For the second year running, young and old of the Thomian fraternity will congregate on Saturday, 8th of August to honour the memory of a personality, whose life has left a lasting impression on those who were fortunate enough to have known him. Within  rugby circles there’s probably no one that did not.

Rolling into the second week, the All Black’s visit to Ellis Park was the headline grabber, and the game did not disappoint as rugby fans the world-over were treated to yet another All Black-Springbok classic.

Last Sunday’s knock-out final brought the curtain down on the schools rugby season for 2015, but not without a shock of sorts. I thought it fit to put pen to paper to reflect on how some of the teams fared, giving some take-ways as they go back to the drawing board and prepare for next year’s challenge.
