The rivalry between Afrikaanse Hoër Seunskool and Grey College continues as strong as ever, 100 years since the prestigious sides first met.

They face each other at 14:00 on Saturday, 20th of May, in Bloemfontein for the 46th time since their first match in Pretoria on the 29th of September 1923.

Grey won that first encounter 7-0, and have won the majority of the meetings since then, but Affies need to look back only as far as 2015 when an Affies first team including then Springbok coach, Heyneke Meyer’s son, Vic Meyer, came to Bloemfontein and beat the hosts 29-18.

It will take an inspired performance by the boys from Pretoria though, as Grey College have been consistently beating the best teams in South Africa all season, and it does not look like any opponents have the answers to the questions players like Vincent Wolhuter (fullback), Ian van der Merwe (flyhalf) and Benito Goeda (centre) have been asking on attack.

The real differential for the Bloemfontein powerhouse has been the exceptional work rate of their forward pack though, with Jean Erasmus (prop) and the loose trio of Jean-Henri Smit, Keegan Scholtz and captain, JJ Theron being central to their play every weekend.

Though the visitors are coming off a good win last weekend, when they beat King Edward VII 43-20, they have had a difficult run of fixtures so far and will be aware of how much a win in Bloemfontein will affect the outlook on their season.

The Grey side remains unchanged from the team that beat an in-form Paarl Boys’ High in Paarl last weekend, and they are clearly firing on all cylinders.

Affies’ fullback, Migael de Lange, has stood out for his team and will need to be on top of his game again as Van der Merwe is sure to continue using his kicking play that has served his side so well this season.

Steyn Truter, the big loosehead from Pretoria has also looked strong, but it will take a huge effort from him and his pack to outmuscle the Grey forwards on their home turf, they have not given an inch to any team this season so far.

A rivalry with a history as rich as this never disappoints, and though Grey are the definite favourites at home, Affies are sure to push them to the absolute limit again.

The teams are:

Grey College vs Afrikaanse Hoër Seunskool at 14:00

Grey College: 15 Vincent Wolhuter, 14 Hayden Tolmay, 13 Benito Goeda, 12 Pieter van der Merwe, 11 Martin Botha, 10 Ian van der Merwe, 9 Christiaan van der Westhuizen, 8 JJ Theron, 7 Keegan Scholtz, 6 Jean-Henri Smit, 5 Schalk du Plessis, 4 Heinrich Theron, 3 Jean Erasmus, 2 Liam van Wyk, 1 Ranon Fouche.

Afrikaanse Hoër Seunskool: 15 Migael de Lange, 14 Stephan Brits, 13 Antonie Fourie, 12 Janco Purchase, 11 Ivandre van Wyk, 10 Ruben Pienaar, 9 Hendre Schoeman, 8 Dieter Schubert, 7 Ruan Lippoldt, 6 Braam Swanepoel, 5 JD Hattingh, 4 Jono Eloff, 3 Ruan Smuts, 2 Ethan van Dyk, 1 Steyn Truter.

Diamantveld se eerstespan is in die middel van ‘n baie besige periode in hul rugbykalendar.

Die span uit Kimberley het verlede naweek in hul groot FNB Classic Clash teen hul buurskool Noord-Kaap gespeel.

Nou pak hulle vir Jim Fouché uit Bloemfontein aan voor hulle Dinsdag teen Hoërskool Trio speel en Saterdag weer uitdraf teen Duineveld.

Die wedstryd teen Jim Fouche word hierdie Saterdag om 13:00 regstreeks op SuperSport Schools uitgesaai – Registreer nou

Die Diamonds het daardie wedstryd teen Noord-Kaap met slegs een punt, 18-17 verloor, na ‘n langafstand strafdoel in die laaste minuut van die wedstryd en sal uitsien na die kans om weer aan die wenkant te kom teen hul besoekers uit die Rosestad die naweek.

JF sal egter ander planne vir die ontmoeting hê.

Die Bloemfonteiner beleef ‘n baie sterk seisoen en hul kaptein en uitblinker haker, Stefan Venter, sal sy span wil lei na nog ‘n groot sege in Kimberley.

Venter en sy skrumskakel, Triston van der Walt, is twee opwindende spelers om dop te hou vir JF.

Die tuisspan sal staat maak op spelers soos Marco Matthewson (losskakel), Valentino Lenge (senter) en Flip du Randt (stut) om die verskil te maak in hul wedstryd.

Matthewson speel ‘n kernrol in die Diamonds se aanval en Lenge het al gewys dat hy nie veel spasie nodig het om by die verdedigers verby te kom nie.

Die wedstryd behoort ook ‘n groot toets vir die twee spanne se voorspelers te wees.

Altwee pakke neem geweldig baie trots in hul lynstane en skrums, en die kragmeting tussen die groot seuns in die voorry gaan baie interesant wees.

Fichardtpark het ook ‘n uiters goeie seisoen, en sal uitsien na hul kragmeting teen HTS Louis Botha, wie nog nie hierdie jaar op spoed kon kom nie.

Die Fichie leeus lyk soos van die gunstelinge in beide die Kovsie- en stadsliga en hul aanslag word aangesterk deur die terugkoms van hul stervleuel, Edward Mpinga, wie uit was met ‘n besering.

Fichardtpark het reeds vir Sentraal (33-7), Jim Fouché (39-33) en Grey III (41-24) afgesien en sal hierdie rekord wil behou.

Die spanne is:

Diamantveld t. Jim Fouché om 13:00

Diamantveld: 15 Liam Ferris, 14 Kyle Taute, 13 Valentino Lenge, 12 Simon Liversage, 11 Lehan van der Westhuizen, 10 Marco Matthewson, 9 Ethan Marnus, 8 Paul Cronje, 7 Juandre Stassen, 6 Achilles de Jager, 5 JJ Fourie, 4 Diwan Muller, 3 Flip du Randt, 2 De Wet du Plooy, 1 FJ de Fries.

Jim Fouché: 15 Christian Strydom, 14 Altus du Plessis, 13 Wiandro Wiese, 12 Heinrich Hattingh, 11 Dillon Calitz, 10 Hanko Botha, 9 Triston van der Walt, 8 Calvin Bolt, 7 CJ Raath, 6 Ruan Heymans, 5 SW van der Merwe, 4 Stefan van Rooyen, 3 Stean Marais, 2 Stefan Venter, 1 Bernard Labuschagne.

Fichardtpark t. HTS Louis Botha om 12:20

Fichardtpark: 15 Martin Kalp, 14 Edward Mpinga, 13 Duan Viviers, 12 Dandré van der Merwe, 11 Janco Mollentze, 10 Dailen Geldenhuys, 9 Devanté Claassen, 8 Erick Klopper, 7 Wian Pienaar, 6 Jan-Nel du Plessis, 5 Nathan Dodd, 4 Jaco Grobbelaar, 3 Nathan Swanepoel, 2 Luhan du Plessis, 1 Zaine van Zyl.

Voortrekker kraai weer koning teen Witteberg na die buurskole se FNB Classic Clash die naweek.

Die wedstryd is beskikbaar op SuperSport Schools – Registreer nou

Vir die eerste tien minute was dit die tuisspan wat op die aanval was, en Witteberg se skrumskakel, Dries Stemmett, kon ‘n vroeë 6-punt voorsprong aan sy span besorg met sy ingeoefende skopskoen.

Dit was die Trekkers wat egter eerste oor die doellyn kon kom na ‘n uitstekende aangee deur hul skrumskakel, Alexander Maree, vir die heelagter, Thumi Khoza, toegelaat het om deur ‘n gaping te bars. Losskakel, Tiaan van Rooyen, kon die drie ook suskesvol verdoel om die voorsprong vir die besoekers te gee.

Volgehoude druk lei toe na ‘n hanteringfout deur die tuisspan en BVHS se uitblinkervleuel, Kamohelo Moses, versamel ‘n steekskoppie vorentoe vir ‘n pragdrie kort voor halftyd om die telling 14-6 in die guns van sy span te maak.

Die tweede het helfte begin nes die eerste een, met Witteberg wat vroeg aanval en nog ‘n strafdoel oorsit.

Dit is toe weereens Maree wat beheer van die spel neem vir Voortrekker. Hy was deurlopend wakker vir enige geleenthede en word toe beloon toe sy skoppie vorentoe nie versamel word nie en dit vir hom die geleentheid gee om die bal terug te kry en ‘n drie aan te teken.

Die Trekkers se groep voorrye besluit toe om ook ‘n hap van die koek te vat na al hul harde werk. Die groot loskopstut, Francois Maree, gee so  à la Lukhanyo Am die bal uit aan sy haker, Arnold Ras, en hy los die Witteberg verdediging in sy stof en gaan druk in die hoekie.

Witteberg kon van hul trots herwin deur om die laaste woord in te kry met ‘n drie deur hul agsteman en kaptein, Nico van Rensburg, maar dit was nie genoeg om die Trekkers te stuit nie.

As mens kyk na die wedstryd statistieke was daar nie veel wat die spanne geskei het nie.

Die een area waarin die Trekkers wel uitgestaan het is waneer dit by skrumtyd gekom het. Nie net het hulle bo uitgekom in al die skrums waarin hulle die bal ingevoer het nie, maar hulle het ook twee van Witteberg se vyf skrums verpletter om die balbesit terug te wen.

Witteberg was op hul beurt weer meer effektief in die losgemaal, hul losvoorspelers kon ses keer die bal steel, maar die tuisspan kon die balbesit nie in drieë oorsit nie, en moes staat maak op die skopskoen van Stemmet vir meeste van hul punte, terwyl Voortrekker op vier geleenthede agter die opponente se doellyn gaan kuier het.

Elf van die Voortrekker seuns is eers volgende jaar in matriek en hierdie vertoning het gewys hoeveel potensiaal in die groep is. Dit lyk baie belowend vir die res van die seisoen, en volgende jaar sal hulle mee gereken moet word.

Alexander Maree het uitgeblink in die wedstryd vir Voortrekker, en Moses en Khoza het die tuisspan ook gedurig besig gehou.

Vir Witteberg het Marco Grobler (flank) en hul Daniel Meintjies (slot) uitgestaan op verdediging, maar ondanks ‘n paar opwindende oomblikke het die tuisspan se aanval gesukkel om drieë te druk.

Daar was ook op die platteland mooi rugby op skou.

Wynand Engelbrecht (binnesenter) kon vier drieë druk vir Vrede toe hulle vir Reitz met 50 punte afgekaf het.

Itumeleng Moyatsi (buitesenter) kon ook ‘n driekuns aanteken vir Ladybrand. Hulle wen met 69-0 teen New Horizon College van Bethlehem.

Hoërskool Harrismith se losskakel, Thabang Radebe, het ook drie keer oor die doellyn gekom vir sy span en al tien hul drieë verdoel om 35 punte aan te teken in hul 70-0 slagting van Hoërskool Ntsu.

Hul linkervleuel, Sinethemba Xaba, en buitesenter, Sandie Dhlamini, kon ook twee drieë elk aanteken.

Paarl Gimnasium kon sterk staan teen ‘n gedrewe Boland Landbou om nog ‘n sege te kry in wat alreeds ‘n uiters indrukwekkende seisoen is.

Die wedstryd kan gekyk word op SuperSport Schools – Registreer nou

Die Gimmies het die oorhand gehad vir meeste van die wedstryd, maar dit is eers in die laaste 15 minute wat hulle regtig spasie tussen hulself en die tuisspan op die telbord kon sit.

Boland was deurlopend braaf op verdediging en het nooit moed opgegee nie, maar hierdie Paarl Gim span lyk baie goed afgerond.

Louw du Toit (agsteman), wie die enigste verandering is van die span wat verlede naweek met Paul Roos 24-19 afgesien het, kon een van sy span se ses drieë druk.

Tazreeq Moerat (heelagter), Freek de Kock (vleuel), Marco Steyn (slot), Danio Botha (slot) en Jan Koegelenberg wie as ‘n reserwe opgekom het kon ook elkeen een maal agter die Boland doellyn gaan kuier om die sege vir die besoekers te seël.

Vir die Boere was dit weereens hul staatmaker haker, Cilliers Viljoen, wat uitgestaan het, maar dit was ongelukig vir die seuns van die Agter-Paarl nie genoeg om die Bolandse rugby reus te pootjie nie.

Al het die tuisspan baie goed gedoen om die besoekers in toom te hou vir meeste van die wedstryd het Paarl Gim teen die einde die sluise oopgedraai en uiteindelik gemaklik met Boland afgereken.

Gimmies speel volgende teen hul teenstanders uit die suidelike voorstede, eers SACS in die stad volgende naweek, dan Diocesan College in Paarl op die derde Mei.

Hulle het nog slegs die een wedstryd, vroeg in die seisoen, teen Grey Kollege verloor (33-12) en hulle sal wil voortbou op hierdie momentum tot die groot bepaling teen Hoër Jongenskool Paarl in Augustus.

Strand het ‘n enorme terugvegpoging gelewer om van 27-0 agter teen halftyd terug te kom om vir DF Malan 34-27 te wen in die stad.

Twee drieë deur hul onderkaptein en buitesenter, Gino Cupido, het sy span gehelp om die agterstand in te haal.

Grayton von Maroe (vleuel) het ook twee drieë gedruk in Augsburg Gimnasium se 27-0 sege oor Vrendedal Sekondêre Skool in Vredendal.

Robertson het in ‘n riller van ‘n wedstryd bo uitgekom teen Swartland met slegs twee punte. Hul binnesenter, Sean Cedras kon twee strafskoppe verdoel wat op die ou end die verskil gemaak het in sy span se 16-14 sege.

Die puntemakers:

Paarl Gimnasium 36 (17) – Drieë: Tazreeq Moerat, Freek de Kock, Louw du Toit, Marco Steyn, Danio Botha, Jan Koegelenberg. Doelskoppe: De Kock (3). Boland Landbou 18 (3) – Drieë: Cilliers Viljoen, Alru Gous, Dewald de Villiers. Strafdoel: Retagen van Rooi.

Hoërskool Noord-Kaap claim the bragging rights in Kimberley for the year, beating their neighbours, Diamantveld, 18-17 in a dramatic battle, decided by a last-second penalty conversion.

You can watch the game again on SuperSport Schools – Register now

Kimi van den Horst, the Northerns’ centre opened the scoring on Pirates, slicing through the Diamonds’ defence and stating the home team’s intent within the first ten minutes.

The visitors, however, had their own agenda and two tries by Liam Ferris (fullback) and Simon Liversage (centre) gave them the lead,

Ferris showed immense pace to get to a kick forward by his scrumhalf, Dirk van Heerden, before anyone else.

Then Liversage received the ball on the blindside after a good, dominant scrum by his forwards and rounded off the try in the corner.

That said, the Northerns pack did extremely well to match the big Diamantveld boys at the set pieces. Moeketsi Lang came off the bench in the first half and did not give an inch to his opposite number, the big prop, Flip du Randt.

Northern Cape showed great character to claw one back before halftime, even after being reduced to 14 men with a yellow card.

None other than Junior Kettledas, the winger who has been so threatening with ball in hand all season, finished off a try in the corner after a period of tireless attack by his team, during which it seemed like every Noord-Kaap player carried the ball at least once.

After 20 minutes of trading blows in the second half, during which time neither team could get past their opponents, Noord-Kaap took the lead once more.

Their scrumhalf, Lwandle Maseko, was awake to an opportunity, seeing that the Diamantveld defence were a bit slow to organize themselves he took a quick tap, deep in his own half and spread the ball wide to their winger, Keante Pienaar, who left the Diamonds defenders grasping at air as he bolted away along the touchline to score.

It looked like the visitors had stolen it with only four minutes left on the clock, when Liversage made another excellent break and managed to get the ball out to his other centre, Valentino Lenge, who is no stranger to the scoresheet himself, to score the try that regained the lead.

With only about two minutes left to play after the conversion attempt, it looked like Diamantveld might have stolen an epic victory, but the home team were still not done.

Spurred on by the supporters, wave after wave of Noord-Kaap attack after the kickoff led to a penalty being awarded with only a minute left in the game.

Eldrigde Jack (flyhalf) showed absolutely world-class composure to step up and convert the long-range penalty in the dying moments of the big match, after not being able to convert any of the tries earlier.

He shook off any pressure he might be feeling and converted the winning penalty, securing a famous victory for his side.

Welkom Gimnasium continued their impressive run of form at home, comprehensively beating the visiting Hoërskool Trio by 44-17.

The Gimmies’ backline has been a thing of beauty this year, and they have been providing some of the most spectacular tries every weekend.

A team that is made for the highlight reels with their scintillating tries and extravagant celebrations, the boys from Welkom have outplayed many of their opponents thus far this season.

St. Anne’s Technical from Saaiplaas in Virginia managed their first win in their debut season, seeing away with Virginia High 42-0.

The team has shown great improvement since they first stepped onto the field at the Fichardtpark Nashua Sports Day early in March,

The scorers:

Noord-Kaap 18 (10) – Tries: Keante Pienaar, Kimi van den Horst, Junior Kettledas. Penalty: Eldrige Jack. Diamantveld 17 (12) – Tries: Liam Ferris, Simon Liversage, Valentino Lenge. Conversion: Marco Matthewson.

Welkom Gimnasium 44 (18) – Tries: Julian Samuels, Renaldo Kiewiet, Ethan Jones, Hloni Mokotjo, Navan Goeda, Tristan Appollis, Taschon Meas. Doelskoppe: Kiewiet (3). Strafdoel: Kiewiet. Hoërskool Trio 17 (0) – Tries: Heinrich Loubser (2), Kabeya Haaron. Conversion: Louis Boshoff.

Goudveld-Hoërskool 26 – Tries: Lodie van Dyk, Jan Coetzee, Juanricht Cloete, Jonathan Olivier. Conversions: Ruben Crous (3). Hentie Cilliers 3 – Penalty: Paseka Mokoena.

Other results:

u19A – St Anne’s Technical 42, Virginia High 0.

 

Jim Fouché ultimately managed a comfortable 38-17 victory over Sentraal in their FNB Classic Clash after their neighbours gave them a couple of scares early on.

The game is available to watch again on SuperSport Schools – Register now

The first half was a tightly contested affair, as the home team only managed to break through the Tralie defence once, when their big loosehead, Bernard Labuschagne, powered over for the opening try.

Sentraal were resolute in defence, even though JF enjoyed much of the possession early on and when their captain and centre, Hanco Smith, scored just before half-time, it looked as if the Tralies might have something up their sleeve for the big derby.

The home team regained control in the second half, scoring five more to pull away and secure the win.

CJ Raath, Jim Fouché’s impressive flanker, powered through the tacklers, stretched to score and began building a lead for the home team again.

Sentraal struck back again though, through none other than the returning AJ Senekal, their prop who had been a standout player for them before his injury a few weeks ago.

After that however, JF opened up the flood gates and Hanko Botha (flyhalf), Triston van der Walt (scrumhalf), Calvin Bolt (nr. 8) and of course, their captain and try-scoring machine, Stefan Venter (hooker), all managed to cross the line and take the game out of reach of the challengers.

Venter had a great game again, and Van der Walt was a menace around the rucks and was kicking well on the day.

Were it not for a lengthy stop in play as a couple of injuries were rightly attended to, the score line may have been a bit nastier, as the Sentraal boys seemed to have their wind knocked out of them by the JF onslaught in the second half.

Fichardtpark extended their unbeaten streak to 12 games this season in a thriller against Landboudal of Jacobsdal.

The Lanties were in it to the very end, with only two points separating them from the Fichie Lions when the final whistle blew.

The accuracy of Dailen Geldenhuys, the Fichardpark flyhalf, who expertly converted all three tries, made the difference in the end.

Luhan du Plessis (hooker) who replaced Jaco Janse van Rensburg in the starting lineup for this game played exceptionally and scored a brace for the team from Bloemfontein.

In Reddersburg, Sterling Batties, the centre, scored 16 points for Hendrik Potgieter in their 46-10 victory over Sand du Plessis.

Batties scored two tries and kicked three conversions to help his team in the main event of the day’s activities.

Brandfort got their revenge against Bloemfontein High, beating the visitors 61-12.

Last year, Bloemfontein HS beat Brandfort 24-21 for the first time ever, and the hosts were not about to allow a repeat of that incident.

For Bloem High, Duan Visagie (hooker) carried the ball strongly and managed their lineouts well and Caydon Ontong looked dangerous with the ball in hand and was solid in defence.

Brandforts big no. 8, Wehan Strydom, seemed unstoppable though and scored four tries.

JC Venter (lock) and Altus Coetzee (scrumhalf) also scored a brace each, taking the game out of reach of the visitors.

For the home team, it was the flyhalf, Henré Smith, who stood out, along with his big forwards, Strydom and Venter.

The scorers:

Jim Fouché 38 (7) – Tries: Bernard Labuschagne, CJ Raath, Hanko Botha, Triston van der Walt, Stefan Venter, Calvin Bolt. Conversions: Van der Walt (4). Sentraal 17 (5) – Tries: Hanco Smith, AJ Senekal, Damian van Zyl. Conversion: Reece van Rooyen.

Fichardtpark 21 – Tries: Luhan du Plesis (2), Janco Mollentze. Conversions: Dailen Geldenhuys (3). Lanboudal 19 – Tries: Barry Pretorius, Vuyani Moore, Marius Etzebeth. Conversions: Moore (2).

Revenge was sweet as Diocesan College handed their long-time rivals, Wynberg Boys’ High, a 14-10 defeat in their own backyard on Saturday.

Wynberg have had the upper hand in this fixture for the last few years but the Bishops boys got one back for the first time since 2019.

You could sense the tension on the field and between the supporters, as the crowds traded chants while the players traded blows in a game that was loud, physical and contested till the end, a Southern Suburbs derby at its finest.

Wynberg opened the books with a penalty by their stoic flyhalf, Yaqeen Ahmed, on the 15-minute mark.

His opposite number, Shaywan Blankenberg, took a big knock shortly after, despite being down for some time, after the medical staff had cleared him to continue he did well to recover and power on, continuing to play a central role for his team.

Bishops scored the first try when fullback, Gilermo Mentoe, wriggled through the smallest of gaps and outpaced everyone to take the lead for the visitors with eight minutes left in the first half.

To their credit, Wynberg never dropped their heads and kept asking questions of the Bishops defence, who remained resolute until the final minute in the half, when Amier Adams (centre) was rewarded after several phases of play.

The hosts went into the break up by 10-7.

The second half brought more of the same, with every powerful carry being met by equally impressive hits in defence.

Bishops showed that they can also build phases, and after their forward pack had softened the defence their industrious scrumhalf, Kashief Joseph saw an opportunity to dart around the ruck and score the only try of the second half.

Despite being a low-scoring game it was packed with action and exciting to the very end.

Up the road, Rondebosch Boys’ High also handed a home defeat to SACS (22-7).

Rondebosch controlled the game throughout, with their forward pack running the show.

Collin Paul Kemp (flanker), Carl Geddie (lock) and Justin Amos (prop) scored their three tries, highlighting how involved the big boys were in the attack.

Hoërskool Durbanville scored 77 unanswered points in another victory for the travelling teams this weekend when they visited Parel Vallei in Somerset West.

The Durbies backline put in the performance that they have been threatening to all season, scoring 11 tries, with Monray Daars  (scrumhalf) converting nine of them and Shaun Klein (flyhalf) kicking over the other two as well.

Worcester Gimnasium had joy at home though as they beat the visiting Bellville High School 30-19.

This comes shortly after they also came out on top in the clash against Worcester Secondary (29-19) on Wednesday.

Gimmies have been punching above their weight class all season and are an exciting team to keep an eye on for the future.

The Tralies were involved in another big derby only last weekend when they lost to Fichardtpark 33-7.

They take on their other big rivals in the City of Roses this weekend when they make the short trip to Jim Fouché.

JF have had quite an impressive season thus far and will look forward to asserting their dominance over a Sentraal team who have been struggling to realize their potential this year.

JF lost to Fichardtpark by 39-33 in a titanic battle when those two met but managed big wins over the likes of Goudveld (24-21), Bethlehem Voortrekker (36-24) and most recently Randburg (40-31).

Their captain and talisman, Stefan Venter, has been phenomenal for his side, scoring many of their tries himself and managing the lineouts expertly, he slots into his natural hooker position as JF is bolstered by the return of their flanker Ruan Heymans. 

The Jim Fouché scrumhalf, Tristan van der Walt, has also more than proved his worth, distributing the ball well and taking on the conversion duties for his team.

Wiandro Wiese starts at centre and will cherish the opportunity to claim the position as his own.

Sentraal have been relying on their big forwards to carry the ball, with the Marnus Earle (hooker), Van Zyl Hetzel (prop) and AJ Senekal (prop) making most of the metres for the Tralies so far this season. 

They were without the services of Senekal for their fixture against Fichardtpark and the burly tighthead’s absence was evident on the field, they have to make do without him again this weekend.

Fichardtpark are also in action, travelling to the west to Jacobsdal to play Landboudal.

The Fichie Lions are on an incredible 11-match unbeaten streak this season and will look to keep building momentum with another big win against the Lanties.

Landboudal will need to regroup after suffering a heavy 70-12 defeat against Marlow at the GWK Agri-schools Fest, but they have also shown what they are capable of with strong performances to beat Goudveld (25-22) and Sentraal (43-22) earlier in the season. 

Fichardtpark are still without their star winger, Edward Mpinga, whose season has been interrupted by injury after he got off to a flying start. Rubin Visagie will look to make his mark as he gets the opportunity to start in place of Mpinga.

The team from Bloem are also without their stalwart hooker, Jaco Janse van Rensburg. He is replaced by Luhan du Plessis.

They can still rely on some of their other big playmakers like Devante Claassen (scrumhalf) and Dailen Geldenhuys (flyhalf) who have played very well this year and are definitely in with a shot at making the Craven week squad if they continue performing at their current level. 

Saint Andrew’s welcomes Cornwall Hill College from Centurion for their big annual derby.

When these two met last year in Gauteng, Cornwall Hill College emerged victorious, beating the Bloemfontein side 26-0.

Saints will want to set the record straight on their home turf.

Bloemfontein High and Sand du Plessis both travel for their games on Saturday.

Bloemfontein High face Brandfort, who managed a convincing 31-7 victory over President Steyn last weekend and will hope to build on that momentum.

Sannies travel to Reddersburg to play Hendrik Potgieter in what is bound to be an exciting battle between the structured attacking play of the Hendrik Potgieter forward-pack and the backline flair of Sand du Plessis.

The teams are:

Last year’s meeting between Wynberg Boys’ High and Diocesan College was shrouded in controversy.

As what might have begun as banter between the two schools’ supporters and pupils boiled over after Wynberg managed to bring the team from Rondebosch’s impressive winning streak to an end, beating them 20-14.

This year, the teams face each other in Wynberg, on Saturday  at 12:20.

Both teams are on a good run of form, with Wynberg winning six of their seven games so far this season, their only loss coming against Paarl Gimnasium (33-11). 

Bishops have also managed to go five from six, their only defeat came when they hosted Paul Roos Gimnasium (24-12).

With both teams playing some exciting rugby this year, and the added animosity between the two sides after last year’s drama, this is set to be an intense battle.

Bishops have just managed a historic victory against SACS last weekend, on the 150th anniversary of the oldest rivalry in South African rugby. 

It will be interesting to see if they are inspired by their 31-25 win over their old foes, or if that battle has drained their energy somewhat.

It’s forecast to be another stormy weekend in the Cape, but one would expect both flyhalves to be adept at playing in these conditions.

Just five kilometres up the road another big clash will be taking place as SACS and Rondebosch Boys’ High square off at the foot of Table Mountain on the SACS fields where oldboy Percy Montgomery would have been practising his kicking in the afternoons when he attended the prestigious school.

The home team will be looking to bounce back after their heartbreaking loss to their oldest rivals last week.

Rondebosch have been a difficult fixture for all their opponents so far this year, losing only to an in-form Durbanville High (35-19) and drawing against Grey High School (19-all).

They will look to continue causing problems through their backline, allowing the likes of Matthew Malherbe (centre) and Ethan Gordon (winger) to score some more exciting tries, as they have been doing all season. 

Durbanville High School have been playing exceptionally this year. James Nero (centre) and Jayden Nell (no. 8) have stood out as the Durbies have knocked over some big teams, most notably when they beat Paarl Boys’ High 26-25 in March.

They travel to Somerset West to meet Parel Vallei on Saturday.

Parel Vallei played well to get a draw against Frikkie Meyer on the final day of the Rolyn Bergsig tournament in Rustenburg recently, but they will need to raise their game considerably to survive the Durbies’ onslaught in their match on Saturday.

There is action to the East as well, with Montagu making the drive to face Point High School in Mossel Bay and Worcester Gim hosting Bellville High School.

The teams are:

Wynberg Boys’ High vs Bishops at 12:20:

Wynberg Boys’ High: 15 Xolela Hoyi, 14 Matteo Pascoe, 13 Ezra Antonio, 12 Amier Adams, 11 Levi Brown, 10 Yaqeen Ahmed, 9 Sange Mbuto, 8 Xola Nyali, 7 Aden de Costa, 6 Jarryd Jackson, 5 Michail Kasfikis, 4 Monty Loggeenberg, 3 Leo Addinal, 2 Nicholas van Schalkwyk, 1 Aidan Reid.

Hoërskool Noord-Kaap and Diamantveld battle it out this weekend for bragging rights in Kimberley when they meet for their FNB Classic Clash on Saturday at 13:30 on Pirates.

The game will be available live on SuperSport Schools – Register now

Diamantveld have had the upper hand in this fixture historically, winning three of their four encounters since 2018. 

Northern Cape, however, will look to repeat the success of the last time they met on their home turf in 2021, when they beat the Diamonds 29-17.

The home team started their season exceptionally well, managing a few big wins early on in the season over the likes of Sentraal (43-0), Landboudal (26-5) and Milnerton (38-24). 

They have had a run of defeats against some strong opponents since then though, most recently at the Menlo Rugby Tournament where they lost to both Menlopark (22-5) and Waterkloof (39-19) and they will need to return to the form they showed earlier in the season for their big derby.

Diamantveld hosted the annual Absa Wildeklawer Tournament during that time, where they also lost both their games against Boland Landbou (27-5) and HTS Drostdy (15-13).

With both teams desperate to add more success to what has been a mixed season so far with a big derby win, this match is bound to be an epic battle.

Diamantveld have been relying on the power of their forwards so far this season, with players like their big lock and captain, JJ Fourie, in their pack who can throw his weight behind the Diamonds’ drive and Marco Mathewson, their flyhalf, who has shown how punishing he can be off the kicking tee.

In contrast, their neighbours, Noord-Kaap, have employed a high-pace running brand of rugby which has led to some spectacular tries through the likes of Jonaden Links, their fullback, and their captain and flyhalf, Eldridge Jack.

The outcome of this match is sure to go a long way towards determining the success of either team’s season, and the boys will be pumped to crown themselves as top dogs in Kimberley.

Hoërskool Trio also travel to Welkom to face a Welkom Gim team who have been at the top of their game this season.

Expectations are high for the team from Kroonstad as they had a dream debut season in 2022, managing to win both the Griffon League and the Kovsie League’s Shimla final on their first time of asking.

The Trio team overcame all odds to beat Bethlehem Voortrekker by 21-14 for the title of Griffons League champs and showed their evolution as the season progressed to also beat Jim Fouché in the Kovsie League Shimla final by 21-19 after losing to the Bloemfontein side 20-3 in their first game ever at the beginning of the season.

When they met the Gimmies for the first time last year, they lost with the narrowest of margins 35-32, but this is a brand new season and Welkom Gim have looked very impressive on their campaign thus far.

Naylen Goeda (fullback), Naven Goeda (winger) and Renaldo Kiewiet (flyhalf) have been exceptional for the Gimmies this year and Ethan Jones (no. 8) has recently been included in the SA u18 Sevens training squad, with a chance to make the team to represent SA at the Commonwealth Youth Games in August in Trinidad and Tobago.

The home team have looked especially dangerous in Welkom, and Trio will have to be awake on defence to keep out the Gimmies’ dangermen.

Goudveld host Hentie Cilliers from Virginia in Welkom.

The Gouties have had to shuffle their pack for this fixture, most notably Quinton Davids takes his place in the flyhalf position again, as Ruben Crous covers inside centre and Enzo Beukes falls into the fullback position.

The visiting team have shown great improvement over their last couple of matches, and they seemed to have clicked last weekend when they managed a 22-all draw against Witteberg.

They will look to take it one step further this weekend and pull off an upset against the home team.

The teams are:

Noord-Kaap vs Diamantveld at 13:30:

Noord-Kaap: 15 Jonaden Links, 14 Junior Kettledas, 13 Kimi van den Horst, 12 Abdul Fischer, 11 Keante Pienaar, 10 Eldridge Jack, 9 Lwandle Maseko, 8 Shaw Lourens, 7 Melvin Diedericks, 6 Tyron China, 5 Thaylin Rose, 4 Wentzel Hibbert, 3 Tebogo Motswenyane, 2 Liam Harmse, 1 Liyabona Mbeke.

Diamantveld: 15 Liam Ferris, 14 Kyle Taute, 13 Valentino Lenge, 12 Simon Liversage, 11 Lehan van der Westhuizen, 10 Marco Matthewson, 9 Dirk van Heerden, 8 Paul Cronje, 7 Ernie Kruger, 6 Achiles de Jager, 5 JJ Fourie, 4 Diwan Muller, 3 Flip di Randt, 2 De Wet du Plooy, 1 FJ de Fries.

Welkom Gimnasium vs Hoërskool Trio at 13:00:

Hoërskool Trio: 15 Jaco Steyn, 14 Louis Boshoff, 13 Haaron Kabeya, 12 Charlten Basson, 11 Thuto Kekane, 10 BJ Pelser, 9 CJ Taljaard, 8 Tapiwa Mundeta, 7 JD Kirstein, 6 JP Botha, 5 Hencoe Kriek, 4 Pieter van Schalkwyk, 3 Jesse Jordaan, 2 Heindrich Loubscher, 1 Dandre Bloem.

Goudveld vs Hentie Cilliers at 13:30:
