Tuks closer to claiming Lucas Strachan Shield

Posted on May 10, 2010



The fact that all tries were scored by outside backs is evident of the striking power Tuks have and the good use they are putting it to.

Johan Booysen (inside centre) and Gert Andries van der Merwe (tight head prop) were named Players of the Match.

Tuks’ tries were scored by John-Wessel Bell (2), Dirk Dippenaar and Justin van Staden. Van Staden added another eight points with a conversion and two penalties, whilst Gertjie Smith succeeded with a conversion.

John-Wessel, Tuks’ left wing, is now the top try scorer in the first round. He has five tries to his name.

• Al Tuks’ other teams in action, also won. These results are:

2nd league: Tuks Fezelas 39, Harlequins 6; 3rd league: Tuks Pumas 66, Harlequins 14; 4th league: Tuks Renegades 10, Police 3; o.21: Tuks Jongspan 117, Harlequins 0; o.19: Tuks A 28, Harlequins 12; Tuks B 14, Centurion 7.
