How do you feel about being named captain? Trots! Baie trots, grootste eer vir my en ‘n groot verrassing.

What are your strengths as a player and a captain? As speler is ek ratsig as ‘n haker en heelwat fiks, en as kaptein speel ek met passie en leiding.
How has your team’s season been? It has been filled with disruptions and plagued by injuries, but the team is finally starting to settle and growing from strength to strength.

Tell us the make-up of Saturday’s team, whether it’s an experienced or young group, full strength or missing some first-choice players … Ons speel elke wedstryd met ons beste span en Saterdag is geen verskil nie. By Linden speel ons elke wedstryd met trots vir die trui.
What is the recent history between the two school? In 2015 we lost the Clash, but we had a second bite of the cherry and beat them when it counted most in the Lions Big School Final. What are you expecting from them? Expecting a flued, quick-placed game with big collusions. What has been your message to your team this week? It’s a pride an honour to play in Randburg’s jersey and to always give your best. What are your plans for the future? To play for university.
What is the recent history between the two school? Laas jaar het ons die Derby gewen, maar ongelukkig in die Goue Leeus finaal verloor. What are you expecting from them? As tuisskool en die feit dat dit hulle skool se 50-jaar herdenking is, verwag ons ‘n klipharde Randburgspan wat ‘n punt sal wil bewys. What has been your message to your team this week? Omdat ons weg speel, gaan dit ‘n groot uitdaging wees. Speel vir die trui, staan elk sy man en gee net jou beste. What are your plans for the future? Wil universiteit toe gaan en ‘n graad kry, asook rugby speel as deel van my toekomsplanne.
