The Springbokke is in a comfortable lead in the Rugby Championship after this past weekend’s victory over the All Blacks. SA remains undefeated after a win of 31 against New Zealand’s 27. It was a tough game with the Springbokke mainly playing catch-up rugby for most of the game. The last 15 minutes of the game was a nail biting affair with the Bokke overhauling a ten point deficit to win the game. Johan Orton/Caxton Local Media caught some of the action with his camera on and off the field. The second NZ game will be played in Cape Town on Saturday September 7.

Klerksdorp Midweek, Klerksdorp - Ricus Nel tree op 14 September in die Portugese Saal op en die gaste sal kan dans dat die biesies bewe. Ricus se talent en passie vir musiek het oor die afgelope paar jaar van hom ‘n huishoudelike naam in Suid-Afrikaanse musiek gemaak. Vingers wat ewe flink met ‘n pen as met ’n hele rits musikale instrumente kan toor en sy growwe country-rock stem het Ricus Nel in 22 jaar in die bedryf diep in Suid-Afrikaners se harte geklim. Met meer as 150 miljoen strome op alle digitale platvorms en volksbesit treffers soos Boerepompie, Ploeg Jy, Bokkies jag en natuurlik Hardekole wat op meer as 20 miljoen kyke staan op Youtube, die mees gekykste Afrikaanse musiekvideo van alle tye, staan Ricus vir geen uitdaging terug as dit kom by musiek nie.
