The boys from Bloemfontein proved too good for Monument in a match played in Krugersdorp.


It was another big weekend of schools rugby action across South Africa with Grey College’s win against their big Krugersdorp rivals, Monument, the standout result of them all.

The boys from Bloemfontein dominated in most areas of the game against the boys of Monument in a match played in front of a huge crowd in Krugersdorp on Friday evening, with Grey winning 47-8.

A number of other big matches took place on Saturday, including the big Joburg English schools derby between King Edward VII School and Jeppe, with the visitors Jeppe winning a tight match in front of another capacity crowd 37-28.

Garsfontein were also victorious in Gauteng as were Pretoria Boys High, who beat Parktown 64-16.

Afrikaans Pretoria schools Menlopark and Waterkloof also recorded wins at the weekend, while in the big KZN King Price Derby Series match between Northwood and Maritzburg College it was the former that won 24-21.
