A huge battle looms in the southern suburbs as Wynberg Boys’ High<\/strong> readies to host SACS<\/strong> on the Hawthornden field<\/strong> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Last year, Wynberg did the double over SACS, beating them 30-17 away on the Memorial Field in June and 36-14 in front of a home crowd in August.<\/p>\n

SACS are bolstered by the return of their captain, Seth Bradford<\/strong>.\u00a0The industrious scrummy has missed most of the season due to a string of injuries, but he has brought an injection of energy every time he’s featured and will be fired up to make the most of the season’s remaining fixtures.<\/p>\n

In his absence, Nic Reynolds<\/strong> has been excellent as the stand-in captain, spearheading the SACS’ attack and putting in some huge hits on defence.<\/p>\n

Wynberg shot out of the blocks at the beginning of the season, winning their first seven games, which included an historic 30-27 win away at Paarl Boys’ High<\/strong> and a dominant 35-8 victory over their other peninsular rivals, Bishops Diocesan College<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Six Wynberg Boys’ High players have been selected to represent Western Province at the Craven Week<\/a> in Krugersdorp next month.<\/p>\n

Yaqeen Ahmed<\/strong>, Torren February<\/strong>, Xabiso Mkiva<\/strong> and captain Aden da Costa<\/strong> have made the WP squad while Tjeripo Karuhumba<\/strong> and Tyron Gombe<\/strong> will form part of the WP XV.<\/p>\n

Ikhona Maxegwana<\/strong> and Sango Zangqa<\/strong> of SACS provide the muscle up front in the WP XV squad.<\/p>\n

The battle between the two big forward packs is set to be a highlight this weekend and the visitors will want to make a statement ahead of the annual youth tournaments.<\/p>\n

Since their early successes, Wynberg has endured two tough fixtures, losing to 27-49 to Rondebosch Boys’ High<\/strong> and 25-50 to Paul Roos Gimnasium,<\/strong> and they will be eager to get back to winning ways before the term ends.<\/p>\n

SACS lost 27-40 to an in-form Boland Landbou<\/strong> last weekend but showed their potential on the previous weekend when they brought Milnerton<\/strong>‘s winning streak in the southern suburbs to an end with a dominant 59-19 victory.<\/p>\n

With Bradford back at the helm, SACS will be intent on avenging last year’s losses and making a statement by taking down a star-studded Wynberg on their home field. The hosts will be just as motivated to regain their early momentum with a strong showing against their old rivals.<\/p>\n
