RUGBY MATCH REPORT: Bishops too good for SACS

In wet and muddy conditions Bishops proved too strong and to skilful for their hosts SACS, winning 20-10. The match was an entertaining affair, enjoyed by a large crowd, with both teams trying to play attacking rugby in difficult underfoot conditions.

Uncharacteristically Bishops began playing conservative rugby and used cut-backs and crash balls to keep the ball close to their big pack of forwards. Despite good rucking and driving by their forwards the tactic didn't work and they spent most of the first half camped down in their own territory. Despite giving away territorial advantage Bishops were first to score after a kick from inside their own half. Bishops chased well and outflanked the SACS cover for right-wing Michael Nel to score.

SACS were straight back into the Bishops half and managed to put together some good phases of play. SACS were awarded a penalty as Bishops infringed at a ruck and flyhalf Tim Carr did the necessary. SACS were guilty of some errant kicking in both halves and it was from one of these kicks that Bishops scored their second try. A classic counter-attack was finished, somewhat controversially, in the right-hand corner by Bishops centre Adrian Kritzinger.

Bishops began to gain some of their renowned attacking rhythm in the second half and attacked relentlessly with star players Nic Koster and Adrian Kritzinger to the fore. The SACS team led by the loose-trio of Zack Beukman, Siswe Stemela and Sean Binedell showed wonderful commitment and got through a mountain of work in defence.

Feeling confident Bishops No. 8 Nic Koster tapped a penalty on the SACS 10 metre line and tried to move the ball wide. A pass went to ground and was scooped up by SACS left-wing Dean Holland. Holland, who has been in prolific try-scoring form all season, raced clear, chipped ahead and scored. Tim Carr converted to bring the scores level and give all the SACS supporters who braved the cold some hope.

Unfortunately for them Bishops struck straight back. SACS had a chance to clear their lines from the kick-off but attempted a chip kick instead. Bishops secured the kick and again moved the ball wide to the right for classy centre Adrian Kritzinger to score his second.

Not long after Bishops made the game safe, as Holland was a tad over adventurous in running the ball back from his own goal line. The idea was admirable but in the wettest part of the pitch he was always going to be struggling. Holland was tackled and turned-over and the ball was taken wide quickly for Bishops left-wing Mathew Turner to score.

SACS attacked with all they had in the final stages and created some good opportunities but poor finishing let them and their supporters down.

RUGBY MATCH REPORT: SACS battle to beat HTS Bellville

In a match played in cold and blustery conditions SACS managed to defeat their hosts HTS Bellville, 15-8. The game was punctuated by penalties as both sides battled to come to terms with the referee's interpretation of the tackle ball.

SACS started well and were full value for their early lead. Centre Liam Slatem chipped over the defence and re-gathered before offloading to left-wing Dean Holland to score. SACS continued to apply good pressure and used well-weighted grubbers and chips to good effect. The kicks created a couple of good chances and if they had finished them off SACS could have had the game wrapped up in the first half.

Instead they conceded a soft try when an errant pass was scooped up by HTS Bellville flyhalf Joline van den Berg, who ran 50 metres to score.

SACS then got on the wrong side of the referee and conceded seven unanswered penalties in the latter stages of the first half. HTS Bellville centre Rowan Minords converted one to give HTS Bellville a slender 8-7 lead at the interval.

Both teams made too many mistakes and conceded too many penalties in the second half for the game to really get going.

SACS flyhalf Tim Carr converted a penalty midway through the second half to secure SACS the lead. Carr had two other opportunities to make the match secure for SACS but missed both. HTS Bellville were unable to create any good scoring opportunities.

Playing with the wind SACS began to kick for field position late in the half and were able to score from a line-out drive. Livewire No.8 Sean Binedell, the man-of-the-match, scoring a well deserved try. SACS finished strongly and drove another line-out over the line only for the ball to spill forward inches from the surface.

The SACS 1st XV have now won four games in a row and can look forward to the visit of Bishops on Saturday with confidence.

Scorers:

For HTS Bellville:

Try: Joline van den Berg

RUGBY MATCH REPORT: SACS beat rivals Rondebosch

In an exciting match played out in front of a sizable crowd, SACS overcame near neighbours and rivals Rondebosch Boys' High in a hard fought match, winning 22-14. Despite the heavy overnight rain the surface was good and the teams were able to entertain the crowd with some expansive rugby.

SACS started badly and were guilty of numerous basic errors. After conceding a scrum from a skew throw to a line-out on the own 22m-line, Rondebosch punished SACS with an early score. A well executed cut move in the backs saw outside centre Zubayr Abrahams come through at pace. He breached the first line of defence and offloaded to flank Matthew Hitchens who scored. Flyhalf Dean Grant converted.

Despite the errors, SACS managed to pull three points back via a long-range penalty from flyhalf Tim Carr. Not long after Carr was guilty of holding on too long with an overlap, and SACS missed out on a definite scoring opportunity. SACS did take the lead though soon after when an errant pass from Rondebosch flyhalf was seized upon by SACS centre Liam Slatem. The ball was moved wide quickly to left-wing Dean Holland who beat two defenders and streaked in from 50 metres out for a brilliant score.

SACS made two elementary errors from the kick-off and turned the ball over. In much the same way as SACS had scored, Rondebosch shifted the ball left and their flyer, Shaafik Nordien, waltzed over out wide. Grant was on target again and Rondebosch led 14-8 at the break.

With both teams desperate for the win, they continued to battle manfully in front of their vociferous supporters. The SACS pack though began to take control of the scrums and loose-forwards Zack Beukman and Sean Binedell stood out with their energetic and abrasive displays in the loose. The SACS backs rewarded their forwards' efforts with a well-executed try midway through the second half. Centres Ishmat Fakier and Liam Slatem combining beautifully for Slatem to score. Carr converted for a slender 15-14 lead.

It was from another error by the Rondebosch backs that SACS sealed the win. Rondebosch chasing a score for the win attempted an elaborate run-around move. The ball went to ground and was kicked ahead by Slatem who had the pace to outstrip the cover. Carr was on target with the conversion.

With minutes remaining SACS closed out the game to the delight of their supporters.

RUGBY MATCH REPORT: SACS just pip Stellenberg

On a hot Wednesday afternoon out in Durbanville SACS held on to beat their hosts Stellenberg 21-20. The first half was a scrappy affair with both teams guilty of numerous basic errors. Consequently neither team was able to impose its pattern on the game.

Stellenberg played with the light breeze in the first half and looked to use their big pack to batter SACS into submission. They took the three points on offer from an early penalty with fullback Eben Basson converting from 30 metres out.

Both teams had their chances to attack off first-phase and tur-over ball but neither was able to hold onto the ball for long enough to score. For SACS left-wing Dean Holland tried manfully to create some scoring opportunities for his team while livewire Stellenberg flank Andreo Janse van Rensburg continually asked questions of the SACS defence.

On the stroke of half-time SACS attacked down the blindside only to see an errant pass intercepted by Stellenberg centre Jonathan Phillips. Phillips ran 65 metres to score. Basson missed the conversion and Stellenberg led 8-nil at the break.

SACS, with the breeze at their backs in the second half, needed to score early and did so via a well-worked penalty move. A quick tap was well handled by the forwards before lock Adam Norman eventually crashed over. Flyhalf Tim Carr converted.

Crucially SACS botched the kick-off, placing themselves under immediate pressure. SACS tried to clear their lines but the kick was skewed into midfield. Stellenberg inside centre Jonathan Hall fielded the kick and ran around to score virtually unopposed.

SACS struck back soon after. The loose-forwards and backs combining well to break out of their own half. SACS skipper Zack Beukman was prominent in the move. He popped up in the backline and carried the ball well into opposition territory. Adam Norman was on hand to take the play closer to the Stellenberg line where Beukman picked up from the ensuing ruck and went over. Carr again did the necessary and SACS were 14-15 behind with 15 minutes to play.

Both teams were desperate to win and the final quarter was frantic with play moving regularly from end to end. SACS went into the lead 21-15 when their nippy centre Liam Slatem broke through and scored. With Stellenberg still within seven point range the finale was always going to be very dramatic. Stellenberg centre Jonathan Hall scored his second try with minutes remaining it remained for Basson to convert for the win. He was unsuccessful and SACS held on for a hard-fought and much-needed win.

Scorers:

For Stellenberg:
Tries: Jonathan Hall 2, Jonathan Phillips
Conversion: Eben Basson
Penalty: Eben Basson

For SACS:

Tries: Adam Norman, Zack Beukman, Liam Slatem
Conversion: Tim Carr 3

Boland Landbou vs. SA College High School (SACS)

MATCH RESULT: Boland Landbou 8 (5) SACS 0

In wet conditions Boland Landbou’s heavier pack laid the platform for an unconvincing win against visitors SACS. The teams were evenly matched in most facets of play but Landbou’s superior pack kept SACS on the backfoot.

Boland Landbou had the stiff breeze at their backs in the first half a dominated territory and possession. SACS had one very good scoring opportunity when the hit the blindside and worked an overlap. Left-wing Dean Holland getting close to scoring in the corner. SACS were guilty of kicking some good ball away while poor handling cost Boland Landbou on many occasions. Boland Landbou’s try came from a lineout drive, the looseforwards combining well and breaking clear before offloading to hooker and captain CG Stouman to score. Pieter Esterhuyse missed the conversion from out wide.

SACS needed to score early in the second half and got close twice. Livewire centre Liam Slatem making two telling half-breaks but unable to link up his support players. Boland Landbou’s game plan was obvious and they played for field position for their powerhouse pack. Continued pressure close the SACS line saw them close to scoring on a few occasions but they had to settle for a solitary three points in the second half. SACS had another good scoring chance late on as great hands from fullback Warwick Denman put winger Chace Kruger clear but the cover defence closed him down.

It was an entertaining game in which both teams tried to play attractive rugby in slippery conditions. The Boland Landbou pack had the edge up front and as is so often the case this proved telling. SACS never received enough front football for their exciting backs.

Scorers:

Boland Landbou

Try: CG Stouman
Penalty: Pieter Esterhuyse
