Hello here GBS how you doing? Sorry man see a big part of this game is gone, was busy out and also on the other thread. Looks like UJ are running away with this.
Won’t make it for the Tuks Maties game so here’s hoping Tuks get a good win YEAH TUKS!
Hard-working Carel Greef gets another try for Wits.
He’s a bloody good prospect, number of weeks in a row now I’ve watched him.
UJ 47 / 24 Wits

Dis Tuks of Niks!
Kobus de Kock gets his 4th try in the game for UJ
UJ 55 / 24 Wits
38 @ grootblousmile:
🙂 oh ok is that what they sing/shout these days, have I been giving my age away
11 tries so far seems like this is a very open exciting game or is it just non existent defence? Also seems as if UJ fullback de Kock is having a super game with his four tries and the conversions already
41 @ Bullscot:
Hehehe
I’m also still one of the Yeah Tuks okes….
Got my degree end of 1989… yonks ago
43 @ grootblousmile:
Gosh now that is really a long time ago oom GBS, even mine was a few years after that
Enjoy rest of rugby GBS will stay logged on for a bit so can get the results quickly in a bit but for now 40 winks is what is required anders gaan dit ‘n laaang nag wees cheers vir eers
44 @ Bullscot:
Hehehe
My initial Student No was an 83 number… started at Tuks in 1983… did 1 year of Engineering before going away for 2 years to do National Service, then studied on from 1986 to end of 1989 to get my 4-year B Proc. Studied Buitemuurs the last 2 and a half years, whilst doing my articles and being married from 1988 onwards.
Still remember my Tuks student Number, to this day…
Try Chrysander Botha for UJ
UJ 63 / 24 Wits
Can Wits get a 4th try?
Penalty Wits, on the UJ 22
Over the line but held up… they come back for a Wits penalty, 5 out
Good UJ defence sees them hold out Wits.
Less than 2 minutes to go in the match.
UJ penalty for a high tackle
Wits get a last gasp penalty deep in their own half… and UJ gets one… just to knock
Deep into added on time…
Still not over… 83 minutes gone
Final Score: FNB UJ 63 / 24 FNB Wits
Nouja, die voorwedstryd is verby… nou vir die grote!
46 @ grootblousmile:
Oh yeah seem to remember a while ago chatting and you saying you had done engineering but then you ended up as a prokurower, that must have been hard going to have gone away to army for a while then back to study and then nogal getting married for some of the study years too. Weird when I read you mentioned you still new your student number think mine came back to me straight away too, the mind is an amazing thing how it stores things in different compartments as hadn’t thought about my student number for years, by the way it started with 89
