Free State, SWD in Craven Week 'Final'

Free State and Craven Week will have the honour of playing in the coveted main match at the 45th Craven Week in Pretoria on Saturday. The match will be televised and broadcast live.

They have certainly been outstanding beams though the way the Lions played against Eastern Province on Thursday was the top team performance of the week.

The team most cutely disappointed is probably the Blue Bulls, the hosts of the week who have lost both their matches and have been allotted the breakfast match on the final day.

Four of the 20 teams have ended the week unbeaten – Free State, who played the final match in 2007, South Western Districts, Valke and Boland.

Matches on the final day are either at Affies, who have provided the venues for the week, or across the road at Pretoria Boys High.
