    12 of the Top 20 will be on showcase this weekend at the Wildeklawer Super School Tournament hosted by Affies in Pretoria.
    The Top 7 will all be present.

    09h00 Florida vs Wildeklawer Barbarians
    10h15 Framesby vs EG Jansen
    11h30 Boland Landbou vs Waterkloof
    12h45 Paarl Gymnasium vs Grey College
    14h00 Diamantveld vs HTS Middelburg
    15h15 Boys High Paarl vs Glenwood
    16h30 Outeniqua vs Monument
    17h45 Afrikaans Hoër Seunskool vs Paul Roos Gymnasium

    I will be covering all the matches for Rugby15 and giving Live Updates on the Twitter and Facebook feeds.

    Massive weekend for School Boy Rugby and can’t wait to see what the future has in store for some of these boys.

    Rankings look pretty fair. I would have had Grey @ #1 but I’m sure that will be the way it reads at the end of the season.

    That is only the draws for Saturday.
    Sunday is a rest day and kicking lessons with Morne Steyn and Vlok Cilliers.
    Monday will see them all going at it again. Draws for Monday will only be released after Saturday’s matches.
    I am hoping for a Grey vs Paul Roos rematch.
    And maybe Affies vs Monument.

    @A_Poc: I doubt that will happen… As the Grey College – Paul Roos is an annual “derby” fixture, they are bound to play against each other in August some time! Not sure about Affies & Monnas though…

    Bok fan, be honest with yourself. An abundance of rugby talent isn’t developed at english schools..

    @A_Poc: Grey College won’t play PRG as they have a big local derby, the same goes for all the schools having local derbies against one another. The second day’s fixtures will be determined depending on the first day’s results. My guess is Affies vs Paarl Boishaai, PRG vs Monnas, Grey vs some other school like Glenwood maybe.

    sorry not local derbies, rather yearly derbies…as all schools are not from the same provinces obviously!

    partizan, I’m not sure where you guys live but of the 20 schools in the current Top 20, 7 are English, 11 are Afrikaans and 2 are bilingual. Afrikaners dominate rugby, but no more than English speakers dominate cricket.

    Not sure how you are working out these rankings but they seem to differ from the ones on saschoolsports ? Why is Glenwood so far down?

Keo.co.za has always promoted uncensored views, but has never tolerated racist or crass outbursts. Come on guys and girls. If you can't moderate yourselves or each other then I am going to be forced to regulate the posts and enforce a registration process for comments. The choice is yours.

Have your say
