Try Bosman, for UCT
Try Ikeys.
I must say that I really enjoy the Varsity rugby. Also watching a lot of club rugby lately.
Maties 13 / 10 UCT

Do I imagine it though, or are all the Varsity Cup sides considerably weaker this year..
I mean Maties have been lucky to win all 4 games, UCT is nowhere near what they used to be, Tuks also lacklustre.
Shimlas have been poor…
Reniel Hugo wants to model his game around Bekker? Is he going to shift from lock to the wing?

I think so hey.
The better teams lose a lot of good players to the Provinces.
It also seems like there is too much razmataz and not enough rugby.
Mmmm, how’s about some custard donuts and a few koeksusters… I think it’s a good call!
Flok, ek is ‘n verskriklike soettand….
Ice cold Windhoek for me.
2Nd Half ON!
UCT penalty, quick tap…
Come on Ikeys!
Try Tiger Bax
Try!
UCT 15 / 13 Maties
Ikeys trying the quick hands, no look passes a bit too much.
Try Ryan Nell for Maties
Good try by Maties.
Maties 21 / 15 UCT
Nouja, nou het ek my gesig goed gevoer… wat gaan ek drink?
Ikeys hooker is worse at throwing in than both Burden and Fourie.
Jammer, maar is ek die enigste een wat sien dat die scores verkeerd is?
Dit tel nie op nie.
Ek mag dalk verkeerd wees
Would be nice if UCT could win here, pulling Maties Log position back a bit

TheZeeMan,
Varsity Cup scores work differently to what you’re used to.
Penalty = 2 points
Conversion = 3 Points
Try still = 5 points
Interesting that there are plenty English names playing for the Maties and Afrikaans names for the Ikeys. No longer a case of the English and Afrikaans varsity’s.

Sjoe!
I thought that Bloem girls were pretty.
