Klein Schalks broer Kobus also played for WP wing and 2 tests for the Bokke. To confuse you even more Freek Burger the referee is also a Paarl Gimmie. We produced also Wynand Mans and now the up and coming Francois Veldsman is a current teacher here and doing great.

The Big schools dont play for a specific Cup or competition. There has been years since Paarl Gimmies and Grey Bloem played its other. Since two years back an ex Paarl Gim Head Master, Basjan Reinard introduce the Wilde Klawer series where the top 14 schools play the others they don play yearly...

Dankie Oom Lee for this one, always a very interesting topic for our local Saffers and much debateable. Here is my picks for some of the top SA Schools. First the two top Springbok producers over the years Paarl Gimmies: vs Grey Bloem 15. Hennie Daniller...

Havent post here in ages. My kid made the Boland Scorpions Indoor Hockey team and play his first Nationals in December. They ended 6th on the log of a 11 team competition while the Boland Foxes lost in the final to the Cape Seals 3-2. He can still play 2 years in this age group and this year it...

The Lions S15 squad will be finalised within the next few days. Rumours at the moment and it look like the Beast and John Smith wont go to the Lions but it look like Butch James will start there only from May when the NH season ends and I do know they have Andre Pretorius back and have signed...

Its make or break time for CJ. If he dont starts game after game for the Stormers he'll be gone. Did not mention it but the Stormers backup, WP Vodacom Cup squad will be pack with talent from 2010 WP U21 CC winners. Saw Dewald Duvenhage yesterday at Struisbaai, driving a big Audi these days.

Elgar Watts and Willie Viljoen the Boland 10 duo. Willie was found from Paul Roos by Loffie and an attacking one. Hope he and Watts will get a change, 3rd scrummie is Marnus Hugo also back at Boland. The Stormers strengths is their backline. Give them ball and they'll cut any team to pieces...

Stormers sqaud havent been finalised and 75 players went on their reconditioning program. Wont differ much from 15 Jantjes, Aplon, Wings Habana, Aplon, Engelbrecht Midfield Jac Fourie, Jean de Villiers, Juan de Jongh, 10 Grant, Cronje, (Boland duo) 9 Januarie, Duvenhage 8 Vermeulen, R...

Oom Lee I am at the beach and dont have that much time. The Stormers have CJ vd Linde and Jean de Villiers this year. Grant will be back, so they'll be much better in the Tight 5. Very much a Bekker and Burger show like last year and injuries to them is crictical. Backline will have lots of...

Stormers, Sharks and Brutes dont have weaknesses and will be much stronger then 2010. That is all.

Pretty sure Brendon have his practision in Somerset or Strand and Rassie probably will use him in some role. Saw Pieter de Villiers the Haan prop is coaching at Villagers (WP club)

Divan Serfontein is a doctor, Michael du Plessis a dentist, Theuns Stofberg a fisieo, Boland Coetzee and Hempies du Toit wine makers.

Dankie Oom Lee, I'll give all the credit for Andre Watson who have been superb in our orgaising of our refs. Myself is sure its not about the individuals refs , more to do with SA rugby competitions and building a ref structure to bring the young ones through to top level. Also good to have...

Tony Jantjies the Brute flyhalf brother of Elroy who played against the BaaBaas. Find out the other day both Jantjie brothers played at Paarl Gym a few years back and had to leave when their parents was placed by the Defense Force to Gauteng and Florida picked them up. Bradley Moolman the Brute...

WP or Stormers and more specific Paarl Gym aint the SA midfield fabric for nothing. 2010 see the rise of Juan de Jongh. Played 12 with Jacque during the S14 and his preferred position 13 with Jean de Villiers. All three in the Stormers setup and pretty sure Juan probably will play all our...

That Pom test was a eye opener. When the Bokke bashed them and they realise they wont win the test, that newbies had the right look in their eyes, another Bok win coming up. You want to go in a WC tournament with players who has been there, done that before, not with a bunch of rookies. They...

Yep Beast was outstanding at LH. Guthro also had a good year, so LH not a problem. Battleship sure made a huge differense and cement his spot with John Smit. TH still a bit of a problem altho Jannie did well and improved. Myself expect CJ van der Linde to lift his play in 2011 being the Stormers...
