    Free State are always very good at Craven Week because their team has WAY more synergy. Other big unions have a number of feeder schools whereas FS have Grey and that’s pretty much it.

    There is thus a common misconception that FS produce more good players than other unions. So yes, their team should because of the cohesiveness, not necessarily because they are better players.

    @lepel(lepel)-2: Fortunately they have both, based upon the number of Free State School players gaining higher orders.

    KZN was was robbed in final 4 minutes of the game against the Lions, 2 huge forward passes within minutes after each other, very blatant, but ref was to busy huffing and puffing trying to keep up with the game.
