An exciting weekend is expected in the Sedgars SWD Premier League for this weekend as the competition is approaching the half-way stage.
Log Leaders George (21 points after six matches) will have a bye this weekend and with all the provincial players available the log can change significantly after the weekend. Western Hope – who are in the second position on 21 points after 7 matches – will also have a bye while Union Stars, the defending champions, who will be in action on Saturday (vs Mossel Bay) and Pirates United (on Sunday) can improve their position. Union Stars are third on 20 points (after 6 matches) followed by Sussex (19 points after 7 matches) and Mossel Bay (18 points after 7 matches).
NMMU George, who will have two, matches this weekend – against Sussex on Saturday and against Harlequins on Sunday, are still without a victory and will be keen to change their fortunes.
