Paarl Gim are eager to avenge the loss they suffered on home turf last year, especially as it's Paul Roos’ 150 th year and they were recently crowned Sanix World School Rugby champions in Japan. These two schools share a long and rich history in rugby and the first recorded time Old Boys of the two schools played together for SA was in 1906, when the Springboks played Ireland in Belfast. That day Steve Joubert was the first of many Gimmies to represent his country - and his Bok captain was Paul Roos himself. In a reverse for 2015, current Spri ngbok captain Jean de Villiers is an old Gimmie, while Paul Roos’ latest Springbok, Willie le Roux, is also in the side. Recent Results Results over the last six years are even, with Paul Roos and Paarl Gim having won three apiece. Home advantage had little influence over the last two years, with Paarl Gim beating the hosts at their Markotter fields in 2013 and Paul Roos returning the favour last year. Results since 2009 Date Paul Roos Paarl Gim 2009/05/09 47 36 2010/05/08 27 30 2011/05/14 34 30 2012/05/12 8 28 2013/05/11 15 24 2014/05/10 16 10 2015 Season In their 150 th year celebration, Paul Roos are under constant pressure to perform well. So far they have not disappointed and have won all of their full matches, only going down to Rondebosch in a 20 minute each way friendly with no kicking for points allowed at Newlands. They have toured to Jap an to represent South Africa at the Sanix Youth World Rugby Championship and after six matches on a tight schedule they returned as holders of the gold medal. Coach Hein Kriek is a proud man after good wins over Affies, Jeppe, Monument and Grey High PE. Next, however, is the competitive Western Cape Schools league and if they can survive matches against Paarl Gim, Paarl Boys, Rondebosch, Boland Landbou and bogey team Bishops, they will truly have had a great season. Paul Roos Squad 2015: 15 Joshua Vermeulen, 14 Troy Payne, 13 Nico Leonard, 12 Sebastian Uys, 11 Jason Myburgh, 10 Damien Willemse, 9 Tiaan Coetzee, 8 De Wet Castelyn, 7 Roelf Burger, 6 Dean van Tonder, 5 Joa Swart, 4 Louis Conradie, 3 Dre Calitz, 2 R Matthee, 1 Muammir Salie. 16 Christia an van Deventer, 17 Abrie Coetzee, 18 Stephan Annandale, 19 Lazlo Pschorn, 20 Malan Basson, 21 Jacques Hanekom, 22 Hein Steenkamp, 23 Adrian van Niekerk In stark contrast to Paul Roos, Paarl Gimnasium has been moving under the radar to quietly go about their winning ways. They had people sit up and take notice, though, with their demolition job of Pietersburg at the Paul Roos 150 th festival day. They then wrapped up wins against Menlopark and Garsfontein in the North-South tournament before surprisingly going down to Bishops at the Piley Rees. A mixed bag followed at the Wildeklawer tournament where they had a good win against HTS Middelburg before drawing with Affies on the last day.

They have to date produced 30 Springboks, of which 20 have been capped in tests for South Africa. Incumbent Springbok captain Jean De Villiers is an old Gimmie.

Their annual showdown has the unofficial title of “Biggest Interschools” in South Africa. In 2012, while still at school, captain and pivot Handre Pollard represented South Africa at the U-20 World Cup with aplomb. Called up for the injured Johan Goosen, Pollard played a vital role in SA winning the final against New Zealand. He again represented the U-20s in 2013 and captained the side in 2014. The young man is currently plying his trade with the Blue Bulls Super15 team and, in 2014, he became Paarl Gim’s 20 th Springbok. Handre Pollard in the colours of Gim. Rugby at Paul Roos The words Paul Roos and rugby are synonymous. The great man was the originator of the famous Springbok emblem and name for the South African national team. He is seen by many as the father of South African rugby and it is fitting that the school that carries his name is such a powerhouse. Paul Roos has to date produced the most South African players to represent their country on a rugby field, with Juandre Kruger becoming their 50 th when he faced England at Kings Park on June 9 2012. Their latest Springbok is fullback Willie Le Roux, who earned his test cap against Italy in June 2013.

    “A lot of people have asked how can you squeeze another game at the end of a long season, but we see this as an honour... But the week is also a reward, because it is not as tense, you enjoy it with the boys and can have a few beers.” - Rassie Erasmus Volume 1, Number 18 06 December 2018 Register to receive your own free weekly newsletter at www.leopardnewsletters.co.za Fantastic Win for the Barbarians After a disappointing tour of the northern hemisphere, Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus honoured his commitment to coach the Barbarians against Argentina last weekend, and came away with the win. The fact that he selected no fewer than 13 current Springboks in his invitational side suggests that he considered the match an opportunity for more Springbok experimentation. The Baabaas scored first after a perfectly-timed inside ball from Schalk Brits paved the way for the first try by Juan Manuel Leguizamon, the Argentina international, scoring against his countrymen inside The Baabaas were first to score in the second half three minutes. But then, in the space of slightly more with Siya Kolisi cantering over but a Julian Montoya than 20 minutes, Argentina scored four tries, all of try and Joaquin Diaz Bonilla conversion restored which were converted. Argentina’s advantage barely five minutes later and then the Baabaas crossed the line again. With the Baabaas trailing 28-7 after spending considerable time in Argentina’s red zone, referee In the 75th minute Lood de Jager powered over for John Lacey awarded the home side a well-deserved the Baabaas fifth try and set Elton Jantjies up to level penalty try to take the score to 28-14, which was also the scores with four minutes left.
