KERF Match Report: Glenwood vs Framesby
GLENWOOD 31 – HOERSKOOL FRAMESBY 0
Unlike the first four matches, the game between local side Glenwood and Framesby from Port Elizabeth saw a clean sheet at the end of the first half. Mistakes by both teams and good defence prevented either side from putting points on the board.
In the second half it was Glenwood, who in all likelihood had received a tongue-lashing from their coach Rudi Dames, that started to dominate at the phases.
Their first try came after five minutes when eighth man Marco Palvie sniped over for a try, which was well converted by fly-half Jerome Bossr, for a 7-0 lead.
The ascendancy of the Glenwood pack saw them having territorial advantage and the second try was again scored by Palvie after continuous pressure on the Framesby try-line. A more difficult conversion saw Bossr split the uprights for a 14-0 lead.
An assistant referee call saw the first yellow card of the festival against a Glenwood player in one of the rucks that led to their try. Despite this they continued to apply pressure on Framesby and came close to scoring.
A ruck on the half-way line resulted in Palvie coming away with the ball and his 50m run resulted in a try under the crossbar, for his hat-trick of tries. The conversion was missed but the lead stretched to 19-0 with five minutes remaining.
A second yellow card, this time against a Framesby player, saw 14 players unable to stop a rumbling drive by the Glenwood forwards which resulted in flank Austin Brummer diving over. The difficult conversion this time was converted by Bossr.
A final try was scored in injury time by wing Ilunga Mukendi for a 31-0 win.
