@beet: Thanks beet. Clear as mud
@Maroon: i see that Beet has created a new thread with the latest rankings
thanks though 
@phat55: I am sure that he will send it to Beet today. He is a friend of mine and just sent me the provisional ranking to have a look at. He normally sends it to Beet, once finished. He does not publicise it elsewhere. What is your e-mail address?
@Maroon: you perhaps have a link to the latest BHP rankings???
Ja these tables only measure schools relevant to the games they play against other schools on their table.
In KZN it is significant because each year an award gets handed to the top school based on how they perform against the other top schools in KZN.
These tables above are therefore not overall rankings as they only take some of the games into account.
What I will update is the table on overall records, but again those are not rankings.
The new BHP rankings differs substantially from these as it takes into account games against teams from other regions and their perceived strengths.
I would recommend one also take into account their results against top opposition in other regions, as sometimes they schools don’t all play each other, but they might have a mutual competitor in another region.
In the Noordvaal region, things should not differ a lot from the following:
Waterkloof
EG Jansen
Affies
Garsies
Monnas
HTS Middelburg
Kempton Park
Nelspruit
Menlo Park
Jeppe
KES
Pretoria Boys High
Transvalia
Eldoraigne
Centurion
In the FS/NC
Grey
Cherries
Noord-Kaap
Jim Fouche
HTS Louis Botha
Voortrekker
Diamantveld
Fichardtpark
Sentraal
AHS Kroonstad
Hentie Cilliers
Quick disclaimer – I am not complaining about the rankings – lovely to see College top of the pile – Ek se maar net!!!
Well on one of my previous posts I said that Waterkloof and EG Jansen seems to be the front runners in the Northvaal for 2014. Hopefully they will have the opportunity to meet each other in the Beeld trophy to determine nr 1
Interesting log – but I think CharlesZa has a point – perhaps a BHP ranking should also apply here – in KZN not all these teams play one another – (College don’t play St Charles and Port Natal) – on the BHP scale College would end up with only 3 match points for the NW game so far. If we use BHP that would put GW in the lead on 3,5 with Kearsney second on 3,15 and then College and House on 3 – Again, the different categories for these schools make the difference
BHP going to bring out ranking again? Reckon it will create quite a bit of chatter.
Beet – can you explain how games played are calculated?
Including the Stirling game, Dale’s played 6 games against EC opposition, 4 of which are Border schools. Selborne has played 5 (2 against Border schools)
