  • School of Rugby Rankings – Final Rankings for 2015

    School of Rugby Rankings – Final Rankings for 2015

    SOR NuusIt is no surprise that Paarl Boys’ High are on top of our final rankings of the 2015-season. The class of 2015 finished the season unbeaten by beating Outeniqua by 30-28 in the final of the Maties Top Schools tournament in the Danie Craven Stadium in Stellenbosch. The first time since 1982 that the first XV of Boishaai finished a season unbeaten. 

    Boishaai will surely also top all of the other rankings, but we at School of Rugby has the bragging rights that we were the first ranking system placing them on top. The other powerhouse from the Boland town, Paarl Gimnaisum, finished in the second position. Paul Roos would’ve occupied this spot, but their surprise defeat against Boland Landbou going into the home straight of the season cost them.  

    Boishaai’s second stringers also finished their season unbeaten. 

    Michaelhouse also finished the season unbeaten and gets the number-nine spot on the rankings. They only played 12 matches during the season. This cost them on our system as we reward teams that play more matches and whom play against quality opposition.  

    Both teams who played in the final of the Beeld Noordvaal Trofee for Macro Schools, Garsfontein en HTS Middelburg, moved into out Top 20. It must be remembered that we look at a season as a whole. Both teams had slips early in the season, but managed to finish strong.

  • Oakdale baas op Die Plaas

    Die tradisionele interskole tussen die Hoër Landbouskool Oakdale en Boland Landbou is Saterdag op Riversdal beslis. Die twee skole is bekend vir ʼn sterk tradisie van samehorigheid, skoolgees en dissipline, wat beslis bygedra het tot die skouspel van skolerugby wat al die o.14- tot o.19-spanne ten toon gestel het.

    Dit was die o.19A-spanne wat voor ʼn baie groot skare hul status as deel van die top 20 in die land gestand gedoen het. Alhoewel Boland Landbou gedurende die eerste twintig minute die losspel oorheers het, was dit veral twee vinnige drieë deur Oakdale wat die Bolanders onkant gevang het.

    Die span van Oakdale het beïndruk met hul hantering tussen voor- en agterspelers. Dit was veral Ewan Coetzee, HP van Schoor, Chrisjan du Toit en Boeta Hamman wat beïndruk het.

    Die gesoute skopvoet van Jondre Williams (no. 11-vleuel) van Boland Landbou het die Bolandspan deurentyd in die wedstryd gehou en hy is laat in die tweede helfte teruggeskuif na sy spesialisposisie van skrumskakel.

    Die goed afgerigte span van Oakdale verdien hul oorwinning en bevestig hiermee opnuut hoekom hierdie twee landbouskole kan meeding met die grootstes in die land.

    Tydens die interskole het 16 spanne teen mekaar gespeel waarvan Oakdale 9 en Boland 5 wedstryde gewen het. Die o.16A-spanne het gelykop gespeel.

    Die tellings lyk soos volg:

    o.19A: 21-19 (Oakdale)
    o.19B: 28-9 (Oakdale)
    o.19C: 15-32 (Boland)
    o.19D: 14-22 (Boland)
    o.19E: 7-32 (Boland)
    o.19F: 0-63 (Boland)
    o.16A: 15-15 (Gelykop)
    o.16B: 0-32 (Boland)
    o.16C: 8-12 (Boland
    o.15A: 26-7 (Oakdale)
    o.15B: 46-0 (Oakdale)
    o.15C: 32-12 (Oakdale)
