@cappie. Wat is die primere doel van sekondere onderrig? Dit is tog akademie. Edwards se siening is dat skole rugby amateur rugby is en daarom dat dit nog steeds ‘n onderwyser se voorreg is om die seuns af te rig. Die uitwerking in my beskeie opinie van profesionele skole rugby( beurse, profesionele afrigters, ” profesional conditioning coaches etc) het die potensiele gevolg van ‘n wen ten alle koste houding, want hoe regverdig jy die kostey andersins? Dit plaas onnodig druk op kinders, want dit is wat hulle is, om te ” perform”. As hulle nie perform nie is hulle hulle beurse kwyt en sit mens met die situasie dat pappie weer skoolkostes moet betaal, en kan hy moontlik nie die koshuis fooitjies betaal nie wat die gevolg kan he dat die 15 jarige profesionele rugby speler weer skole sal moet verander om dit vir pappa se sak meer bekostiger te maak…….en dit is hoekom ek anti profesionele afrigting ens op skoolvlak is.
As daar een spannetjie is wat nie sy plek verdien nie is dit Boland Landbou op nommer 40. Die volgende is vier van die laaste vyf wedstryde wat Landbou gespeel het.
Verloor met 2 punte teen Paarl Gim (4de op log)
Verloor met 1 punt teen Wynberg (8ste op log)
Verloor met 4 punte teen HJS Paarl (5de op log)
Wen Stellenberg 33-3 (30ste op log)
@Playa: Why? I thought that half of GW are Dutch and the other half are Xhosa speaking.
Hopefully a clean memorable game up between Glenwood and Affies. I know just like College the Glenwood boys will be extra motivated to beat Affies. Being at Affies it will be that much harder to come away with a win
@Playa: Maybe it’s because they playing their brothers & cousins from up that way
@Playa: Verseker iets om na uit te sien. Ek weet hulle gaan totaal gemotiveer wees, sonder twyfel.
@Cappie: Judging from those results, looks like Glenwood’s Achilles heel has been Afrikaans schools this year….now playing AFRIKAANSE SEUNS HOERSKOOL…mmmhhh
@Gungets Tuft: Suffink is really wrong with the plateau dwellers at Affies. Every team is milking them. They were very lucky to beat Jeppe and Centurion, otherwise it could have been worse, and not that it is not bad enough. It may be time to rethink the way they do things at the plateau. To stick with teachers only to coach the dwellers may be something of the past. Professional support may became handy at that level. They had an extraordinary team last year and talent got them through. Talent cannot win you every time. During an average year, you need to be able to adapt and come up with plans of making a success.
Affies have enormous talent at the under grades at the moment, but personally I think they should step up to a next level next year if they want to become the number one again. They should blend the talent with professional training to become superior. By not doing that, they allow the other schools to level the field with them.
@Tjoppa: As usual, your intellectual contribution- outstanding. Where did I mention GCB? If they had 9 players in the SA squad,even 4, despite not having lost a match so far, I would have also asked questions because they do not have some of the outstanding individual players of the past. But as a team, at least they contribute.
@Grasshopper: Not wanting to put the mockers on, but the Affies team is not short of talent, so when they click they are going to look good. It’s a matter ot time – some people say next year, but it can happen at any time. Good luck though, we need the finfoots to win rather than the plateau dwellers. Follow a Twitter account called AffieOuer – suffink like that – will keep you up to date with the day.
@Babbelas: Nie so seker daarvan nie,… SWD het bewys in die begin rondtes hoekom hulle in die finaal moes wees,…jammer oor die insinking in die finaal.
@Maroon:
yup……Joa the lock’s hand…..Meyer the captain’s nose is broken & Van Tonder the flank got hurt during training in the week,think its his ankle or something.
Not easy losing your captain especially an influential one,but hey the replacements will need to step up

Glenwood by verre die gunstelinge!
@kattel: Dis nie ‘n kwessie van erkenning gee vir die OP nie, hulle het die kans gebruik en goed gespeel! Nie hulle skuld dat die skeidregter ‘n fout gemaak nie maar ek voel net dat die beste span nie gewen nie! Bulle het daar na baie maklik afgereken met die ander 2 spanne en sou dieselfde met SWD doen!
@Gungets Tuft: a stumble against Kempies this weekend will be welcomed in this part of the world !
@phat55: beserings?
@Gungets Tuft: Big if that, it’s Affies in Pretoria at altitude, tough to win that even in a weak year for them. It also depends on if our key players are back…..good luck vs PBHS!
Daar is net een span wat verdien het om die CW te wen,..en dis OP. Ek het elke game weer gaan kyk en glo dat geen span OP sou klop nie . SWD op hul beste sou nie OP geklop het op die dag nie. Hulle het mooi aanskoulike rugby gespeel met weldeurdagte planne . Aan al die OP manne en die afrigterspan,…julle het gekom om die week te wen,.en het ,…GREAT!!!!
@Babbelas- dit is jammer dat jy nie erkenning aan OP wil gee nie.Die drie van die Bulle wat nie toegeken is nie was nog vroeg in die wedstryd.Die OP mannetjies het guts gewys net soos Grey High teen Paul Roos en glo my al het Bulle daar gedruk sou OP dit nogsteeds deurgetrek het.
Ek sal toegee dit was nie hul beste wedstryd nie maar as hulle op dag 4 teen Bulle gespeel het sou OP hulle ook met 15+ punte gewen het net soos hulle SWD outplay het in finaal en dit voorgekom het asof SWD nie opgedaag het nie.
Gee die OP ten minste erkenning en moenie soos die All Black sewe span verskonings soek nie.
@Gungets Tuft:
PRG are without their lock & flank & 8th man(also the captain) for the game against Bishops tomorrow.Still back our boys to pull off the win though 8)
@BOG: Either Bog you are right, everybody hate Grey, or your team is winning with the help of refs and bribes. You pick the finger. 1,2 or 3
@GreenBlooded: I suspect that if Glenwood beat Affies this weekend, even if College beat PBHS, then those positions will reverse again. Wynberg beating Rondebosch will do their ranking no good at all, but if Bishops find a rabbit (easily possible) against Paul Roos it will cause a big swing for those two.
Waterkloof don’t want to stumble against Kempton becuase that will drop them right down the rankings.
The battle for KZN is over, those rankings are cast in stone with the Round Robin being the only way of really ranking. The Goldstones match next week is for pride, going to be epic.
@Babbelas: Ja ek hoor. Punt is dat daar wel so paar Bulle is wat gelukkig is. Maar, hulle kies nie hulself nie. Ek dink tog so paar manne van die sentrale streek is baie ongelukkig om nie in die span te wees nie
@kosie: Bulle was ongelukkig om 1 ste CW game te verloor teen OP met ‘n bedenklike drie in die laaste minuut. ‘n Drie deur Bulle is ook nie toegeken nie en die skeidsregter het na die tyd die Bulle afrigters om verskoning gevra vir die fout.
Dus kon die Bulle baie maklik in die finaal gespeel het en dan sou niemand kla oor die 9 spelers in die SA Skole span nie!
@BOG: I most certainly do not agree with all the Bulls players. In fact, some selections from the Bulls bogles the mind. However, the players don’t choose themselves.
Therefore, I support the team.
Die Top 50 weerspieel net die allemintige F-op wat gemaak is met die kies vd SA skolespan.
@BOG It must be the only place on earth when proven statistics of players does not count at all. If……. for whatever reason the team are not selected on CW performance only, then who judge the boys on past performance that are spread over a vast area in SA. Then…. if it is CW only……why does the team selection look so suspicious towards a certain union. I’m sick of “pussyfooters ” on issues regarding all the so called sensitive “crap” that are surrounding our everyday lives,… if you can bullshit yourself and live with it fine,..I refuse to keep quiet. The SA school selection side is not representative of the brilliant talent that we have in SA,..shame on the selectors and the rugby administrators ( bullshitters).
@kosie: Are you REALLY being honest with yourself? Rugby is a team sport and and if individual players have so far been unable to contribute significantly to a TEAM, then Im afraid—. Good and well to maintain a fake silence, but there are times in life, where people should show the courage to speak out. The world around us, is in a sorry state and people keeping quite, is partly to blame for that.
@BOG: Clearly the individual players are more than the sum of the school teams they represent. We will never all agree with selections made, but we are all proud enough to support the team as selected.
Going to watch the big derby in Welkom the weekend. Bound to be a good clash.
College okes gonna love that. Glenwood okes gonna hate it. Me – time to find those bipolar pills………
The blue bull schools with 9 players in the sa school’s side should be dominating the list, not so?
Great to see Wynberg back in the top 10, but with it being so close and big games against Bishops and Paarl Gym in consecutive weeks, I’m not sure if they will be able to maintain their position to the end of the season.
@Knight_CHS07: Ja, no, the cheese boys seem to always have our number. That should be a great flowing game, given that both schools like to throw the ball around.
Enjoy the Baboona-Kudu encounter. I’ll be in Paarl watching the 4th-5th playoff thanks to BHP
@Playa: Big games in EL, KWT and PE this weekend. I’m going to the Selborne vs Queen’s game.
Tough fixture for Dale i must say, the cheese boys won’t make it easy
The battle for number 32 ( Dale vs St Andrews) is on this weekend!
Caaaamaaaan DAAAAAAALE!!!
