@Dale College Per Ardua Ad Astra: The boys will need to put this loss behind them and come out firing against Hudson to set up a grand showstopper against QC the following week.Hopefully Hudson’s result against Grens is a reflection of how poor Grens was rather than Hudson’s performance. Otherwise, it may be a long afternoon.
@Playa: Yup, beaten by a much better team! onwards and upwards
@Rugger fan: Face. The other oke used his head.
Well done Selborne. We were outplayed by a superior side. I thought we lacked some spark, and Kwanda was definitely missed as he has the ability to provide that in abundance. We’ll just have to wait for May 2016 for that 100th win then…
Heads up boys, let’s round off the season with 2 wins!!!
@Gungets Tuft: So your son started using his head finally
@the professor: Sorry, I don’t, and the long weekend will mean the school will only publish about Wednesday. All I have is what the Tribune printed. 2nds 3-68, 3rds 10-12, 4th 0-26, 5th 15-31, 6th 20-5, 7th 3-40, 8th 0-31, 9th 10-49. 16A 0-53, 15A 7-55, 14A 14-57.
I can report that Mr Waters was striding the campus with a smile from ear to ear (as only he can) after a narrow win for the mighty mighty U14E side.
The hockey you’ve seen. Happy to report an unbeaten season for the excellent 3rd side. They’ve got the core of last years side and have been an absolute pleasure to watch, the most fun I’ve seen boys having on a sports field. Grey gave them the best workout they’ve had since College lost to them in Bloem last year, my son has ended up with a massive shiner after colliding with the boy we hosted.
@Gungets Tuft: Hey GT, are you by any chance able to post the results down the line for all the Grey vs Maritzburg Rugby games yesterday please. I did see the hockey results on the College Hockey Facebook page but the rugby ones are seldom posted for all to see. Hoping you can help mate.
@Vyfster:
@umbiloburger: Yes the schools mentioned in my previous post
@Vyfster: Ten spyte van die telling, BV het glad nie goed gespeel nie, veral nie in die 1ste helfte nie – die rustydtelling was 5-3 vir BV.
Randburg was net nog swakker, en ek dink nie die Jhb grootskole baat enigsins deur nie Helpmekaar te speel nie – hulle spelers word nie “battle hardened” nie. En natuurlik was die hoë temperatuur weereens BV se speler van die wedstryd.
Ek dink nie BV sal Potch Gim Saterdag in toom kan hou nie.
@Frik: Sorry, but I meant outside schools like GW where all teams travel.
@Pinotage: Sjoe, dit was ‘n close een tussen Grey en Maritzburg.
@beet…Ben Vorster 48-25 Randburg (not 31-22)….I beseech thee….people might think it was close, next thing you might start to hear dark mutterings about ‘Limpopo refs’…..lol….can’t really argue knowing the correct score, it would sound ridiculous ( yeah we lost by 23, but we wuz robbed by ref..hehe)
@umbiloburger: Not sure what you mean by interchanges. You’ll have to excuse me, I’m just a dof boertjie trying to sound clever..
If you mean playing schools not in our area, the answer is quite a few. Started of the year by playing Paarl BH in Porterville, also played Boland Landbou and Outeniqua
@Frik: He is a solid player. Your facilities at Framesby are really good. Out of curiosity, how many other interchanges do Framesby have?
@Frik: the scores were close across the board. Framesby is in good health to keep our A sides that close.
Mafu didn’t blow me away watching SA Schools vs Wales, but hey ho!
@umbiloburger: It was great hosting Glenwood. Saturday was a glorious day in PE and we were entertained to great rugby throughout the day. Even though we lost all the matches I am proud of the way our teams performed.
Congrats to Glenwood on their performance, we were beaten by a better team on the day.
On a side note, how Palvie did not at least make the SA A side is beyond me. Anyways he’s still got next year..
@GreenBlooded: It was close. Perhaps not the freedom the CJ offered in that match but certainly the same fire from both side. That College scored 17 unanswered points in the second half made it that much more challenging for the heart. I hope the video is available, you would need to watch it.
@Gungets Tuft:
You and me both!! I left College at about 10.30 – pre-test match lunch with some clients, a good couple at Rovers and then into the Tank. In retrospect it was a very bad decision. How did it compare with the 44-40 match for intensity?
Just two points, it could have been a win so nearly in the end….having said that I have absolutely nothing but praise for the boys when the effort was like yesterday’s full of heart and commitment for the jersey and your team mates. Win or lose the guys can be very proud.
I had the unfortunate experience of sitting in the stands near a Grey mom who knew far more than the ref and bad mouthed him and College for the whole game. When our no. 13 scored a brilliant skillful try she voiced it to all around her that it was of course because he is an “aap”- truly disappointing!
The Grey junior teams have such well coached backline skills and are always aware of the ball and their players around them, if only the Boks could have had that and of course the College 1st XV commitment.
Sounded like the Affies vs Glenwood game, close but no cigar! Glenwood have a very tough ask traveling up to Bloem next week after having travelled to Framesby this week…
The GW/FRAMSBY match was a cracker. All the games were close and fast. Marius Jonker was doing TMO at the EP/Lions game and refereed the U16A game which was great. He capped some abuse from a spectator in the 2nd half, which he dealt with. The guy doing the abuse…..the 1st team referee.
Eish…..that was as bad as me trying to give advice to the Russian Syncro team.
Framsby play a superb brand of rugby and their defense was solid. They did well to contain the U14A &15A teams.
@Pinotage: Goldstones has seen some epic and classic matches. For sheer drama and schoolboy adventurous rugby yesterday’s match makes my list. Brilliant advert for rugby all day, and topped off by the last match. I wish that one had been televised, it would certainly have drawn more fans than the display we saw from players and spectators at Kings Park later.
Sorry we didn’t catch up at all during the day, it turned out to be a lot more rushed than I expected, having to get to the Tank by 4 didn’t help. I should rather have stayed at College
@Pinotage: Was a great day of rugby against a great school. True school boy rugby.
@Gungets Tuft: What a game. Hats off to the M/berg boys for their sheer guts and determination. We will take the win but I was immensely impressed with the comeback of the College boys and with the spirit on display at Goldstones.3
College 34 – Grey College 36. Heart stopping match on Goldstones. Beet will write his report.
1ste Garsies 48-36 Nellies ft
1ste HTSM 33-18 Menlo
EG Jansen 26 – Waterkloof 22:: absolutely insanely intense to watch such a close and tough encounter: EG Jansen missed their SA schools players today:
@rugbyfan: Framesby will never “dodge” any game, if we did not have a fixture against any school like Dale or Queens there is probably a valid reason, such as number of teams for example. Framesby has approximately 500 boys of whom about 160 play rugby, accross all age groups.
Dodge sounds like being scared. I think our fixture list speaks for itself. In spite of not even being in the top 50 according to any of the rankings, we played many of the top teams, including nr 1. If there is one team in SA willing to play anyone it is Framesby.
I read an e-mail from our old boys association which implores us to behave tomorrow when we are in the queer part of ” Houghton ” when we all know that school is in Yoeville. I have to admit that I am very nervous in fact petrified we just have lost too many players this season. This also is the last game of their season and for many their matrics the can restore a dominance their school so enjoyed through the history of tomorrow’s fixture. They might shade it tomorrow as they take on our depleted side. But the love and pride we display will never be drowned out ….. For the brave nothing is too difficult get them boys
@BoishaaiPa: hahahahaha!
@Playa: One of my very best friends were at school in PJ for a while..The were very competitive in the 70’s and early 80’s…another old friend of mine is an ex VG and Rhodes Univ girl…back in PE now after many years in Londen…She use to tell me some very interesting stories of the VG girls!…lol
@BoishaaiPa:
The “boere” vs the “rooinekke”….those must have been interesting encounters.
I know very little (nothing to be exact) about PJ Olivier. All I know is they used to host the Grahamstown Eisteddfod…and that was our only link to the VG girls as we didn’t play Greame. We were very deprived in Grahamstown…when we played St Andrews we had to put up with the DSG girls whose school uniform was a turn off in itself…and then the snobby KC girls who saw us as little gold diggers…which we probably were to be honest
@Queenian: @Playa: In my days we often played PJ Olivier from Grahamstown…They did not have bad teams, but they disappeared of the radar completely. Our biggest rivalry wasn’t against Daniel Pienaar in those days either but against Muir College. …The “boere” vs the “rooinekke”…the boer war all over again.
…That was usually the last game of the season and the fields were packed. (Muir was still playing on what is now Brandwag fields) They only moved later to their new premises. Muir had some pretty hot teams in the early 80’s with Garth Wright, Turners, etc playing. Cant remember all the names now!,,,getting to old!
@BoishaaiPa: It shouldn’t be an issue. Dale and Queens play Kingswood, who on a good day will have 10 teams, same as Greame…and the EL co-eds that play all the colleges. Maybe it’s just an issue of timing…there just isn’t space to fill those fixtures in either schools’ programmes. Brandwag are just too tough a bunch to avoid any fixture.
@BoishaaiPa: Agree with you there living in Uitenhage Brandwag does not dodge anybody but will agree with Rugbyfan on the Danial Pienaar and Framesby part.
Brandwag is well run and the ethois of the school very good. I do know there has being efforts in the last few years between Brandwag and Queens to get a fixture going so lets see.
@rugbyfan: I heard it was the other way around…They want to play but cant provide enough teams for the Border schools…Brandwag does play St Andrews on a regular basis, but they don’t play Grey PE either because of the team thing. I very much doubt those schools try to avoid a fixture…even in my days we would have loved to play them!
One thing after spending most my post school life in the Eastern Cape is for some reason and please tell me if I am wrong why Framesby/Brandwag and Danial Pienaar seem to avoid starting fixture against Selborne/Dale/Queens who I know have on numerous occasion’s tried to get them going.
Mind boggling.
And as such Marlow is very guilty of this as well.
Good to see Glenwood are playing Framesby looks like it is become a regular fixture.
Although I am surprised that Glenwood are choosing Framesby and not say Grey PE who do not have a fixture for this week of the year or maybe somebody like Selborne/Queens/Dale as Framesby 1st teams are usually competitive but the other schools mentioned above would give them much better competition in all the other teams.
Dankie
@Skoorsteen: The 1st XV game is at 11:30
Hoe laat speel Kloof teen Eg
@Rugger fan: @Cappie: I guess much like when MC play Westville (non-first teams i.e)
@Rugger fan: strangely, although they appear similar, they can easily be defirentiated when they play against one another.
It was a little tough on the eyes watching PBHS / Maritzburg College from across the field (at least PBHS 1st wears black shorts).
I pity the spectators for all the other games – as PBHS & Affies wear very similar jerseys – and both have white shorts! Must lead to a few poor passes and decisions in over the years?
The weather forecast for PMBurg on Saturday is 31 degrees! So pretty warm!
@Gungets Tuft: You are actually right, Hats off to PBHS for showing heart. I just hope they can lift their game, so it will not be a massacre.. One of the biggest schoolboy rugby games in SA, can become one of the biggest mismatches in 2015. On the eastern side of Pretoria EG Jansen will face Waterkloof 11h30 on at Klofies. Could be a cracker but without EG Jansens two SA schools players, it is not going to be an easy game. Then Garsfontein vs Nelspruit might also be a cracker. Rugbyman do you know the time of kick off at Garsies?
@jakes: PBHS would never call off a game, or withdraw teams, in the face of a possible loss. They might lack some manpower this year, but they’ve never lacked heart.
@jakes: The SA schools players will all be out – but I agree that Affies is likely to punch large holes in the PBHS backline.
Good luck to the Candy stripers (and all the other guys in the other teams!)
Is Pretoria Boys high going ahead with their game against Affies? I can see this game might even be stopped early due to a hiding PBH will receive. This used to be one of the biggest games of the year, this year it will be a complete mismatch unfortunately
