There will be no underestimating Brackenfell this weekend fromTygerberg's captain as his team knows that in a Classic Clash, everything will be thrown at them.
The message all week from Juan Esterhuizen to his team has been to play the upcoming match like they have the others and to not let the occasion get the better of them.
Esterhuizen knows there is a huge amount of responsibility on his shoulders – as always.
"It is a huge responsibility [to be named captain]," the large flank said ahead of their meeting with the 'Brakke'.
"You have to always set an example on and off the field.
"People should never have to doubt that I deserve the position."
Tygerberg hold the historical advantage over their opposition with Esterhuizen knowing only victories in his school's four previous Classic Clashes.
"We have been on the winning side of all four Classic Clashes and would obviously like to make it five from five this coming Saturday.
"We don't underestimate the Brakke and we are just going to play our normal game and give our best."
He may be a captain that enjoys the responsibility, but Esterhuizen also adds to the team by being a ball carrying threat.
"I am a very attacking player and like to carry the ball," he continued.
"I am known a captain who shoulders the responsibility, for my team mates and therefore I knows what it takes to keep each one positive on the field."
