Robertson Town is n\u00e1 drie wedstryde in die Sanlam-Boland-Top-12-kompetisie een van slegs twee spanne wat steeds onoorwonne en sterk in die wedloop vir \u2019n plek in die kampioenskapsrondes van di\u00e9 kompetisie is.<\/p>\n
Safcol van Grabouw is die ander span wat tot dusver al sy kragmetings in die kompetisie gewen het.<\/p>\n
Die werklike reg-of-weg-wedstryde kom egter eers aan die beurt sodra die groepwedstryde van die kompetisie afgehandel is.<\/p>\n
Saterdag (4 November) se wedstryd tussen Darling en Robertson Town op eersgenoemde se tuisveld sal vir seker lank onthou word vir die flink optrede van die skeidsregter, Lee Beukes, nadat \u2019n speler van Town, Lindsay Eksteen (linkervleuel), ernstig beseer is.<\/p>\n
Beukes het tydens die wedstryd opgemerk Eksteen is onvas op sy voete en het hard op sy fluitjie geblaas om die spel onmiddellik te stop. <\/p>\n
Tegelykertyd het hy hom na \u2019n steierende Eksteen, wat gelyk het of hy enige oomblik gaan omkap, gehaas, sy arms om sy middel geplaas en die speler so ondersteun totdat die mediese personeel bygekom het.<\/p>\n
Eksteen is op die veld gestabiliseer en daarna inderhaas per ambulans na die plaaslike hospitaal vervoer.<\/p>\n
Die beseerde Eksteen het vermoedelik erge harsingskudding in \u2019n kontakvoorval in die wedstryd opgedoen.<\/p>\n
Die wakker skeidsregter is later wyd op sosiale media vir sy blitsvinnige optrede, wat moontlik verdere skade vir Eksteen beperk het, geprys.<\/p>\n
Boodskappe van sterkte en \u2019n spoedige herstel het ook vir die beseerde vleuel op sosiale media ingestroom. <\/p>\n
Maar terug by die wedstryd . . . <\/p>\n
Robertson was in die eerste helfte heeltemal in beheer van di\u00e9 Sanlam-Boland-Top-12-kragmeting en het teen rustyd gemaklik met 20-7 voorgeloop.<\/p>\n
Die traumatiese gebeure rakende Eksteen se besering het die span in daardie stadium o\u00ebnskynlik \u2019n sielkundige knou toegedien.<\/p>\n
Hierteenoor het Darling in die tweede helfte weer met meer vuur en ondernemingsgees gespeel. Die tuisspan het nie net sy agterstand uitgewis nie, maar in die 50ste minuut selfs die voortou met die telling op 21-20 geneem.<\/p>\n
Die spanne het mekaar vir \u2019n ruk goed in toom gehou voordat hulle om die beurt \u2013 eers Town, toe Darling \u2013 \u2019n strafdoel deur die pale gejaag het, wat die telling 24-23 vir Darling gemaak het.<\/p>\n
Robertson het homself egter uiteindelik reggeruk en met \u2019n verdoelde drie in die 62ste minuut weer die voortou geneem. <\/p>\n
Town moes hierna verskeie aanslae van die tuisspan trotseer voordat hy die aksiebelaaide wedstryd eindelik met 30-24 in sy guns beklink het.<\/p>\n
Darling sal waarskynlik ongelukkig voel oor die pragdrie van sy kaptein, Earl Lewis, wat n\u00e1 \u2019n lang bespreking tussen Beukes (skeidsregter) en sy twee assistente, nie toegeken is nie.<\/p>\n
Tog het die einste Lewis n\u00e1 die wedstryd in \u2019n onderhoud grootmoedig erken dat die aantal geelkaarte (4) sy span gekniehalter en heel moontlik die wedstryd gekos het.NOG RUGBY-UITSLAE:<\/b>Groot Uitdaag (Top-12)<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n
