It took only 10 minutes for the big Drostdy forwards to barrel their way through Swartland’s defences, with Walter Schoeman<\/strong> scoring the opening try of the contest.<\/p>\n

Darius Venter<\/strong> and Vergotine both dotted down for five-pointers before the break to bring the halftime score to 19-6, with Swartland’s only points coming from the boot of flyhalf Iminathi Njozela<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The second stanza belonged to the home team, with Venter going over for his second, while Josh Fourie<\/strong> and Harold Mbuqa<\/strong> made further inroads on the scoreboard.<\/p>\n

Drostdy had stormed into a 52-14 lead when Vergotine crossed for his third, but the visitors clawed back with two tries in the last five minutes through their Craven Week hooker, Kallie Boutsikaris<\/strong>, which gave the final score a more respectable look.<\/p>\n

In Somerset West, Stellenberg<\/strong>‘s Jade Brigade continued their rich vein of form, flexing their muscles in a runaway 60-0 victory over Parel Vallei<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Inside centre Ruben Pretorius<\/strong> scored a hattrick to help undo the home side as Stellenberg ran in 10 unanswered tries to end the term on a high.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Charlie Hofmeyr<\/strong> kicked off the weekend’s action at Ho\u00ebrskool Stellenbosch<\/strong> without their two Craven Week stars, Luan Giliomee<\/strong> and Philip du Plessis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Stellenbosch outfit outperformed all expectations, making the visitors from Ceres sweat to keep their unbeaten streak alive.<\/p>\n

By halftime, the only points had come off the boot of the home team’s fullback, Drew Houston<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

After the break, Charlies lifted their game to win 12-6, with hooker Kyle Cardoso<\/strong> and flank Caleb de Vries<\/strong> scoring the only tries of the game.<\/p>\n

Milnerton<\/strong> successfully defended their home turf against a spirited Brackenfell<\/strong> under lights on Friday evening, thanks to a double by their captain, Frank Hitimana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As expected, the exciting northern suburbs’ outfits produced an absolute thriller, with the home team outscoring Brakkies by only five points.<\/p>\n

Both Milnerton and Brackenfell have delivered plenty of highlights in the Western Cape season, playing entertaining, quick and inventive rugby every week to the delight of their loyal supporters.<\/p>\n
