Young Standards het, soos verwag, Simondium van die veld af gespeel, met 57-17 gewen en is danksy \u2019n beter punteverskil wel bo Young Gardens op die punteleer. Beide spanne is op 62 en \u2019n punteverskil sal dalk nie meer van toepassing wees nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die scenario is eenvoudig. Young Gardens moet Saterdag vir Riverstones met \u2019n bonuspunt verslaan en Young Standards moet Laer Paarl Saterdag klop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Laer Paarl is tans derde en Riverstones vierde en geen rugbyadministrateur, toeskouer of speler kan vir \u2019n beter einde vir die 2023-ligaseisoen gevra het nie. Watter span ook al die liga wen, sal die titel verdien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Young Standards se tweede span het met sy 41-8-oorwinning reeds die tweedespanliga vir \u2019n tweede agtereenvolgende jaar beklink en sal graag sy 2023-seisoen op \u2019n hoogtepunt wil afsluit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In die derdespankompetisie kan Riverstones (27) die derdespanliga beklink indien hy Young Gardens (27) kan verslaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Riverstones het nog een wedstryd teen Violets se derde span oor en sal alles in die stryd wil werp om sy feesjaar met \u2019n ligabeker af te sluit.<b>Uitslae: <\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Young Standards 57-17 Simondium<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Young Gardens 36-21 Paarl Rangers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Laer Paarl 24-8 Violets<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Riverstones 39-3 Perel United<b>Naweek-bepalings vir 16 September:<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simondium t.
