Anthony speaks some hard truths
When I was a young man, going through my school career as a rugby player of no exceptional talent, I was very fortunate to come under the tutelage of one Mr Paul Anthony – affectionately known as “the Lion of Lebanon” – at Pretoria Boys High School.

Alexander blow for under 21s
With regular 5-lock Stephan Lewies doing sterling duty for the senior side, the last thing that Sharks under 21 coach Etienne Fynn could really afford is to lose more “tall timber” ahead of Friday’s crunch clash at Loftus. An injury to regular number 8 Guy Alexander, though, has prompted a reshuffle that sees yet another change in the number 5 jersey this week. […]

Glenwood and College take on Pretoria Schools
It’s Old Boys Day at Glenwood on Saturday and to celebrate the occasion, the school has picked the second most difficult opponent in the country, Affies. It might seem like a brave decision to schedule the main game at the same time as the Sharks match but based on the importance of the occasion and the quality of the visitors, there is bound to be a big crowd in attendance.
