Even with several rain postponements and other inclement weather challenges the past weekend delivered another exciting round of WP Club Rugby action, with several key matchups across Super League A, B, and C, as well as the Southern and Paarl regional leagues. Despite some challenging weather conditions, clubs pressed on with determination, and the results have led to notable shifts in the log standings. In Super League A, Hamiltons produced a dominant home performance with a 57–0 victory over Tygerberg, scoring eight tries and securing a bonus point. This emphatic win keeps Hamiltons firmly in third place on the log, just behind Villager and Durb-Bell. Meanwhile, SK Walmers edged Brackenfell 19–10 in a tight contest, with both teams scoring multiple tries. This win helps SK Walmers climb to ninth on the table, overtaking Union Milnerton. Brackenfell, on the other hand, remains in twelfth and will need to bounce back quickly to avoid slipping further. With Durb-Bell and Villager leading the pack, the race for top four is heating up. Super League B saw a few close battles and one notable upset. CPUT claimed a valuable away win over Bellville, 22–12, with three tries to Bellville’s two.
This result lifts CPUT to 12th on the log, while Bellville stays in 13th, still struggling to find consistent form. Collegians narrowly defeated Hamediehs 8–7 in a defensive slugfest, with both sides scoring a try each. The win keeps Collegians in sixth place, holding onto a top-six spot by a narrow margin. Franschhoek continued their strong form with a 23–13 win over Macassar, scoring two tries and moving up to fifth on the log. Macassar drops slightly to eighth, now tied on points with Helderberg and Hamlets in a tight mid-table battle. In Super League C, Rangers pulled off a narrow 12–10 away win over Strand in a match that saw both teams cross the try line twice. This result helps Rangers move up to seventh on the log, just one point behind Scottsdene Central. Strand, despite the loss, remains in fifth but will need to regroup quickly to maintain their top-six position. The standings in this league remain very competitive, with just a few points separating the teams from fourth to ninth. The Southern League featured a high-scoring affair as Watsonia demolished Young Stars 93–12, scoring an astonishing 15 tries. This massive win keeps Watsonia unbeaten at the top of the log with 45 points and a commanding points difference. Young Stars, meanwhile, remain in seventh and will be looking to recover after this heavy defeat. Watsonia’s dominance continues to be the standout story in this division.
Across the leagues, teams are beginning to show signs of fatigue and resilience as the season enters its crucial phase. Hamiltons and Watsonia continue their winning streaks, while teams like Bellville and Paarl are still searching for form. The log tables are tightening, especially in Super League B and C, where just a few points separate multiple teams vying for top-six finishes. Coaches will be focusing on maintaining momentum and managing player fitness as the pressure mounts. With bonus points playing a key role, scoring four tries or more is becoming increasingly vital for teams chasing playoff spots.
