#375 Rugbymal

@akw: Dink as n coach nou nog op vaste fasette moet werk sal ek geworried wees. Sienende dat jy so neerhalend is in jou kommentaar.

Quote “@jakes: If the coaches have to teach players to catch and pass a ball at this stage of their school career I would be worried.” Unquote

Arrogance in commenting should not be made if and when wearing dual loyalty / support on your jersey………………….. that’s clearly why you “choose” the Grey jersey as it will give you 50/50 bragging rights……

@jakes: I think you should stay away from predictions and rather say your say after the games……….. THE EGJ guys did well but you do need a kicker to win close matches. 9 points is just to much (excluding the last penalty missed in terrible weather conditions)

@BoishaaiPa: As ek reg onthou, was dit jy wat vir ons n analise gegee het van die persentasies van seuns in elke skool wat aan rugby deelneem. Ek en Babbalaas het nou net elders daaroor gepraat. Wil jy nie asseblief van jou kosbare tyd, dit weer vir ons “pos” nie Ek dink di nogal relevant, en al is die syfers n bietjie verouderd

@akw: You are absolutely correct. One can also add Boland Landbou and Oakdale. And I never see arrogance from their supporters. Ploegman a case in point.

The season is getting very interesting. I am concerned about the number of injuries though. Too much and too intense gym training perhaps?

@jakes: I thought EG made most of the play and deserved a better result. I don’t think it was superior talent or skill that won it for GCB, just the fact that Grey don’t believe they can lose. Self belief was the difference. EG can take heart, they will turn over many good teams this year.

After attending this festival I must compliment the guys from Kearsney as this is the best festival around not only from a logistical but also a team / game / support perspective.

Even though there were losers and winners I think that the quality of rugby made rugby the only winner in the Easter tournament.

Not one team did not do themselves proud and the manner in which they portrayed their skills were just magnificent.

Well done to all concerned.

@jakes: EG Jansen is clearly making their mark and they deserve respect for punching way above their weight when the number of available boys is considered.

Just 2 points to consider: 1) It is never over until the fat lady sings. AND: 2) Never count your chickens before they are hatched.

All the best for the rest of your season.

Instead of predicting big victories and claiming moral victories a supporter should support their team with humility, in victory and defeat, and hope that it has a period of sustained excellence that will establish it as a rugby stronghold.

@BoishaaiPa: No doubt that Boishaai also has strong 2nd teams.

I think this year is the year of the Cape. Grey will struggle to beat Boishaai and Paul Roos this year if their injured players don’t recover.

However, Paarl Gim seems to be quietly building for that top spot this year. Any team that can beat Pietersburg by 70 points (and not by just 40) must be awesome.

@jakes: No one is taking away from EG Jansen. But you are missing a point. They did not shake GCB as you suggest. As I pointed out earlier, there have been many seasons where GCB had to fight for every win. You had your opportunity today, and you did not take it and it may be a long time before you get one again. What makes GCBs achievements so significant, is that every school they come up against, comes at them highly motivated and with the kitchen sink. And as someone has suggested, you only stop playing them when they have left the field and in the shower

Well after today Grey College will know there is a new threat called EG Jansen from Boksburg..I see most are arousing themselves regarding Grey College’s performance, which I do not take away from them..they indeed have been SA’s nr 1 forever..BUT not 1 word about EG Jansens performance..also 3 tries against two in favor of EGJ, if only they converted 1 all would have sang a different tune now..well done EG Jansen, you rocked Grey College’s foundations today..even if by school size you have a third of the boys Grey College have with no boarding facilities. To me, and I believe to some non traditionalist bloggers, EG Jansen were the true winners of this game when it comes to heart and guts.. And most of the traditional bloggers who do not give others their place under the sun and can not give recognition when it is due, they are the real losers on this blog..no wonder MikeST left this blog, I begin to share his sentiments..Good luck and well done EG Jansen, you will still rock many a traditional schools foundations in future..you can be proud of your performance today..

@Djou: Garsies was never in the game. This is what I wrote on the St Johns thread:

“In the scrums Boishaai placed Garsies under great pressure, and in the lineouts the only balls Garsies won cleanly was the ones Boishaai decided not to contest on. This negated the Garsies backline completely, they did not get any front foot ball and in most cases received man and ball at the same time. With zero time and space they could do nothing.”

@Djou: I don’t disagree with the Cherries abilities..they will give most 1st teams a good go..but I think you might underestimate the strength of a Boishaai and Paul Roos seccies as well..we will always struggle in Bloem..our boys are not used to the thin air and hard fields and as such, always find it difficult to maintain their level of play in the last 20 minutes. I have seen games that was close being lost by 30 points or more in the last 20 minutes. Combined with the travel and fatigue it is a mountain to climb to get a win in Bloem. The same happens to Grey when they travel down to Paarl or Stellenbosch… the games are much more even, but I still think it is easier to play at the coast than inland. The cherries haven’t won in Paarl since 2008 …That being said, we were only competitive with the cherries in Bloem in 2011 when we lost by 1 point due to a very late pebalty..the rest of the Bloem games we got hammered!

And by the way, congrats with Boishaai’s big victory over Garsfontein. The score implies Garsies was never in the game, but I might be wrong. Maybe akw can provide more info. I always thought Garsies won’t have a strong team this year, but they should be back with a bang.

The depth in Grey will carry them through until the injured returns..sometimes those returning from injury don’t necessary make it back into the 1st team..I have seen it happen before. Your squad system with fresh players coming on the last 20 minutes is also a big plus factor in normal interschools matches…couple of fresh legs can make a huge difference in securing a game. Most other schools don’t use that advantage.

Reading some of the comments here, its not the first time in GCBs illustrious rugby history, that for the most of the season, they have to dig deep for every win. Someone spoke of —-guts the other day. Its a word that has been synonymous with GCB for more than a century and that is why they have maintained a winning ratio of 90%+ for a hundred years . There have been many years, where they have not had the best of teams, but Grey guts, honour and the blue jersey, have carried them through. Hopefully, some of the injured will be back after the holidays and the struggles will become less intense. You did all your supporters proud, because virtually every non-Grey supporter, present, is continuously hoping for an upset.Vive la Grey !!

Selborne play an attractive brand of rugby but little errors are affecting their continuity. Their forwards are making an effort to be physical when cleaning.

Very entertaining match between Westville and SACS. Westville seemed to gain early ascendency via their pack. They also got their backs more involved and looked to be heading for a comfortable win. SACS had other ideas tho and when they got the slick handling working they scored 2 very good tries to actually go into the lead against exceptions. Westville dug deep and closed the game out well. Flyhalf Neil van Rooyen did really well for Westville along with a few others. SACS wing Ruitumetse Magoje impressed with his runs.

Ek het voor die wedstryd met my groot vriend FA Meiring gepraat wat in Paarl is met sy jongste seun en voorspel dit sal Affies wees met 20. Neem niks weg van SACS nie maar ek dink Affies was hulle eie grootste vyand op die dag. Met al daai balbesit kon hulle nie afrond nie.

BuffelCM…Weereens net so bietjie draak gesteek met die onder 14’s. Ek het so bietjie met ouers gepraat by die Francois Swart week, vernaam ook na djou ae vraag na Cravenweek spelers. Ek kan nou met alle sekerheid sê dat daar geen Cravenweek spelers in Affies se omder 14 span is nie. Die ouers is egter ongelooflik baie trots op die onder 14 span wat elke keer as “under dogs” op die veld draf en hulle man kon staan teen Boishaai sowel as Paul Roos. Hulle noem dit Affies Guts, iets wat in die seuns ingeburger word sodra hulle in Graad 8 die skool inkom. Dan wat ek ook kan berig is dat daar wesenlike beserings is by die onder 16 Affies span, die voorry, slot en losskakel is op die krukkelys vir die seisoen. Ek is ook meegedeel dat die 1ste span wat teen SACS gespeel het wesenlik verander was van die span wat teen EG Jansen gespeel het omdat daar ‘n beleid op die week bestaan dat al die skole hulle reserwes ook moet speel. Kan julle egter verseker dat geen ouers enigsins iets wou wegneem van SACS se wen nie. Nou sien ek ook uit na die Noord-Suid kompetisie by Menlo.

Ten spyte van die inkopies van Menlo af, is hierdie ‘n besondere span..groote, vaardigheid en baie spoed.

I still say that EG Jansen had one of their worst performances of the year against Affies..it was just a bad day for them on the park as the would say..the score inflates Affies strenght a bit and does not reflect the true strenght of EGJ..it is gonna be an interesting year

I dont know for how long the ban to play them will last. It might just be until JB leaves school but then a similar thing happened I think 15 years ago when a private school was involved and the ban still stand. That ban is for rugby only.

Wat die rugby uitslae aanbetref van die onder 14’s het ek nog nie van Kloof sin gesien het, jy het geblok oor Garsies sin en het ek gehoor Affies het pakslae gekry by Booishaai 29-17. Die Booishaai span het blykbaar goeie werwing gedoen onder die WP Cravenweek spelers, dus sal Affies nie te sleg voel oor die verloor nie.

Grey sal altyd die room van die Vrystaat Cravenweek span trek sonder om werklik werwing te doen, dus gaan dit seker maar oor ontwikkeling van onder 14 vlak boontoe. Dit blyk dat Garsies se strukture in plek is om nou jaarlilks mededingend te kan wees op senior vlak.

Dan in kort…ek het met De Meyer van Kloof gesels en het hy my meegedeel dat hulle nie Cravenweek spelers getrek het nie. Ek vermoed ook dat Menlo baie meer aggresief gaan bemark by hulle onder 15’s want hulle beleggings het nog nie dividende opgelewer nie, 3 van hulle eerste 4 wedstryde verloor, dus sal Kloof, Affies en Garsies maar op die uitkyk moet wees.

djou…ek dink daar sal maar gekyk moet word wat die ander uitslae is van die onder 14 toernooie om te kan bepaal of die inkopies die moeite werd was. Daar sal “sustainability” moet wees vir ten minste 5 jaar om ‘n gevestigde groep daar te stel wat kan deurkom om ‘n 1st span vir ‘n geruime tyd te vestig. Die vraag is of die persone wat betrokke is daai tipe finansiele commitment gaan maak? En dan sal dit bitter interresant wees om die sien watse benadering die ander skole gaan volg met hulle werwing vir 2016. Ek sou dink dat van die skole se werwing taktiek teen hulle gebruik kan en gaan word, want as jou kind nie gekontrakteer is op onder 14 vlak nie, kan ek net indink dat die skole ‘n benadering sal volg deur melding te maak op ope dae dat as jou seun nie gekontrakteer is nie, hy alreeds sal meeding vir ‘n plek in die B-span. Dit sal ouers 2 keer laat dink waar hulle hulle kinders gaan plaas.

@Hanswors: Ja Hanswors- jy is heeltemal reg. Hierdie Affies span is baie goed, baie van hul punte is aangeteken deur menige hanteringsfoute wat deur EGJ gemaak is.

Dit is ‘n bewys dat hulle baie goed afgerig word., JY MOET NIE SOVEEL FOUTE TEEN AFFIES MAAK NIE ANDERS WORD JY GESTRAF SOOS GISTER GESIEN>> Ek kan wel my hart hierop sit, dit was een van EG se mees teleurstellende vertonings die jaar en hulle het so bietjie die handdoek ingegooi die laaste 20 minute na nog ‘n drie gedruk is agv hanteringsfoute….en toe breuk die damwal..Dis nie hulle karakter om handdoek in te gooi nie>> Vra maar vir Garsfontein en Rugbyman Hulle is baie sterker as wat die scoreline wys dink ek..Hulle het hulself uit die game gespeel met net te veel foute. Miskien was hulle net te gretig om Affies te wen en die basics nie reg gespeel..Maar glo my, ek het hul afrigters al in aksie gesien en daar gaan hard gepraat en gewerk word. EGJ het ook twee van die grootstes in skolerugby direk na mekaar gespeel, Monnas en Affies..hulle sal hieruit leer en probeer regmaak wat hul verbrou het> Ek glo die 2 verlore teen Monnas en Affies so vroeg in die seisoen dalk nie “n slegte ding nie,hulle moes dalk bietjie afgebring word aarde toe om te besef daar le baie werk voor. Kom ons kyk hoe doen hul teen Grey College Maandag. maar sterkte Jansies vir 2015 verder, julle is ‘n rugbyskool met hart, dit kan ek wel se en hulle sal terugkom. 8)

@4×4: Die vraag is gevra waar die Blou Bulle o.13 Cravenweekspelers heen is. Ek dink die vraag is al ‘n week gelede beantwoord, maar gister bevestig. Grey o.14 het Menlo met 8-7 geklop en gister vir Garsies met iets soos 48-5. Nou, Affies en Waterkloof sê die spelers is nie by hulle nie en Rugbyman het voorheen herhaal hulle het nie juis veel Cravenweekspelers gekry nie. So, die antwoord is hulle is Menlo toe.

@Rugbyman: Julle onder-ouderdomsgroepe het bietjie vasgeval gister. Is dit ‘n geval van die impak van die ryery, of is dit maar net dat die ander beter is?

Well done Affies. I thought the Paul Roos score was a fluke – based on how Affies played in the first half and how Paul Roos scored tries from broken play in the second half.
However, at the same time, EG is not as weak as what the score suggests. Almost everything went wrong for EG.
But, in any given match it is about taking chances, and that is what Affies did emulating Paul Roos’ performance last week.
So, I reiterate, this Affies side is very good.

Affies and Selborne also very impressive for various reasons. Affies for staying calm and not wasting opportunities to turn possession into points with decisive play. Selborne for playing genuine running rugby and creating overlaps in midfield by combining speed with confident passing.

I was really impressed by SACS. I expected Dale to blow them away but SACS were just so efficient. They were well-organised and quick up on defence, their pack is light but worked as a unit.

Game of the Day for me was Westville vs Menlopark because it was so close and had a thrilling finish.

Time was up. Menlo just needed to get the ball off the park or cause a stoppage but continued to play. Eventually a loose-forward had the presence of mind attempt to hoof the ball out but he got too much height and not enough distance on the kick so it turned into an up-and-under which a teammate then attempted to catch from a position in front of the kicker.

The result was a penalty and Neil van Rooyen stepped up to slot this long range kick from an angle to win it. Last week Neil must have felt like a zero after the College match. Today he was a hero.

Just a word of warning:

I bumped into QC86 this morning before the Kearsney match and did my best not to seemed overjoyed by his words re Selborne: ” I don’t think they are ready yet…” in reference to gelling and peaking as a team. Talk about offering false hope!

All I can now advise is don’t ever play poker with that man!

After the Selborne Kearsney match receiving a Whatapp message containing a selfie of himself enjoying a cold one in the beer garden would not have seemed out of place.

Selborne figured out the code that unlocked the Kearsney defence in the second half and they looked really good. Their backs were stars particularly the midfield combo of Brits and Coetzer. Fullback Michael Botha also finished very well. Some of their forwards looked sharp as well. I could see why people rate the flank Nieuwenhuizen.

Framesby’s 126kg prop looked too slow & got pumped at scrumtime. Let’s just say Framesby are not where they were 2 years ago so not a great win, just a morale boosting win.

@Grasshopper: Palvie is so consistently good that one kinda expects it from him – great player!
The Framesby pack were actually smaller than Glenwood ?? Framesby seem to have a small team this year but half of the squad are U17, including their starting props – didn’t do too well at Pukke Skouspel either and might be struggling with too much rugby in a short period of time. Kearsney also seemed flat today after returning from Pukke.

@Pedantic: ok, can’t comment as didn’t see the game. Surely Palvie must get a look in for forward of the day with 3 tries. What is even more amazing is he is playing with a shoulder tear….the Glenwood pack monstered the bigger Framesby pack, especially at scrum time! The Affies lock & No7 stood out for me too!

@Grasshopper: Kearsney had a poor day at the office, without their midfield General Tedder, the backline defence was no-where. Selborne identified the weakness early and capitalised – Selborne a very good looking team, but Kearsney made them look better than they are with some very weak midfield defence.

Players that stood out for me today: Selborne #12, Westville #14 & 15, Affies #4 and HTS #6.

@Grasshopper: watched the Kearsney v Selborne match and there was one area of concern if i was a Kearsney coach…. the midfield got penetrated at will and with very little effort by the Selborne centres. Kearsney held their own upfront but it catches up with your forwards if you have to chase back the whole game. I stopped counting at 7 missed tackles in the midfield.

One other thing if Selborne can klap Kearsney like they did either Kearsney was poor on the day, Selborne are amazing or Kearsney only raise their game for derbies. When I watched Glenwood vs Kearsney, the Kearsney pack was getting smashed. Seems Selborne was obviously better up front. Also seems they didn’t miss Bossr at all….

@h2o: I agree, too much elusiveness & guile, not enough force. Glenwood needs a big and abrasive 12 to create the gaps for the backs. The backs are yet to click, but once they do it will be havoc! Liked the replacement forwards. Not sure where Arnoux Venter was, maybe left. Liked how the Glenwood front row buckled the massive Framesby props. Kloppers is a machine! They also need another line out option than Xaba. A good confidence boosting win for the Green Machine, hopefully more improvement going forward. Marco Palvie is something else, just brute force!

Valke seems you were right. Yo yo yo- This was unexpected..Well done to Affies. What a huge improvement from 2014-2015. Let me the first to acknowledge that I was completely wrong BUT also VERY VERY disappointed with all the handling errors on EGJ’s side. Just too many handling errors from the start and in vital moments caused them to play themselves out of the game.They were right up there at a stage in the second half with all that pressure, then the intercept try caused by another handling error broke their spirits seems like it. After that it seemed that Jansies threw in the towel and was a free for all for Affies..Oh boy the coaches will have a lot of work on their hands to make sure the handling errors are sorted out by both the forwards and the backline. Good luck forward to Jansies and Affies. I hope more games will be scheduled between the two schools in future.

@Pinotage: Baie dankie. Alhoewel die telling baie hoog is, kan EG Jansen nie afgeskryf word nie. Hulle skrumwerk was baie beter as die van Affies en hulle het drie vasskoppe gevat. Hulle was ook menigte kere op Affies se doellyn waarna hulle foute begaan het wat uitgebyt is deur Affies. Affies het so ook ‘n geel kaart gekry aangesien hulle die maul laat val het op hulle eie doellyn.

Sterkte vir EG met die res van die naweek, en ek weet hulle sal opstaan en regmaak na vandag se verbroude kans. Twee taai wedstryde wat vir hulle voorlê in Framesby en Grey. Moet nie vir EG afsryf nie!

Maybe Valke was right, leadership could be an issue. You need a strong leader to make a fight back possible.

@jakes: Swings and roundabouts mate, the older schools have all gone through peaks and troughs over 100 years and will do so for another 100 and more. The one thing the newbies cannot buy is history, tradition & memories. How old is EG? I think a little bit more respect for the schools that actually started rugby in the country might be better. EG SACS are the oldest playing school in the country, they have not been strong lately and might battle at Kearsney, but without SACS none of us would be playing the game today….

@jakes: EG had a great side when Estiaan was at lock and you had that great blonde fly half, forget his name. Since then they have been quite good. This year I’m not sure, what are your results so far. Affies by 20 would mean Affies will have to have a very bad day and EG on fire. Not many sides beat Affies by 20 or more……even in their weaker years…

@jakes: On that note I feel I need to intervene here…Just so set the record straight..last 6 years rankings

2009: KES No 7 – EG No 19
2010: KES No 27 – EG No 24
2011: KES No 5 – EG No 35
2012: KES No 13 – EG No 33
2013: KES No 71 – EG no 5
2014: KES No 28 – EG No 9

In the collective rankings over these 6 years..EG is No 13 and KES No 14…So much closer than you think and things have not changed as much as you think!..

Roger oh Roger. EG who? Let me give you a hint. It is that school who would have easily beaten your team by 60-70 points if they played’ EG who’ in the last 15 years. I know you might have been born a few years after KES was built so sorry to burst your bubble but things have changed. Unfortunately I can not recall seeing the team you representing in the top 10 in the last 30 years. Do they actually still play rugby? you must keep up with the times man..it is not 1950 anymore when there was only about 10 schools playing rugby which includes your school..

My previous post was just to get to bring things a little bit more into “prospective” as per my way of thinking off course. But we all know anything can happen on the day on a rugby field..I am glad Affies and EG Jansen gets a chance to meet again. I can recall Affies beating EG Jansen 19-15 the last time they met at Kearsney ( I speak under correction) it is always great to play Affies..a rugby day between Affies and EG Jansen on all levels, Junior and Senior teams would provide some fantastic competitive rugby. Unfortunately EGJ will only be able to compete with the A and B teams in the Juniors and 1st and 2nd teams at SNR level.

@jakes: I still feel that 20 points is ridiculous … EG will be strong this year, but 20 points over Affies is a bit of a mind-#### for most of us traditionalists.

Good luck either way – looking forward to a great game – game of the day IMO.

EG Jansen will win Affies by around 20 points, if not more. Some bloggers here obviously have no idea idea what is going on in schoolboy rugby, especially those with KES or College jerseys on or maroon SBR caps or maybe they still stuck in the traditional era.. Just to enlighten a few folk, in 2014 Affies had one of their weakest teams in years, with majority of their players in Grade 11 as per the bloggers. The very same year EG Jansen had one of the strongest teams in years, even in the country,with around 75% of their players also in grade 11. Now if Affies and EG Jansen were to meet in 2014, the score difference would have been around 30 points or more..So my common sense tell me if indeed some changes of gigantic proportions happened at Affies between 2014 and 2015, I do not see them beating EG Jansen this year..It migt take another year or two. Just my logical observation,but we will see tomorrow. Going to be a good one..

@star: Around the country, all festival fixtures are subject to some form of negotiation and often change along the way. There must be or have been opportunity for Westville to have a say in the scheduling. It would be no different to Hudson Park’s option exercised at Grey PE earlier this year.

I think the real answer re: the difficult fixture list lies in Westville have taken the Glenwood/Grey PE approach and set out to test themselves against the best whenever possible. The biggest test of the lot will no doubt be the inter-schools against Affies especially as far as the lower teams are concerned.

Westville’s real problem now is they are trying to congest everything into a season that effectively ends 4 weeks earlier than all the other big rugby schools.

I’d donate my baby making weapon to watch the GWD-Selborne game if it happens.
