The only slight blemish on their record was a 25-all draw against top-ranked, Grey College of Bloemfontein.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">John McGlashan celebrated their century last year by reaching the Otago Final losing 17-24 against Otago Boys&#8217; High. The latter went on to reach the South Island final against Christchurch Boys&#8217; High which they lost by 23-26.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">John McGlashan produced All Blacks like <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Stewart_(rugby_union)\">Edward Stewart<\/a> (1923), <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Neil_Purvis\">Neil Purvis<\/a> (1976), <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Andrew_Hore\">Andrew Hore<\/a> (2002-13) and <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ron_Elvidge\">Ron Elvidge<\/a> (1946-50). Glenwood produced Springboks like Warren Whiteley, John Allan, Roger Gould and Doug Walton.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Glenwood attended the annual Wynberg Boys&#8217; High Festival last week and managed to win both their matches against King Edward VII (46-38) and San Isidro of Argentina (33-31). A player that will be closely watched by the New Zealanders are the versatile <strong>Joe Jonas<\/strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It will be the team from Dunedin&#8217;s first appearance at the World Schools Festival. They might provide Glenwood with their biggest test yet at the Festival as the team from Durban brushed away the Italian All-Stars (53-0) and the Namibian XV (53-7) during last year&#8217;s inaugural festival at Paarl Boishaai.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Watch some matches from Glenwood&#8217;s unbeaten side on<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/digitv.co.za\"><strong>DigiTV.co.za<\/strong><\/a><\/span> &#8211; <em><strong>Never Miss a Moment<\/strong><\/em>:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">.tg {border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;} .tg td{font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;padding:10px 5px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;overflow:hidden;word-break:normal;border-color:black;} .tg th{font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;padding:10px 5px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;overflow:hidden;word-break:normal;border-color:black;} .tg .tg-s268{text-align:left}<\/style>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<table class=\"tg\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th class=\"tg-s268\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>2019<\/strong><\/span><\/th>\n<th class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Glenwood vs Westville Boys&#8217; High&nbsp;<\/span><\/th>\n<th class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/7874\/Vod\">https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/7874\/Vod<\/a><\/span><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>2019<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Glenwood vs Hilton College<\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/6612\/Vod\">https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/6612\/Vod<\/a><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>2018<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&nbsp;Glenwood vs Grey College<\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/541\/Vod\">https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/541\/Vod<\/a><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>2018<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Glenwood vs HTS Middelburg<\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"tg-s268\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/363\/Vod\">https:\/\/digitv.co.za\/#\/video\/363\/Vod<\/a>&nbsp;<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">[powr-comments id=&#8221;28cdf00f_1553503292126&#8243;]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John McGlashan College of Dunedin has a tough job first up in the opening match of this year&#8217;s World Schools Festival in the Markotter Stadium in Stellenbosch against Glenwood High School of Durban.&nbsp; Glenwood finished third on School of Rugby&#8217;s Final Rankings of 2018 after finishing the season unbeaten.
