Its the penultimate round of fixtures before we head into the semi finals. The race for the semi’s sees five teams in the running for the top four spots, with the top four teams taking each other on in what should be some excellent games!
Current leaders are Maties on 21 points, with UCT just behind them on 19 points, both playing 5 games and losing one each. Wins for these two teams tonight will all but wrap up a semi final spot. Tuks are in third on 17 points, along with UJ also stuck on 17.
Shimlas in fifth with 14 points will be hoping that Maties and UCT take out Tuks and UJ so that they keep their semi final hope alive. Should that happen and Shimlas manage to beat TUT, they will be back in the top four.

@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 1) :
I’ve got:
Pukke
Tuks
Shimlas
UCT
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 3) : Shimlas game can go either way, but I think the Maties will pull it off.
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 2) : Got 1/4 last week
Maties all the way! I think we even playing better than some of the super 15 teams…
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 5) :
I got 1/4 as well..
Who would have thought with 4 games we would struggle so much to get a GSP
@jessi (Comment 6) : Our College Rovers are playing better than some of the SR and Varsity teams
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 7) : I’ve managed only 1 gsp, round 2 or 3 I think
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 7) : Thanks Richard.
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 1) : Seeing as I cant even buy a Top 10 finish, I decide to pick all the above teams to win by 10.
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 11) : Don’t sweat it dude. I’m 50th!
Largely because I missed the 1st round couldve been like 30th!
How’s the shield log looking?
@Poisy (Comment 13) : Good Q. Does UKZN still have a chance?

So we are stuck in fourth, but we have played one less game..
This comp also has no semi finals, its straight into a final for the top 2.
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 16) : ag no man we won’t make it to top 2
