Players: Henco Conradie, Pierre du Preez, Marnus Liebenberg, Marnus Gruber, Dean Koch, Juandré van der Walt (captain), Johan Meyer, Tiaan Venter, Michal Collins, Christiaan Streicher, Christopher Schimper, Hanno van Tonder, Thinus Grundlingh, Stephan Martignalia, Daniel Terblanche, Ricus Fourie, Marnus Jansen, MJ Schoeman, Alton Stegman, JP Boer, Jean van Niekerk, Pieter Prinsloo, Marco Carstens. 

Die eerste rugbyspan van Hoërskool Sentraal kan nie bekostig om nog kragmeting in vanjaar se Vrystaatse A1-liga te verloor nie.

Dié span van 2014 het groot belofte getoon om die eerste span van sy skool te word om daarin te slaag om as kampioen gekroon te word. Maar na nederlae teen die Cherries (50-17) en Fichardtpark (33-29) sal die Bloktruie Saterdag op sy tuisveld met sy rug teen die muur in sy jaarlikse ENB Classic Clash teen Jim Fouché uitdraf. Dit is ook ’n ligawedstryd.

“Ons kan nie nou nog bekostig om nog een in die liga te verloor nie. Ek dink ons sukkel om momentum op te bou na ons lank nie in aksie was nie en nou weer drie wedstryde kort op mekaar gespeel het,” het Jorrie Grobler, afrigter van Sentraal, gesê.

Tralies sal hoop dat sy tuisveld vir hom ’n bondgenoot is. Hoewel Jim Fouché bo in die laaste drie kragmetings tussen die twee spanne was, kon hy laas in 2008 vir Sentraal op sy tuisveld troef. JF was op die dag oortuigend 62-14 baas. Die Springbok-sewesspeler, Jamba Ulenga was nog daardie dag die wenspan se held.

Sentraal sal ook die wedstryd sonder sy staatmaker slot, SJ Wessels aanpak. Hy het sy enkelligamente beseer en sal minstens die volgende twee weke die spel van die kantlyn af moet dophou. Hennie Terblanche wat in Wessels se plek uitdraf kry ’n geleentheid wat aan die begin van die seisoen onmoontlik gelyk het. Hy het aan die begin van die seisoen nie rugby gespeel nie en nog onlangs vir Sentraal se derde span uitgedraf. 

Jim Fouché se span in onveranderd vir die wedstryd na hy hom verlede week teen Marlow Landbou (27-23) vasgeloop het. JF moes vroeër vanjaar ook hard werk om Fichies 21-20 onder te kry.

Die span sal hoop sy agterhoede vuur op alle silinders in die kragmeting. Die heelagter Danneel Stone, vleuel Thiardt Ingram en senterpaar JP Steyn en Ruan Wasserman kan enige verdediging op hulle dag aan flarde skeur.
Grey-kollege sal op sy tuisveld teen Selborne-kollege van Oos-Londen sy onoorwonne status wil behou.

Waterkloof se losskakel, Tinus de Beer staan Saterdag breed in Garsfontein se pad om ‘n sege in die twee spanne op Klofies se tuisveld te behaal. De Beer was verlede Saterdag in die oorwinning van 55-30 oor Menlopark weer een van Klofies se staatmakers.

Vir Garsfontein sal sy Cravenweek-senter, Franco Naudé op sy beste wil wees indien hulle vir Waterkloof wil troef. Naudé is ‘n sterk aanspraakmaker om later vanjaar op binnesenter vir die Suid-Afrikaanse Skole-span uit te draf. Garsfontein het ‘n skok-nederlaag verlede week van 28-27 teen Hoërskool Nelspruit gely. Indien Waterkloof die wedstryd wat vandag om 13:15 in die Jakarandastad afskop wen, behoort hy as die Blou Bulle se makro-skole kampioen gekroon te word.

In die Paarl sal Boland Landbou om 11:50 gasheer vir die Hoër Jongenskool Paarl speel. Laasgenoemde het ‘n naelskraapse sege van 24-22 oor Wynberg Boys’High verlede Saterdag behaal. Boishaai se spellers was egter nog vlugvoos nadat hulle vroeër verlede week eers van die Sanix internasionale toernooi in Japan terug gekeer het. Die span van die Paarl het op dié toernooi in die eindstryd teen Hamilton Boys’ High van Nieu-Seeland die knie gebuig.

In Bloemfontein sal Sentraal hoop dat sy tuisveld as bondgenoot vir hom die wa deur die drif in sy FNB Classic Clash teen Jim Fouché sal trek. JF kon laas in 2008 daarin slaag om Tralies op sy tuisveld ore aan te sit. Hy was toe 62-14 baas.

Grey-kollege sal in Bloemfontein probeer om sy onoorwonne status vanjaar te behou as hy om 12:40 teen Selborne-kollege van Oos-Londen uitdraf. Die span van die Rosestad se heelagter, Tokkie Kasselman kry in die beseerde Henry Immelman sy kans in die beginspan. Kasselman se pa, Chris (Hoërskool Sandveld, Wesselsbron) het die Suid-Afrikaanse Skole-span in 1979 en 1980 as losskakel gehaal.

Kemptonpark sal op sy tuisveld om 12:20 die nuwe kampioene van die Tuks-reeks, EG Jansen die stryd aansê. Die span van Boksburg is ook die huidige Beeldtrofee kampioene vir Makro-skole. Kemptonpark sal op sy sege van 19-18 oor Monument van Krugersdorp wil voortbou.

Paul Roos Gimnasium pak om 12:50 op sy tuisveld vir Wynberg Boys’High, terwyl Paarl Gimnasium om 12:00 vir Tygerberg die stryd aansê.

Weston and Treverton will do battle for the 50th time as Weston celebrate their Centenary year at home in the big FNB Classic Clash on Wednesday.

Last year Weston travelled to Treverton and handed their rivals a massive 64-13 defeat to avenge the consecutive losses in the two previous years, so there is plenty for both teams to play for this time around.

Weston flyhalf and captain Michael Bauer is one of only three players in the team that played last year, and they are up against a more experienced Treverton side that boasts 11 Matrics to Weston’s four.

Treverton’s big forward pack is expected to take Weston on up front, with just one Weston forward back from last year’s encounter, but the visitors also have plenty of options out wide with their entire backline having played at first team level last year.

Weston have also been hit by injuries with skipper Bauer recently returning after tearing ankle ligaments and star fullback James Duncan-Anderson still sidelined.

The stars for Weston should be skipper and Head Boy Bauer who has been selected for KZN Midland Under-18 and has been invited to KZN trials, along with flank James Muller who played Grant Khomo week for the Valke last year.

Results this season:

Weston have had some promising results, with five wins from their nine matches including victories over Dundee, Linpark and Pongola Academy, whilst they were well beaten by the likes of Sarel Cilliers and Linden.

Treverton have had a tougher time of it going down narrowly to Grantleigh and St Henry’s, with their best win coming against The Heritage from Zimbabwe.

Teams:

Weston: 15 Brandon Slow, 14 Khulekani Malanda, 13 Wesley Liversage, 12 Nico Barkhuizen, 11 Wandile Nkambule, 10 Michael Bauer, 9 Thabo Ntombela, 8 Douglas Allen, 7 James Muller, 6 Samkelo Sima, 5 Kyle Mustard, 4 Josh Gilbert, 3 Meluswa Mthethwa, 2 Lulamile Kama, Sabelo Dube.
Replacements: 16 Bheka Nembula, 17 Luyanda Thabede, 18 Devon Roux, 19 Sphiwo Shelembe, 20 Dale Price, 21 Henry Strydom, 22 Jaco Vermaak.

Treverton: 15 Andrew Tilbury, 14 Marco Marais, 13 Khalipha Ngwenya, 12 Devon O’Brien, 11 Rylin Hennig, 10 Luke Richardson, 9 Francois Buys, 8 Darren Garlick, 7 Keagan Taylor, 6 Valentine Masinyane, 5 Stuart Shaw, 4 Lungani Gumede, 3 Jonothan Ogden, 2 Struan Cowie, 1 Tristan Pickering.
Replacements: 16 Langa Madikizela, 17 Darren Usher-Jones, 18 Igor Claassen, 19 Kanenelo Seoe, 20 Ivan van Zuydam, 21 Zuko Habile, 22 Donald Paterson.
