School Rugby 1977!

[Michael Alexander]

Here's a scan just in of the School rugby at OPS in 1977, why is this such an interesting Scan, well, because it is a perfect example of how a small town boy can make it to the big time and play in a winning rugby world cup side...

[Florrie van Zyl (Muir)]

If I remember correctly, Kobus Wiese had an older brother who was in my Std but in the Afrikaans class. Can't remember what his name is but he was tall, skinny and had a much darker complexion and hair than his brother.

[Dalene Steenkamp (Coetzee)]

Kobus's brother was Bennard and his sisters name was Alana.

[Yvette Kroukamp (Biccard)]

Bernard, Kobus, Alana and Cornel, if I remember correctly.

I remember Dirk Swanapoels face very well.
