Rustenburg

Makazole Mapimpi is our impi! Mapimpi became the first South African to score a try in a World Cup final. The 29-year-old winger is not only admired for his incredible speed and wily tactics on the field, but also for his humbleness and his perseverance, not giving up on his dream to become a first-class player. And by realizing his dream, he has also helped to realize the dreams of Springbok supporters - including Roger Federer and Terry Crews - of a third World Cup victory. Even the South African Rand strengthened against the Dollar after the Springboks became world champions again! As a special bonus to our readers, we have a free pull-out feature on the success of our Springbok rugby team inside this week's edition. (Photo: Johan Orton, SASPA)

Theft out of vehicles on the rise

RUSTENBURG-RUSTENBURG- With the festive season just around the corner, the police in Rustenburg have had an increase in the number of theft out of vehicle cases. These crimes are encouraged by motor vehicle owners leaving valuables in plain sight in their vehicles, at shopping complexes as well as at their places of residence. "We would like to encourage motor vehicle owners to refrain from leaving valuables in their vehicles when they do their shopping or when they park their vehicles at home or anywhere," said Sergeant Ofentse Mokgadi, police spokesperson in Rustenburg. According to Mokgadi, leaving valuables such as laptops, cameras, cellphones, jewellery etc in your vehicle is the main thing that attracts criminals. Residents are discouraged from doing that and are also encouraged to report these crimes to their nearest police station. PAGE 4 RUSTENBURG HERALD 8 NOVEMBER 2019

Rugby World Cup 1995, 2007 + 2019 champions Die beker kom huis toe! Die Springbokke het nou in drie Wêreldbekerfinale gespeel en almal gewen - die enigste span wat nog nie ‘n finaal verloor het nie. Bomenslike verdediging, krag, spoed, hardnekkigheid, roer in vasbeslotenheid en die hoop van ‘n hele nasie en jy kry ‘n magiese mengsel wat dodelik vir die Engelse was. Suid-Afrika se 32-12 oorwinning oor die Rose was ongetwyfeld 'n gestruktureerde spanpoging wat die wind geheel en al uit die seile van Eddie Jones se span gehaal het en hul weerloos teen die Suid-Afrikaanse aanslag gelaat het. Alhoewel die oorwinning ‘n spanpoging was, het die geslepe Rassie se plan tog ruimte gelaat vir individuele briljantheid. Manne soos Tendai ‘Beast’Mtawarira, Duane ‘Thor’meulen, Makazole Mapimpi, Cheslin Kolbe, Lukhanyo Am, Damian de Allende en Pieter-Steph du Toit was uitsonderlik. En dan was daar Faf de Klerk. Daai knaap, né! Hy het weke se kritiek geneem en dit gebruik as brandstof om sy spelpeil te lig. Waar baie ander mense onder die geskellery uit alle oorde sou verkrummel, het hierdie ‘pocket rocket’ net na hoogste versnelling oorgeskakel en ‘n natuurkrag geword. Willie le Roux, wat deur baie as die swakste skakel in die span beskou is, het sy onsekerheid baasgeraak en ‘n soliede vertoning gelewer. In kort, die Springbokke het die Engelse op alle gebiede klaas gemaak - hulle het die Rose ‘n meesterklas in skrum gegee, en gewys hoe ondeurdringbaar verdediging kan wees. Afrigter Rassie Erasmus het bewys hy is beslis nie net ‘n mooi gesiggie nie - hy is ‘n fenominale strateeg. Dit was dus geen verrassing dat hy as Afrigter van die Jaar deur Wêreldrugby aangewys is nie. Die Springbokke het natuurlik die titel as Span van die Jaar verower, terwyl Pieter-Steph du Toit as Speler van die Jaar aangewys is.
