Last year, Graeme recorded their first win in 49 years over the Gqeberha outfit, and they will be chomping at the bit for a chance to repeat that success in the final match on Saturday afternoon.
Grey showed their potential in their most recent outing, rising to the challenge set by an unbeaten Wynberg Boys’ High in Cape Town, to draw 10-10.
First though, Graeme will have to navigate a tough fixture on the opening day against one of this season’s most outstanding and entertaining teams, Jeppe High School for Boys. The hosts, meanwhile, kick off their weekend against another Johannesburg school when they face St John’s College.
Makhanda will also be represented at the prestigious event by St Andrew’s College. They go up against Parktown Boys’ High, followed by a clash with Jeppe.
