WP (16) 26 / Griquas (16) 26 (Final Score)
The DHL Western Province hosted GWK Griquas at Newlands, Cape Town at 15:00. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, M-Net & SH2 on TV in SA.
A kiss-your-sister result probably suits Griquas more than it suits WP.
Scorers:
WP: 4 Penalties & 2 Conversions Gary van Aswegen, 1 Try Siya Kolisi, 1 Try Johann Sadie
Griquas: 3 Penalties & 2 Conversions & 1 Drop Goal Monty Dumond, 2 Tries Rocco Jansen

Helloooooooooooo
Hi GBS,
Bogey team and venue straight up. What more could a team ask for? 😉

Helloooo Kitaartjie!
Difficult one this… WP fielding an inbetweener side.. in between Super Rugby & Vodacom Cup quality… Griquas going with settled combos and getting a few Super Rugby players back..
I picked WP by 7 on Bru.
Must say the Pumas surprised me last night, they ran the Lions very close and to rights should have won that encounter
Unfortunately the Cheetahs / Leopards match takes place simultaneously with this match and is not broadcast, just streamed through SuperSport’s site… if you’re a subscriber…
So, let the scores for that game come, it will be welcomed!
Players out on the field now… game will start shortly!
Game ON!
Early penalty for Kwas, kickable… Kwas fired up
Monty Dumond slots it for Kwas
Kwas 3 / 0
People talk about a young side. Love to know what the ave age of this Province side is, particularly that backline….
Anyone watch the ITM match between Wellington & Taranaki this morning… not inspiring rugby… and quite a number of All Blacks playing
Penalty WP, kickable and Gary van Aswegen goes for goal…. missed to the right… bad miss
Another kickable WP penalty.. side entry
3 / 3
Sorry GBS, but having arrived last night from Puma’s town I was still sleeping like a baby at the time the Kiwi match-up was on.
Cheetahs up 7 / 0 so far
Penalty for Kwas, about 40m out… going for posts
Missed
Another Kwas penalty within range
Kwas 6 / 3
Brilliant try by Rocco Janzen for Kwas
Great try Kwas!!!
Kwas 13 / 3
Cheetahs 14 / 0 so far
Penalty to WP, 7m out
Gary van Aswegen goes for posts, slots it
Kwas 13 / 6
Ag fark, my Superbru begin nie te goed. Gedog die Pumas kon die ding doen. Cheetahs sal my help! Komaan WP en Sharkies!
To an outsider the Currie Cup frankly is a bit pointless!!
The Super 15 is the exciting competition!! 😉
Tackle around the neck by a Kwas player, penalty WP… too far out
Sal maar die game hier volg. Reen te hard in Londen en met die familie hier, kan nie by die Slug uitkom!
