Hoërskool Tygerberg play Hoërskool Brackenfell in an FNB Classic Clash on Saturday. It obis a great occasion for both schools and communities.
It will be a tough task for Brackenfell as Tygerberg have a super side this year and tend to play more often and against top teams. In addition Brackenfell will be without their star Cheslin Kolbe who was the attacking fullback for the Western Province Craven Week side. He has been instructed by SA Sevens not to play. That's rough. Take their star out of a team like Brackenfell and you come close to destroying them.
