Bring it home...

Some things you just can't overemphasise or exaggerate on. Even people like myself - who am I kidding no one is like myself but for arguments sake lets keep it - skilled in the art of hyperbole can't manage to make Monday into something bigger than it really is...

The Final of Varsity Cup...

The jink, the swerve, Over!

We have intermittently commented on the VC and UCT's success at shoving a big strong hand off into the face of everything that is Afrikaans but Monday looks to be the coup de grace in the effort.

UCT dominated the entire competition but slipped up for 70% of the semi-final. They regained their feet at stole victory from the petrified faces of the Pukke side as they watched a 21 point lead dwindle and Matt Rosslee's carter-esque game winner sail over. Final time baby...

Burnt!

Maties, the established superpower in (and behind) SA Rugby have not entrenched themselves this year as they have done historically but they managed an overtime penalty to beat Tukkies 47-44 to make the other place in the final theirs.

Due to a variety of logistics, politics and admin UCT had to forfeit their home ground advantage and have to travel to Stellenbosch for Monday nights final. If the competition is anything to go by expect a massive climax with all sorts of controversy and excitement.

This is what Monday looks like:

17h00: Steinhoff Dagbreek v UCT Colts
18h45: Steinhoff Maties v FNB UCT RFC.

It is going to be special...
