Titanic local rugby clash on cards

RICHARDS Bay and Mancosa Rhinos both suffered massive defeats over the weekend in the first round of the Castle Murray Cup played on Saturday.

At home, Richards Bay went down 48-0 to Amanzimtoti, with Rhinos losing to College Rovers 78-13 at Mick Kelly Park.

All winners from round one will now compete in the Castle Murray Cup, with the losers competing in the Junior Murray Cup competition.

The second teams will enter the frame of both competitions, with both competitions being knock-outs.

Richards Bay will host Rhinos on Saturday in a quarter-final Junior Murray Cup clash.

Kick-off is at 1.30pm and 3pm.

Bragging rights is not the only thing up for grabs on Saturday between the local clubs.

The other teams competing in the Junior Murray Cup competition are Vryheid, Newcastle Highlanders, Hillcrest, Sentraal, Westville and Ballito Dolphins.

As statistics go and based on this season’s performances, whoever wins in the Bay on Saturday should win the overall Junior Murray Cup competition.
