Maties should give all the other varsities a klap.They just have so many players and that draw should wake them up.it will go down as a loss in stellenbosch for Maties

was at the game last nite, awesome idea, official attendance 8514, not bad, agree the continous awarding of free kicks damaged the game in its whole. Tukkies in the initial period of second half seemed a much better team and carried it through to the end, Maties downfall must have been their subs, did not manage to maintain the intensity of their first half effort.

maties can only blame themselves.
they sent in a decidedly second string looking side that failed to hold out for the whole game. chaen will be kicking himself today!

by the way? why the hell is the sevens not held in stellenbosch anymore… compare last nights crowd to the dissapointing show that we see at george every year…
anyone that can remember the Winfield 7′s will remember that it was awesome!

Well done Tukkies.

Maties have so much depth – and so many other factors in their favour when it comes to rugby – that I’m surprised that ANY other varsity can stand up to them.

Well done Tukkies, indeed.

Maties would have won by far if they had continued to play but no they were too clever for thier own good and got a ten minute lesson in GUTS.

Supersport showed the game, the maties should never have drawn that game, they should have won by far. I think the new laws are ****, free kick after free kick, no man this isn’t rugby anymore.

agreed the winger was briliant
unfortunately the ref blew the game to death
