Sorry off-topic but how the fuck is Tashinga Makoni playing in the St George's this week?!?!? He's about 20. How the fuck do they get away with it? Absolutely ridiculous.

He's not even done that well :lol: His team-mates 2-3 years younger, Changa and Takawira look better already.

That Kamwemba had a very special knock yesterday. Some poor opposition but unbelievable power hitting regardless.

The standard gets lower every year though. No SA schools even bother attending anymore. Maybe they'll be at the St John's instead next month?

Serious? He was playing?
Have u not seen the cluster fuck with their u14 rugby?
Theyre all about 20 and John's and PH refused to play them at u14 and then their headmaster pulled the race card and refused any of the age groups to play. Disgusting fucking piece of shit.

Ya saw that, it's a disgrace. Genuinely dangerous in rugby as well obviously.

Makoni is playing for Wise Owl. Turns 20 next month, finished school last winter if not the one before. Played in the 2022 U19 WC. And here he is captaining, keeping and opening the batting for a school side in a school comp? Genuine disgrace.

Churchill and St George's probably need to take some tips from their rugby coaches and do some age cheating in cricket as well :lol: Because their cricket sides are in huge decline....

The depth of shit at schoolboy level with our cricket is monumental. There's no solution either.
Back to the George's thing. I think Ministry may have gotten involved. How is it ok to insist that 13 year old white boys (and a few black guys) be human cannon fodder for 16-18 year olds?
St George's should be made to sit out all sport against private schools for a year.
Shouldn't the Catholic Church intervene and sack that headmaster?
As I said that I realised the stupidity of it.
They covered for Father Cunning Penis who was allowed to have his way there for 20 years :lol:

Gladiators keep winning and this season it’s without Wes/Shumba/Munyonga/Madande who are all away.

I think they were unbeaten in last years NPL and there’s a chance they will be again. Team full of unheralded guys who don’t play franchise, almost all of them under 25. Surely one of the franchises should be having a look at some of these guys?

Malcolm Chikuwa hugely underrated as a coach.
