There should be two very good games on in the Young Guns competition today. Tuks takes on the Pukke in a battle for top spot in their pool.

The Shimlas from UFS should comfortably beat Wits in today’s other game, meaning that the loser of Tuks versus Pukke will find themselves relegated to third in the pool after today’s round.…
