se kant af kyk!
Just received from the school. The whinging can commence immediately.
======================================
Gate Entrance
Entrance on the Saturday will be a donation of R10 pp.
This day will once again be a fundraiser for the Jes Foord Foundation Rugby Against Rape Campaign. Glenwood 1st XV will be wearing lumo green laces.
Boys in uniform and OBA Members/Patrons with cards do not pay.
Wie sê hierdie is nie Affie plaas nie? Die stad het die plaas ingesluk, maar die stukkie plaas het behoue gebly. Loftus is later daar aan die regterkant gebou, en die grondpad voor die skool verby het plek gemaak vir ‘n baie besige teerpad.

@Grasshopper: That’s a good result for Glenwood. Kearsney are a very good side, College scraped a 1-0 against them, a 1-1 would have been a fairer result. College beat Glenwood 4-0.
Where was the match played?
@Gungets Tuft:
Haahahaha! Point made Mr Tuft
I guess when a bunch of boys who have played A team rugby for top primary schools throughout their lives all of a sudden find themselves in the under 14 C/D team, it can be demoralizing, and well, most will quit. It doesn’t matter to them that there are 3/4 teams behind them.
@Grasshopper: I don’t actually know what I’m trying to point out, I’m just surprised. As Rugger Fan says, these big derby days have a unique buzz because 1/2 the school or more is taking part. Please believe me, I’m not having a go at anyone, but it’s surprising to see the lack of participation. There is a brilliant sentiment on the Glenwood Rugby page … with that drive behind the sport, you always hope for the best.
“Rugby at Glenwood is the major sporting code. It is a sport that instils values such as integrity, sportsmanship, loyalty, discipline and hard work. Glenwood’s policy of participation in extra mural activities as well as the passion shown by the boys enables almost five hundred youngsters the opportunity of experiencing the ultimate team sport.
Glenwood fields thirty teams on a regular basis. This allows boys from all levels and ability to be part of this wonderful game. The sports department endeavours’ to provide games for all teams, this has allowed Glenwood to embark on tours out the province to play fixtures against some major rugby playing schools in South Africa such as Affies from Pretoria and Grey College from Bloemfontein.
The player base at other schools is diminishing at an alarming rate. Schools, educators and parents owe it to our children to provide them with an environment that will foster a healthy life style and the opportunity to experience a real childhood. Perhaps instead of instilling a win at all cost attitude we should rather emphasise the fun part of playing rugby.
At Glenwood we encourage full participation respective of ability; hence the U14M Team is just as important as the 1st XV.”
Sterkte daar aan MikeSt en sy gesin. Ons almal op die blog se gebede is met jou en jou kinders.
@Andre T: RIV – sterkte vir die familie, veral die kinders.
Glenwood win the Hockey Night Series – http://www.glenwoodhighschool.co.za/glenwood-win-night-league-final
#notjustaruggaschool
Rom Rom .. waar is jy? kom roer die water weer so bietjie!! of is jy ge-ban? hoop nie so nie!!
@Cappie:
Middelburg het n baie goeie span die jaar.. die 26-41 verloor teen HTS was nie one way traffic nie.. Middies was voor selfs in die 2 de helfde. Hulle het ook vir Witbank Tegnies verder gewen as ons (59-0 vs 48-10).. Al was die Rhino’s se 3 verlore nou teen Monnas, Garsies en HTS baie close.. bly n verloor n verloor en beteken dit ons het 3 van ons laaste 4 games verloor.. nie maklik om terug te bounch nie..maar ek glo hul sal . Coenie en die manne het karakter en BMT en die afrigters weet om die span te laat peak op die regte tyd!! en so 7/8 outjies was ook laasjaar in die span wat ook gesukkel het in die middel van die seisoen waar hul op n stadium 5 van hul 12 games verloor het en toe 5 in n ry gewen het..Eers Middelburg,toe HTS Middelburg, toe Kempies, toe Monnas en toe laastens die final gevat het teen Garsies! So dig deep Rhino’s .. ons weet jul kan opstaan en BAIE sterk eindig!!! just do it again……….
Baie sterkte en troos aan die Stassens!!!
@Andre T: My condolences to the family. I cannot imagine how hard it must be on Hendre, Mike and the rest of the family.
@kosie: Ex vrou
@Andre T: Is dit MikeST se vrou? Weet jy wat het gebeur? Bly hartseer
My innige medelye gaan uit aan die Stassen gesin en veral aan Hendre wie se ma vandag begrawe word. Ek dink aan jou Grootseun.
Rus in vrede mevrou
@Cappie: Jou woord mag dalk net die verkeerde betekenis he: hulle mag dalk net dink dat South African College High School daar is om gebyt te word! Dink nie dit is wat jy bedoel het nie.
@Rugger fan: All SACS are now forbitten.
@Cappie: If they have one more SACS in them – hopefully it’s when the rooinekke from Maritzburg visit them next term – and not this weekend
@Grasshopper: Hopefully not. In my experience, the fixtures the boys enjoy the most are those that a full and competitive. The buzz around the College fixtures at Kearsney, WV & PBHS was far more exciting and animated than for instance vs DHS where the A teams were getting a good going over – but the rest of the teams (and hockey) were pretty one way. Even the U14F team vs KES had a whole bunch of people cheering and more spectators than I’ve seen some B teams get on other days.
I hope this is not a trend appearing.
@Gungets Tuft: not sure, I’m not close enough to know. Lower team apathy maybe? I think that is what you trying to point out. Kids gatvol of the elitist approach and focus on A teams? Maybe local boys are stopping playing rugby due to imports…..I don’t know.
So the Snobs come to The Graveyard this weekend. Never an easy game.
If last week’s results are anything to go by…St Andrews are going to get a cricket score from Grey at Lower.
It will be interesting to see how QC do against a Hudson Park that hasn’t been bad at all this year.I expect them to win at The Rec, but not to run away with it.
My EC predictions:
QC by 10 or less
Grey PE by 40 plus
Dale by 10
Selborne by 40 plus
Marlow by 30
Grens by 50 plus
@Vleis: injuries are part and parcel of the game – everyone accepts that – but to lose half your team in the first half of the same game ? That’s properly unlucky.
Good luck Sat – hope it’s a great game
@Andre T: @Cappie: If Jeppe’s star fly-half is still injured come Saturday then I give them a 0.0% chance of beating Affies. If he is available, their odds increase to 2%. SACS have ensured that Affies won’t be caught sleeping again…and certainly not ‘op die Plaas’.
I hope that I’m wrong – maybe Ringo can put me in my place!
@Andre T: Affies mag net een keer SACS per jaar hê. And no smoking allowed on the farm!
Ek dink Jeppe gaan n SACS op Affies trek
@Bere73: Ek dink Helpmekaar sal baie goed moet wees, en Waterkloof baie swak as Helpies hierdie een wil wen.
My geld is op Monnas om EG te troef.
Ek kan nie sien hoe Middelburg eers naby Nelspruit gaan kom nie.
@LAEVELDER: Ek dog net jy is………Louis die Laeveld Leeu
@Gungets Tuft: Not only the U14’sbut U16 groups only playing to a D team too (U16 played to Es vs College) – and opens only to 8ths! They put in 10 teams vs College!
Is injury/attrition that bad? Sad for the Reunion day to miss out – as that was always the highlight of the year to play in.
@Andre T: @ROOIBUL:
Ons speel tuis teen MHS Rooibul!
Nie Louis nie Andre.. eks jou naamgenoot eintlik! Dink regtig Monnas gaan EG omdop hierdie keer.. al is dit in Boksburg!
Dis maar my call…… one man one vote
@Grasshopper: Boet, what’s up with the U14’s. Your reunion day, 4 teams. I think I count only 21 rugby matches and 12 hockey.
Will Westville be looking for fillers?
http://www.glenwoodhighschool.co.za/sites/default/files/Fixtures%20v%20Westville%20May%202015.pdf
@LAEVELDER: Monnas met 22? ????? Louis waar val jy uit?
@Andre T: Hoor daai manne van die midde ooste se baseball bats is geolie vir jou
Is Garsfontein alweer af die naweek?
Hulle kon seker maar n friendly teen Tuine gereel het.
@Rugbymal: Ek gaan Midde Ooste toe maar is nog nie seker van die ander
@LAEVELDER: Waar speel julle teen Middelburg?
Paar revenge games…..
My raaie:
Westville met 7
Monnas met 22
Dan dink ek Jeppes gaan n veel sterker Affiespan moeite gee..net omdat hul kan.. roep hom n suprise draw! al hoop ek Affies wen om n kans te staan vir top 5 aan die einde van seisoen
@Andre T: Waar saai julle die naweek uit?
dankie@andreT, sterkte dan aan monnas
@oldboy123: In die Midde Ooste
helpmekaar teen kloof gaan ‘n great game wees, en ek dink jeppe teen affies gaan net so groot game wees, goeie hardloop rugby, wie weet waar speel monnas en jansies?
@GreenBlooded: I’m impressed that you managed to arrange a bye for College for the Glenwood Old Boys day
@Bere73: braaf
@Andre T:
With the skoon-ma?
@Roger: Were they injured by the Affies pace bowlers?
@ Beet: the game is at KES, not St Alban’s.
@burra: St Charles play NW at Kingspark
@Roger: St Alban’s has had between 9 and 12 injuries the whole season – even the captain and vice captain were out against Jeppe on Saturday. The entire pack that completed the game was made up of grade 11’s. With only four open teams, St Alban’s are much more severely impacted by injuries than a macro school like KES.
That said, if St Alban’s can put up as gutsy a display as they did against Jeppe, your boys will have their hands full.
@Rugger fan: Oh no that was late and past my bedtime
@Andre T: 2000 – 2008 – 5th Ave
whew – bit of a break for KES (with due respect to St Albans and Vleis) – at last count 12 players out injured (thanks Affies!) – all bar two were taken out in the first half of the Affies game
Men vs Boys!
@Rugger fan: When did you live in Linden?
Maybe I saw you a couple of times at Gregory’s Cafe
@GreenBlooded: Epic?????? I’ve had showers more epic
@Lindenpa: Great for the boys to play on Ellis Park -but I trust the sense of occasion is not lost for the 2 sets of school supporters.
good luck to Linden (my old home suburb) – seems like they are having a great season.
Wil n paar klippe in die bos gooi…..Helpmekaar gaan Waterkloof wen…..EG gaan Monnas weer stamp…hierdiekeer met meer as 10 punte
en die wedstyd van die naweek gaan Nelspruit teen Middelburg wees….Nelspruit gaan hom net net vat!! 
I can’t think of a bigger game in KZN this year. HC/MHS or any of the MC clashes (apart from the return MC/GW clash on a school field
) could come close
Bastion v Linden to be played at Ellispark on Saturday. Game starts at 15h00 and is a curtain raiser for the Lions v Waratahs.
@GreenBlooded: Agreed, maybe the biggest game of the year in KZN! Our friends in the midlands might disagree though.
Glenwood vs Ville on Dixons on Old Boys Day. Going to be epic!!
@ROOIBUL: Sorry but valid excuse is no fixture list provided by HTS Middelburg
Jeppe vs Affies gaan n goeie game wees dink Affies gaan te veel skietgoed he vir hulle.
Monnas vs EG dink Monnas gaan die een maklik wen.
Dink die ander games gaan redelik gaan sonder upsets.
Great fixture list for KZN let me roll my bones again
Cilfton by 20
Hilton by 15
Glenwood by 5
Campbell by 20
SCC at home vs NW, close game. SCC by 3
Kearsney by 25
House by 20
my game of the weekend is Monnas vs EG Jansen behind monnas for this one
Beet HTS Middelburg against HTS Witbank
College with a BYE this weekend
