Re: SA Schoolboy and club sport
After my wife and my first season in charge of the under 12s the club chairman has asked us to take the position of junior chair for the club. Effectively responsible for all junior sides. The chairman waa obviously impressed with how we managed the parents, boys and development. This leaves us a bi...

Re: URC Season 2024/2025 Official Thread
Sharks should put 50 past Leinster C. Yes, they should. Credit to Leinster C. They were in the Sharks faces all game long and played with a lot of passion. Can see NieNaber's defensive poison in full flight. Glasgow were all over the Lions. It's going to be a special team to beat Leinster A or Glas...

Edwill van der Merwe is signed for the Sharks. I rate him. Will definitely add to the squad. Mapimpi has signed for another 2 years too. Hooker needs to focus on 12 although Andre Esterhuizen is first choice there

Re: URC Season 2024/2025 Official Thread
I didn't see the game, but Zebre got a bit lucky with that last try. Anyway, a win's a win. Kolisi looks in good form. The ref was very lenient on Zebra. Our scrum demolition of them hardly ever resulted in penalties. We would walk them back 5 metres and still no penalties. Some other stuff too. Bu...

Re: SA Schoolboy and club sport
Our team finally got a L this past weekend. We played Mfuleni. They had a few high school boys that bullied our bowlers and a couple of grade 7 boys too. My son put up the only resistance, with 35 runs with 5 fours and a six. Boys are devastated. Our regular opposition couldn't put a team together s...

Re: The Official Cricket Thread
Shocking by Proteas. Bavuma really started the rot with his slow start. Put pressure on the boys all the way down. From my experience. You put pressure on the bowlers by hitting them around the park on the start. Openers in the short format don't play themselves in.

Re: SA Schoolboy and club sport
You have no clue how stressful it is to run an unbeaten team. Every Saturday is another pressure point. To lose our streak would be unforgivable. Especially for the boys. And now we have rugby overlapping with cricket. And some star batsmen not available. I can't wait for the season to end tbh. I ha...

Re: SA Schoolboy and club sport
I just love my team. On Saturday we played Durbanville, pretty much the last of our tough matches. They batted first and got 173 all out over 35 overs. The highest total we have ever had to chase on a pitch made for batting. But my lads were exhausted from a tough week of cricket so lots of extras w...
