We won’t be covering the Promotion / Relegation match between UCT vs CUT or the Koshuis Final between Dagbreek and Vishuis live… but the reason why this Article is up so early is that we can chat about those 2 games right here, as an appetizer for the big clash at 19:00!
Goooooooooo Tuks!
Game On between UCT & CUT
UCT of course the University of Cape Town (Ikeys)… and last year’s Varsity Cup winners.
Oh how the mighty have fallen!
CUP are the Central University of Technology (Bloemfontein Technicon).
Same initials for the 2 sides… just in different orders… and of course very different sides
Tryyyyyyyyy CUT, through their Right wing, Alec Mhlanga
CUT 8 / 0 UCT
Ikeys strike right back with a try…
TMO
THAT was held up, no try… hands clearly under the ball… and ruled inconclusive
UCT scores now, Odendaal
CUT 8 / 8 UCT
UCT scores again, Slatem
UCT 13 / 8 CUT
Try Mark Winter for UCT…. under the sticks.
UCT 21 / 8 CUT
CUT defence and tackling almost non-existant
I see the CUT call themselves the Ixias…. the Ixia is the Corn Lily
CUT prop has the Nickname of “Baksteen” van Heerden… a “Baksteen” of couse being the Afrikaans name for BRICK
The BRICK almost through… and then his mate Gavin Annandale scores!
UCT 21 / 16 CUT
CUT not a shabby team.. just needs to tackle MUCH better overall
Mark Winter scores again for UCT
Go UCT – no bricks there, just some soft daisy’s!
UCT 29 / 16 CUT
17 @ Just For Kicks:
Hello Kickers….. you old knob-tobbler!
Wesley Chetty scores for the UCT
UCT 34 / 16 CUT
There can only be one winner here… UCT just that much better, and of course, they tackle
UCT try, Damien de Allende
Six tries to UCT… and it’s not even halftime yet
UCT 39 / 16 CUT
CUT fluffs a golden opportunity, with a kak last pass to the left winger
The BRICK loses the ball, 2m out
@ grootblousmile:I’ve had some strange welcomes, but that takes the cake!!!!! What are you drinking?
Baksteen van Heerden is either built like a Brick Shit house… or a Shit Brick house
27 @ Just For Kicks:
Fokoli!
Hehehehe, I thought I would get some reaction on that one!
Just finishing up in the cellar, will join you in a minute when I get up to the house
