School of Rugby Rankings – 28 May 2018
There weren’t a lot of movement in our rankings after Saturday’s matches.
Our two top ranked teams, Paul Roos Gimnasium and Grey College, both had an off-weekend. Third placed, Paarl Gimnasium, had to work hard to beat Boland Landbou (15th) by 42-38 in an exciting match. Gimmies’ only defeat thus far has been against top ranked, Paul Roos Gimnasium.
Glenwood kept their unbeaten record for 2018 and turned the tables on the Horseflies (Durban High School) by 55-12 in their annual clash. The Grasshoppers stays in fourth position.
Transvalia of Vanderbijlpark managed to defeat Monument of Krugersdorp by 34-31 their first over Monnas since 1982. The team from Vanderbijlpark only defeat thus far has been in Middelburg against HTS Drostdy (14th).
Garsfontein moved closer to move past Monnas after defeating Menlopark by 48-24 in their Virsekerbeker clash. Garsies have a off-weekend, while Monument will take on Nelspruit this Saturday. Next weekend Garsies en Monnas will take each other on in a clash which could see Garsies move past Monnas or the latter cementing their place above the team from Pretoria.
St Andrew’s College of Grahamstown suffered their first defeat in 22 games after going down by 17-36 against Selborne College. Saints have another tough encounter against Grey High School waiting this weekend on them.
Please note that we don’t take matches against international opposition into consideration in our rankings. These games will however still be recorded and shown in our results. This rankings is not an official ranking as there is no official ranking on schoolboy level and this is only to get the discussion on school rugby on South Africa flowing. We however take our responsibilty on reporting school rugby very seriously.
