    Anyone know when KZN craven week side will be announced?
    Seems that this year, there is really not much in it for the top teams. No clear favourite.

    I have no doubt that Erasmus will pick the majority of the green machine, but will still be good to see.

    Whats happened toWestville this year? Started off well beating Glenwood and a few other top teams, but seem to be falling apart.
