esthetical assets are respected and treasured. Residents are hopeful that better care will henceforth be taken of the garden surrounding the fountain as well. The building is also being attended to: a new roof over the cental part (above the
enttainment hall etc ) is being fitted and a fresh coat of paint, inside and on the outside, is said to be on the cards as well. Could this be the beginning of a new approach to the restoration of the town’s appearance?

The mangled wreck of a Limpopo Department of Labour vehicle has been “parked” on the rooftop parking area of the Letaba Mall (old Shoprite) in Tzaneen since August. The Limpopo Department of Labour’s spokesperson, Lerato Makomene, stated “the department is aware about the condition of the car in question which was involved in an accident and it is beyond repair. Procedurally, when a car is damaged beyond repair, the department contacts the service provider to inspect the extent of the damage before selling it. Moreover internal processes have resumed to dispose the vehicle that is at the labour centre. She was not willing to disclose the name of the service provider but added that “the accident occurred in Georges Valley and it was indeed in August”.

Vlieg
Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk...
Vlieg wil nou nie op Oubal se bejaarde tone trap nie, maar gun Vlieg die geleentheid om na afloop van die Biltongbokke se groepwedstryde ‘n enkele eiertjie te lê. Omdat dit sover maar sukkel-sukkel gegaan het, soos Vlieg vermoed het dit sou gaan, en die volgende wedstryd waarskynlik einste Bokke se swanesang in vanjaar se kompetisie gaan wees, wil Vlieg graag vandeesweek vir oulaas ‘n nommertjie opdra aan Heyneke, met die hoop dat hy dit ter harte sal neem. Miskien is dit tyd om terug te keer koshuisrugby toe! Daarvoor sal selfs ‘n suinige ou bliksem soos Vlieg ‘n munt in die put gooi! “Wishing Well” Take off your hat Kick off your shoes, I know you ain’t going anywhere. Run ‘round the town Singing your blues
www.bulletin.us.com
Vlieg wens!
I know you ain’t going anywhere. You have always been A good friend of mine But you’re always saying farewell And the only time that you are satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well. Throw down your gun You might shoot yourself, Or is that what you are tryin’ to do, Put up a fight You believe to be right And someday the sun will shine through. You have always got Something to hide Something you just can’t tell And the only time that you are satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Die menings, uitsprake, standpunte, verwysings, komplimente, beledigings, humor, ensovoorts, van Vlieg is nie noodwendig dié van die Bulletin of die eienaar en personeel van die koerant nie!

Oorlogverhaal belaai met liefde ‘n Greep uit die verre verlede wat steeds saak maak was die inspirasie vir Estelle Botha se roman Rose van Schweizer-Reneke, wat onlangs in Tzaneen vrygestel is. Dis ‘n werk van toewyding aan ‘n matriarg wat uiteindelik sin kon sien uit onsinnighede in haar leeftyd, toe ‘n vreemde en byna ondenkbare orde aan die dag was. Botha het uit vertellings van nasate en navorsing ‘n verhaal saamgestel wat ‘n vrymoedige blik op die aansien van mense in oorlogtyd gee. Die verhaal

speel hom af tussen 1901 en 1916, toe duisende vroue en kinders in konsentrasiekampe vasgevang was. Die roman is gegrond op ‘n ware verhaal oor haar voormoeder wie se stryd teen onreg uiteindelik met vergifnis en geloof vervang is. Die skrywer woon in Tzaneen en kom uit ‘n huis waar die skryfkuns lank reeds gevestig is. Haar pa, Abel Botha, het ‘n reeks boeke oor die jagtersbedryf die lig laat sien.

Baljubedrieër nog soek Die man wat nou weer in die Mopani-distrik rondgaan en homself as balju voordoen en mense se geld steel, is nog op vrye voet. Die publiek word gewaarsku om baie versigtig te wees en in alle omstandighede eers seker te maak dat die man homself behoorlik kan identifiseer (met ‘n plastiekkaart, soos ‘n kredietkaart, met die balju se foto en besonder-
hede, asook die volle besonderhede van die Raad van balju’s). Intussen het die Bulletin verlede week ‘n liederlike fout begaan, toe ons weens ‘n kommunikasie-misverstand ‘n naam, adres, kontaknommer en selfs die identiteitsnommer van ‘n gerespekteerde sakeman as dié van die bedrieër in ons berig aangedui het.
Dié man het uitgebreide sakebelange in die Laeveld. Hy is deur die bedrieër genader oor ‘n moontlike eiendomstransaksie — kompleet soos die vorige bedrieër, ene mnr Ngwako Kgatla; wat steeds soek is, omdat hy vals adresse gebruik het. • Ons stel graag die fout reg en as dit enige ongerief vir iemand veroorsaak het, bied Colourful celebration... Tolerance for one another’s heritage can only make South Africa a stronger and richer nation. That ons verskoning aan. — Redakteur
was the notion made at Heritage Day Celebrations at Maake Plaza. “The main aim is to remind the younger generation about our heritage, celebrating the imparted knowledge, the skills, the belief systems, rituals, stories, music, dance, arts, crafts, food and drinks from our different cultures,” said Orie Mbedzi the centre supervisor. Performances by different local cultural groups, representing the diversity around the area were enjoyed by the people. Photo: Phidelia Rikhotso
Ellen Maria Erasmus (geb Grobler) 14 November 1939 – 29 Septembe 2015
The Mercy Air team once again embarked on an outreach into Mozambique. This time they visited the rural area of Chimoio just a few kilometres east of the Zimbabwean border. The purpose of their week-long visit was to offer free hearing tests to more than 250 school-aged children in this deep rural community. Audiometrists from Kind2Hearing in Tzaneen screened these children for possible hearing
loss or damage to their ears which can greatly affect their abilities for studying and learning at school. The group departed on Tuesday morning in a Quest Kodiak 12-seater plane from Nelspruit (after a day’s delay due to clearance issues and permit challenges from the Mozambican side). Bulletin will carry a report on the outcome of their trip next week.
Ellen is gebore in Pretoria as die oudste van die eerstelingtweeling van ds Gerhard en me Grobler, toe van Potgietersrus/Koedoesrand. Sy het grootgeword en skool gegaan in Ermelo, Boksburg en Pretoria. Sy het na skool onderwys gestudeer en in junior onderrig gespesialiseer. Sy het onder meer ook by die Transoranje Skool vir Dowes onderrig gegee. Toe haar kinders haar aandag geverg het, het sy dikwels tyde-
lik by skole gehelp en was uiteindelik tot met haar aftrede heeltyds verbonde aan die
Bankuna Hoërskool in Nkowankowa. Na haar aftrede het sy in Haenertsburg gaan woon. Sy laat haar kinders Lourens, Gerhard (Chatz), Jannas en Tienie (Sussa), skoonkinders Tersia, Corlia en Dirk agter, asook die kleinkinders Jean-Marie, Theo, Petro, Jabes, Christiaan, Gerhardus, Isanelle en Luka. ‘n Roudiens vir haar word more (Saterdag) om 15:00 in die Ned Herv Kerk Tzaneen gehou.

Mr Moyana Mokatisei (50) has been a familiar sight in Tzaneen for the past nine years. He walks on the outskirts of the town daily selling his small to large feather dusters and brooms. He makes them himself and travels at least twice a year to Oudtshoorn in the Cape to buy the ostrich feathers. He travels there by bus and taxi and then returns by taxi with a 25 kg load of feathers. The only time he doesn’t work is when it rains as the rainwater damages the feathers. Mokatisei delivers his wares to the homes of his customers if they so desire. He goes home to Zimbabwe once a year to visit his wife and children. Mokatisei says that he couldn’t earn enough money in Zimbabwe to support his family, so he had to come down to South Africa. — Copy & photo: Sue Ettmayr

M.O.T.H Revival Me Charmaine Beetge, die netbalorganiseerder by die Hoërskool Ben Vorster en wyd erkende netbalafrigter, is aangewys as die ontwikkelingsbeampte vir Netbal Suid-Afrika. Dit is ‘n baie groot eer vir haar en inderdaad ook vir Tzaneen, die Laeveld en Limpopo!
Die Boodskap Dr Jan Truter Ned Herv Kerk Letsitele
Is daar diepte? Die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit is besig om gebreke wat die belastingbetalende inwoners van die dorp erg irriteer, reg te stel of daaraan te verbeter. Slaggate in strate word herstel, die kenmerkende waterfontein voor die munisipale hoofgebou is herstel en lyk beter as toe dit splinternuut was, die nuwe swembad sal eersdaags in gebruik geneem word en dies meer. Eweneens is daar ander en groter frustrasies wat egter sloer. Die informele sektor (smouse) wat nie beheer word nie, die taxis wat doen wat hulle wil en ander motoriste se veiligheid en reg op die gebruik van die strate/paaie minag, gesondheidsregulasies wat selektief en diskriminerend toegepas word, infrastruktuur wat toegelaat word om tot niet te gaan en die verfraaiing van die dorp wat afgeskeep word, ensovoorts. Is dit wat wel gedoen word en waarvoor die inwoners dankbaar behoort te wees, ‘n oppervlakkige aksie met die oog op volgende jaar se munisipale verkiesings? Dit lyk so en die stadsraadslede sal naief wees as hulle dink hulle kan die dorp se inwoners bluf met oppervlakkige vensterversierings.

‘n Man in ‘n klein dorpie het ‘n verskriklike skinderstorie oor ‘n ander man versprei. Die storie was nie net onwaar nie, maar het die ander man en sy familie geweldige skade berokken. Soos die gebruik in so ‘n klein dorpie gewoonlik is, is die man na die hoof van die dorpie gebring, wat ook as die regter gedien het om die saak aan te hoor en straf uit te deel, as hy skuldig sou wees. Nadat die hoof van die dorpie die saak aangehoor het, het hy die man wat die skinderstorie versprei het, skuldig bevind. Hy moes gestraf word. Die straf, wat die ou regter vir die man uitgedink het, was om hom ‘n sak vere te gee en hom aangesê om voor die deur van elke persoon aan wie hy die skinderstorie vertel het, ‘n veer te gaan neersit. Die man was baie verlig oor die ligte straf. Hy het dadelik begin om die vere te plaas en vier ure later het hy teruggekeer na die regter en gesê: “My taak is voltooi, is daar nog iets anders, wat u van my verlang?” “Ja”, het die ou regter gesê. “Kom môreoggend baie vroeg terug na my, vir die tweede deel van jou straf”. Die man was die volgende oggend weer vroeg by die regter om die tweede deel van sy straf te ontvang. Toe gee die regter vir hom dieselfde sak en sê: “Gaan haal nou weer al die ve-

re, wat jy gister uitgeplaas het en sit hulle in die sak terug en bring dit vir my!” Die man was moedeloos. “U edele, het die man gesê, het u dan nie die verskriklike storm gisteraand gehoor, wat deur ons dorpie getrek het nie? Die wind het ontsettend sterk gewaai. Dit sal vir my onmoontlik wees om weer al daardie vere bymekaar te maak!” Die ou regter het lank na die man gestaar en toe vir hom gesê: “Sien jy nou wat jy aangevang het? Alhoewel jy net ‘n paar stories, wat onwaar was, hier en daar vertel het, is ‘n storm van skindery begin. Jy sal nooit weer almal in die hande kan kry om die saak reg te maak nie, want jy weet nie hoe ver die storie al gewaai het nie. Jy kan spyt wees oor wat jy gesê het, maar jy sal nooit weer regtig kan regmaak, wàt jy gesê het nie!” Jakobus 3: 5 skryf hieroor. Hy sê dat die tong ‘n baie magtige ding is. “’n Klein vuurtjie kan ‘n groot bos aan die brand steek.” Kom ons dink mooi, voordat ons stories oor ander versprei. Slaan ag op Jakobus se woorde: “My geliefdes, so moet dit nie wees nie. ‘n Fontein laat tog nie uit dieselfde oog vars en brak water opborrel nie” (Jakobus 3: 10-11). Ons kan nie die Here loof en ander mense beswadder, met een en dieselfde tong nie! Die Zoeloes het ‘n baie mooi spreuk wat sê: “As jou tong in ‘n mes verander, sny jy jou eie lippe af!”

Put your phones down! Although there are fines in place for distracted driving, the habit of drivers’ texting and talking on hand held cell phones continues unabated in Limpopo Province. Look in your rear view mirror and watch the drivers behind you. Watch the drivers in front of you. Any odd movement is often due to their attention being on something else and that something else is more often than not a cell phone communication. Many drivers will say that they can multi-task but this is a fallacy. The Automobile Association of South Africa says that distracted driving accounts for between 25 and 50 percent of all accidents. Meanwhile in Canada, the Ontario Transportation Minister, Mr
Steven Del Duca, said at a recent press conference, “Fatalities from distracted driving are expected to
exceed those from drinking and driving by 2016.” It is not only cell phones that are responsible for distracted driving. A local mother was taking her twoyear-old son to Forest Hill nursery school in Haenertsburg one morn-
ing. The son, always strapped in his chair on the back seat, wanted his bottle of juice. The mother grabbed the bottle, passed it to him and then turned around to see whether her son was content. That split second turn caused her to lose control and the car veered off the road into the gulley on the left. The mother swung the car hard to the right but lost control. The car spun at a 45 degree angle across the road, fortunately with no oncoming traffic, overturned and came to a halt when it hit a tree in the pine forest. The toddler was unharmed and still strapped in his chair on the back seat. The young mother was taken to MediClinic Tzaneen where she was admitted with a
broken wrist and fractured ribs. The car was a write off and the mother is fully aware that she had a very lucky escape. She says this has taught her the valuable lesson to keep her eyes on the road at all times. Her adherence to keep her child safe in the back seat is commendable as there are so many irresponsible parents who give their children carte blanche in cars. Back in Canada, where Toronto has a population of just over two million, Chief Mark Saunders said the Toronto Police Service has issued over 91,000 distracted driving offence notices since 2010. The state of Ontario in Canada has introduced stiff new penalties for distracted driving and the new fine is $490 which translates into about R4 900. Sue Ettmayr

The DR Church Wolkberg in Tzaneen felt it necessary to treat the senior citizens of their congregation to a little bit of tasty heaven last week. Members of the church along with their reverend, ds Adriaan van Tonder, presented a wonderful buffet of the finest homemade cuisine themed “Kokkedoor” which included roasts, quiches, pastries and some of the
finest desserts this side of the Bushveld. Each of the guests were handed a surprise note detailing a specific style in which they had to arrange and present their meal on their plates. The presentations were then judged by a distinguished panel of palatable professionals and the winners announced. Each of the lucky winners was presented with a gift. During the luncheon, various talks were held to educate the attendees on the value of healthy eating, how to supplement their diet and live healthier, happier lives. Mss Wilma Steyn, Ilza Roelofse, Noelene van Wyk, Margie van Tonder, ds Adriaan van Tonder, Mss Elsa van der Westhuizen, Sulette Jordaan, Petro Engelbrecht, Elna Wandrag and Adel Skãr were the “kitchen staff ” who prepared the exquisite food for the seniors.

Equities – not for everybody We are well aware that an adviser’s job is never done. No matter how thoroughly you explained to your clients what to expect from the equity market, when markets suddenly fall and alarmed investors start to call, the toughest part of your client journey starts: assuring investors that choppy waters too can lead to the right destination. Colin Shaw, author of ‘Building great customer experiences’ was one of the first client experience designers to draw attention to the fact that the client experience starts with an expectation and ends with an emotion. The better businesses prepare clients for the potential negative experiences that may lie ahead, the better are the chances of a positive emotional outcome. This is the approach used by Smit Advisors when advising clients on equities. We’ve therefore decided to share an informative article about equities by the Head of Retail Business of Sanlam Investments, Mr Carl Rootman, with our existing and prospective clients. Rootman says:
ALSI had recovered from its lows. Investors in the equity market for the year from September 2008 to September 2009 would therefore not even have regained their capital, let alone keeping up with inflation. Equities are therefore absolutely not for clients wanting to invest for periods shorter than three years. The risk of losing money in real terms is simply too high.
It’s, however, extremely difficult to predict when, and by how much, markets will rise and fall. If your clients sell in a panic after the first signs of a market correction, they may miss out on good performance days, resulting in an overall drop in their return. Where you don’t want to be on the good market days is out of the market. And there’s no way you can predict when those days will be. Besides, historical ALSI data indicates that it is highly likely long-term equity investors will reap positive real returns when they invest for 10 years or longer and highly unlikely that they will lose any capital when they invest for five years or longer.
mance with that of their peers, often leading to buyers’ remorse and switching to the funds that outperformed recently. According to a study by Dalbar, over the past 30 years the average investor in an equity unit trust in the US earned an average of 3,8% a year — a third of the Standard & Poor’s 500’s average 11,1%! This is mainly due to switching in and out of funds at the wrong time, chasing outperformance — an exercise which is more often than not counterproductive.
• Try and time the market
Seasoned investor Peter Lynch said, “Far more money has been lost by investors preparing for corrections, or trying to anticipate corrections, than has been lost in corrections themselves.” Because of the asset class’s proven long-term inflation-beating characteristic, investors with very long-term horizons (10 years or more) should remain as fully invested in equities as possible at all times. Those who want to try and time the market, switching out when they think the market is close to its peak and switch back in again when it’s close to the Equities are not for those who… bottom, can try the casino instead. They may have better luck there. • Invest for the short term Timing the market is just not worth the risk. Investors driven by greed or sometimes • Panic easily desperation, needing to make up a shortfall Short-term volatility of the equity market is in terms of a future liability, such as their children’s university education, often turn to shares perfectly normal. Every time the market corto boost their wealth fast. But equities are not rects (fall by more than 10%) your clients may want to get out of the market ASAP. But, if they there for those wanting to make a quick buck. In September 2008, world financial markets look at the two graphs below, they’ll see that came under severe pressure and the ALSI re- the ALSI has risen far more than it has fallen, acted by losing around a third of its value up and the long-term trend of the market has alto year-end. Only by mid-November 2009, the ways been upward.

• ‘Watch the pot’
With the advent of real-time investment reporting, your clients can now view their portfolio values online on a daily basis. While the rise in transparency is positive, the flipside is that investors who tend to ‘watch the pot boil’ are now more likely to compare their funds’ perfor-
Advice for everybody
To summarise, when investing for growth, equities are instrumental. As financial ‘insiders’ we need to get the following three things right, though: • Make sure our clients have the right equity allocation % for the right timeframe • Manage our clients’ expectations before they commit to the investment • Help our clients to stay the course — let the market do the rest.

Matrics say farewell in style
It was all glitz, glamour and style when the Class of 2015 of both Ben Vorster High School and Merensky High School said farewell during their official farewell functions. The theme for the Vossies’ function was The Oscars, while the Plasies enjoyed their own Rio Carnival. By albei die aanbiedings was daar
oorgenoeg om die matrieks, die skole se personeellede, ouers van die leerlinge en ander gaste en toeskouers gereeld na hul asems te laat snak. Die uitrustings, die dekor, die detail... alles het ‘n toonbeeld gevorm van baie moeite wat gedoen is (en baie beursies wat diep omgedop is).

Plasies knor by SA kompetisie
Gereed vir die aksie: Amelia Middleton, Christelle Coetzer, Michelle Stevens, Robert Retief, Alex Strydom en Armand Cronjé.
Oppie Kassie On the Telly TV sal wys hoe huil fris manne in Engeland Die Traanrivier sal dié naweek ál sterker vloei namate verskeie lande se drome van welslae in die Wêreldbeker-rugbytoernooi tot ʼn einde kom. Baie spelers gaan — soos dikwels op televisie gewys word — op die gras sit en huil. En hul ondersteuners in die paviljoene en voor die TV-skerms gaan meedoen, al het hul spanne darem die kwarteindronde gehaal. Australië se wedstryd teen Wallis is allig dié naweek se hoogtepunt, want die Springbokke speel nie en Nieu-Seeland behoort Tonga se deelname aan die toernooi te beëindig. Mense wat hulle nie aan rugby steur nie — en daar ís nogal heelparty — kan hulle aan die eendaagse krieket tussen Suid-Afrika en Indië verlustig. Dan is daar ook nog die Presidentebeker-gholf in Korea, die Russiese Grand Prix vir renmotors en die Japanse motorfiets-Grand Prix.
Ses bergfietsryers van die Hoërskool Merensky het die afgelope naweek aan die Spur SA Skolebergfietskompetisie deelgeneem — waar bergfietrsryers van skole uit al nege die land se provinsies asook van Botswana, Namibië en Zimbabwe deelgeneem het. Dit was die eerste keer dat Merensky aan die kompetisie deelgeneem het en Christelle Coetzer, Michelle Stevens, Arman Cronjé, Robert Retief, Amelia Middleton en Alex Strydom het hulle baie goed van hul taak gekwyt. ‘n Skolekompetisie is Saterdag gehou, toe die in uitmergelende hitte twee tot vyf rondes van vyf kilometer elk moes aflê, om punte vir
Ben Vorster wen swem Die jaarlikse interhoër swemgala is by die Hoërskool Frans du Toit gehou, waar swemmers van Frans du Toit, Ben Vorster en Merensky mekaar in die water aangedurf het. Die Vossie-span het as algehele wenners uit die stryd getree en al vyf top-
bekers verower. Hul puntetotaal was 433, Merensky was tweede met 248 en die Fransies het 222 punte ingesamel. Die Vossies het ook vyftien van die sestien aflosse gewen, 62 medaljes huis toe gebring (29 goud ; 19 silwer; 14 brons) en die
hul skool in te samel. Christelle het hier vyfde geëindig, met Michelle in die twaalfde plek en Armand 27ste. Sondag moes die ryers in ‘n individuele kompetisie twee tot drie rondes in hul onderskeie ouderdomsgroepe aflê. Christelle (o.14) het die derde plek ingepalm, Michelle (o.18) het veertiende oor die wenstreep gejaag en Armand (o.14) was 21ste. Die ongeluk het Amelia getref en na ‘n slegte val kon sy nie die wedren voltooi nie. Christelle en Armand het Sondag Limpopo verteenwoordig, wat algeheel in die vyfde plek geeïndig het.

Mountain bikers from Merensky High School battled it out in Louis Trichardt during the Tour de Lip challenge. This was the fourth and final leg of the schools XCO MTB series. Five Plasie bikers proved their worth, and were included in the Limpopo team for the Spur National Championship. In the Tour de Lip, Christelle Coetzer came first in the girls u.14 event. Third positions were claimed by Armand C r o n j e , (boys u.14), Robert Retief
(boys u.17) and Michelle Stevens (girls u.18). Janco Fritz, Sheldon Muller, Jordan Stevens, Amelia Middleton, Chelsea Schlebusch, Jenna Devenish, Natasha Janse van Rensburg, Bernice Cronjé and Simoné Pretorius also clocked good times. Seen here before the race were Natasha Janse van Rensburg, Simoné Pretorius, Bernice Cronjé and Michelle Stevens.
The Pfunanane Academy cross country team had another successful LLSV cross country meeting at Merensky, winning sixteen medals, nine of them gold, and eleven team competitions. Pictured are front: Ratile Lerutla, Lehlohonolo Mokgalaotse, Thabane Ramalepe, Tumisang As part of the Presidents’ Award presented by Merensky High School, eighteen spirited candidates attempted the special Magoebaskloof hike. Their enthusiasm quickly showed when they formed two teams, namely the Samango’s and the Cape Parrots. Each team had a war cry and even organized bandannas to match. They were also quizzed on these highly endangered species. For most of them it was their first experience in the beautiful indigenous forest, with picture perfect vistas. The second day an 18 km hike led to the Dokolewa Pools hut. This route is not only long, but rates eight out of a maximum ten on the difficulty level. Numerous streams had to be crossed, and chains had to be used to gain access over severe cliffs. Twelve junior hikers went home, proud that they overcame this 29 km challenge in their quest to achieve the bronze award this year. The remaining six hikers then completed their prescribed challenge of 49 kilometers, in order to achieve their silver award. They girls were accompanied by Mss Willemien van Niekerk (organiser), Magriet van der Merwe, Yolande Rautenbach and Sunette van Gass. Seen here are the silver award candidates: Riëtte Warmenhoven, Valeriia Avdysh, JJ de Wet, Chelsea Schlebusch, Jenna Devenish and Amelia Middleton.

Vossies wen krieketstryd
In die jaarlikse krieket-ligawedstryd tussen die hoërskole Ben Vorster en Merensky het die Vossies se eerste span sowel as die o.15’s met hul bure afgereken. Die Vosies se eerste span het die loot gewen en besluit om eerste te kolf, op ‘n snikhete dag. Met hul rug teen die muur op 88 vir die verlies van 5 paaltjies in die 18de boulbeurt, het die Vossies se kaptein, Don Radebe (54 lopies), en middelorde-kolwer Aubrey van Renen (46 lopies) hul span weer op koers gekry met ‘n vennootskap van ‘n 103 lopies om die 6de paaltjie. Caelen Retief, met 33 lopies op nommer 9, en Jean-Pierre Prinsloo met 21 nun het Ben Vorster gehelp tot ‘n mededingende 260 in hul toegelate 50 boulbeurte. Deon van Zyl, Ben Vorster se knap wegbreekbouler, het die eerste slag in die eerste boulbeurt geslaan, deur Merensky se topopeningskolwer op middebaan te laat uitvang. Hy het Ben Vorster se eerste krieketspan was te sterk vir hul bure en het Merensky met 198 lopies gewen. Hier is die eerste span se daarna nog drie paaltjies laat spelers saam met hul afrigter na die wedstryd teen Merensky. kantel, vir ‘n indrukwekkende
boulontleding van 10 beurte, 3 leeg, slegs 8 lopies afgestaan en 4 paaltjies omgeklits. Hy is ook goed bygestaan deur Radebe, wat drie paaltjies vir slegs 7 lopies geneem het in 4 boulbeurte, en Philip Bester wat 3 paaltjies vir 19 lopies gekry het. Merensky is vir 62 lopies in 25,5 boulbeurte uitgeboul en die Vossies het die wedstryd dus met 198 lopies gewen. Die Vossies se o.15A’s het op hul beurt Merensky se o.15A’s met 56 lopies getroef. Merensky het die loot gewen en die Vossies ingestuur om eerste te kolf. Hulle het die Vossies tot 157 lopies, almal uit, in 32,1 boulbeurte beperk. Johan Harms met 31 lopies, Gideon Vorster met 19 en Wilco J v Rensburg met 14 het gehelp om dié telling te haal. Fumani Maluleke met 4 paaltjies, bybreekbouler J v Rensburg met 3 paaltjies en wegbreekbouler Roehan Steenkamp met 2 paaltjies het gehelp om Merensky tot 101 lopies, almal uit, in 29,5 boulbeurte te beperk.
Quad biker Wilmari fearless to the end Merensky High School’s Wilmari Moller (Extreme ATV Tzaneen Honda) has become a true champion as SA’s No 1! She raced in the two final rounds of the TOTPAK National Off-road Motorcycle and Quad Championships in Worcester. This event will be remembered as being tough and demanding on riders and their equipment. Blistered hands, sore bodies and hammered racing
machines were proof that these two races will go down as the bulldogs of the 2015 season. The fact that they had to complete two events over three days, and the dusty, rocky and sandy route, added to the pressure. Each day started with a time-trial of between 50 and 55 kilometres that determined the starting order for the 300 km race. Unfortunately Wilmari (Gr 10) had an accident on the first day and couldn’t complete the race.
On Day 2 she again had a setback, but managed to finish the race. The judges took all the season’s scores into account, resulting in Wilmari finishing in the overall number one off-road quad category position of all the lady competitors in South Africa. She also achieved a second place in the combined category (quads and two-wheelers) and is the youngest female in the championships to win a title. Wilmari Moller in action on her quad.

Glory for Merensky’s Kevin van den Bergh Tzaneen het nog ‘n paar netbalafrigters wat Netbal SA se Vlak 2-kursus geslaag het, bygekry. Hier is mee Ansie Combrinck (Hoërskool Merensky), Monique Lombard (Hoërskool Ben
Sink laag, Stryd(lose)wa! Oubal het voorheen die mening uitgespreek dat die “beste” ‘n saak van opinie is, maar dit smaak hom dieselfde geld vir “goed”. ‘Tja, in die GASK* verlede Sondag sê deurwinterde rakbieskrywer Bokkie Gerber die Bokke het dom en siellose rakbie teen Skotland gespeel. Skaars ‘n paragraaf verder spreek gesoute afrigter Brendan Venter die mening uit dat dit die beste Bokwedstryd in ‘n lang tyd was. Wie’s reg en wie’s verkeerd, of is dit ’n kwessie van die glas wat halfleeg is vir een en halfvol vir die ander? Oubal dink neef Bokkie tipeer die gemoed wat na Japan gaande is onder knorpotte en brombere, en anti-Heyneke sentimental-

iste in die algemeen. Diesulkes, wat onophoudelik kerm dat die Bokke meer soos die AB’s moet speel, moet dalk kennis neem van wat Graham Henry te sê gehad het na Engeland se onseremoniële uitboendering uit hul eie WB. Neef Graham reken die fout wat die Engelse afrigter Stuart Lancaster gemaak het, was om soos die AB’s te wil speel terwyl hulle nie die mannekrag daarvoor, of ‘n kultuur daarvan het nie. Die gevolg was dat hulle op hul tradisionele sterkpunt, hul skrums en voorspelerspel, deur Australië (van alle spanne!) ore aangesit is. Die Engelse strydwa se wiele het skouspelagtig afgeval! Oubal dink baie van wat neef Graham sê, is ook op die Bokke van toepassing. En laat ons nou maar eerlik wees en erken dit was nie net die Bokke wat Japan onderskat het nie — na wat die Japanners Saterdag met Samoa gedoen het, dink Oubal dit is duidelik dat álmal hulle onderskat het; Oubal inkluis. Die konteks van Japan se oorwinning oor Samoa het
Kevin van den Bergh, promising young rugby player of Merensky High School, is on his way to Georgia in the USA. Together with six other Plasies, Kevin played for the u.16 Far North team. He and Jason Rodriques were then chosen to play
for the invitational team, to determine who has the guts to obtain the glory of being chosen for the SA Bokkie team. All of Merensky wishes Kevin well in America, where the Bokkies will play three matches against teams from all over the world.
direkte implikasies vir die Bokke teen Skotland daarna gehad — wen, maak nie saak hoe nie, want verloor sou beteken die Bokke hinkepink ook huis toe soos die Engelse. Oubal hoop neef Bokkie het ook verlede Vrydag gekyk hoe die AB’s teen Georgië gespeel het. Toegegee, die eindtelling van 4310 skep die indruk dat NZ totaal in beheer was, maar hulle hou-die-bal-in-die-handten-alle-koste benadering het die onaanskoulikste AB-wedstryd in Oubal-heugenis tot gevolg gehad. As dít besielend rakbie is, kan neef Bokkie dit gerus maar vir homself hou. Net, neef Bokkie, daar is meer as een manier van rakbie speel en wanneer die situasie dit vereis, is loopgraafoorlogvoering meer effektief as blitzkrieg. Vra vir Hitler en vra vir Skotland. Die Bokke was klinies en meedoënloos, en behalwe vir een blaps (speel wyd ten alle koste!) wat tot ‘n onderskepdrie gelei het, was hulle totaal in beheer. Oubal het ‘n spesmaas dit gaan die resep wees vir die uitspeelrondes wat voorlê — met Suid-Afrika en sonder Engeland. Eerder
nou daarop voorberei as om jou siel te verkoop met tierlantyntjies! Oubal het besonderse genot geput uit twee vlietende oomblikke tydens die Bokke se wedstryd. Die eerste was skeidsregter Nigel Owens se opmerking teenoor die Skotse heelagter Stuart Hogg na ‘n teatrale duikslag wat op ‘n effense stampie gevolg het: “Probeer dit weer, en jy kom oor twee weke terug om te speel!” Welgedaan, Nigel, hierdie is nie sokker nie, die eindstryd wink vir jou. Die tweede was om te sien hoe Heyneke na ‘n suksesvolle Bok-strafskop op sy vingers tel om van 26 by 29 uit te kom. Dít was nie slim nie, Heyneke, jou sakrekenaar is in die pos! *GASK = Grootste Afrikaanse Sondagkoerant “Whose starward eye saw chariot “swing low”?
