By half time they were 29-5 down. What they did in the second half against one of the Western Cape's most feared packs will stay with everyone who watched it. Watch until the final whistle. Final Score: HTS Drostdy 43 – EG Jansen 24 📍 Affies, Pretoria | 📅 27 March 2026 🏉 About This Match Hoërskool Dr. EG Jansen — the Arende from Boksburg on Gauteng's East Rand, named after Ernest George Jansen, South Africa's first Afrikaans-speaking Governor-General — came to Pretoria with intent. Werner Breytenbach drew first blood from a quick fullback pass and EG Jansen looked ready to make a statement. HTS Drostdy had other ideas. The Donkeys from Worcester in the Western Cape — a school whose nickname dates back to 1919, when their first rugby team travelled to their opening fixture by wagon and donkey — are one of the Southern Cape's most physically imposing sides, and they showed exactly why. Werno Ramsauer pounced after a penalty ricocheted off the post. Anwill Jacobs then produced a piece of individual brilliance, handing off a defender to score in the corner before finding space again to complete his brace. Tristan Syster finished a sweeping move that started from Drostdy's own try line. A scrum penalty from Jano van Deventer on the stroke of half time stretched the lead to 29-5. It looked finished. EG Jansen disagreed. Breytenbach opened the second half with neat footwork, then produced something even better — dancing around multiple defenders from a standing start to complete his brace. The Arende were suddenly alive. EG Jansen's set piece eventually let them down under pressure, Drostdy counter-attacked, and Darren Makeza finished clinically. EG Jansen hit back through a rolling maul try from Aljay Olivier, but Makeza had the final word — collecting inside his own half and going the length in a magnificent individual finish to seal the win. "The Donkeys ran rampant, but EG Jansen gave them a proper contest and deserve enormous credit for the fight they showed across 80 minutes." — NextGenXV ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 – Kick-off 35:00 – Half Time (Drostdy 29 – EG Jansen 5) 35:07 – Second Half kick off 1:11:44 – Full Time 1:13:57 – Post Match Presentation 🔍 Match Details 🏆 Tournament: NMI Toyota Noord/Suid Rugby Tournament 2026 (12th Edition) 🏟️ Venue: Afrikaanse Hoër Seunskool (Affies), Pretoria 📅 Date: Friday, 27 March 2026 📊 Result: HTS Drostdy 43 – EG Jansen 24 HTS Drostdy Scorers: Tries: Anwill Jacobs (2), Darren Makeza (2), Werno Ramsauer, Tristan Syster Conversions: Jano van Deventer (5) Penalty: Jano van Deventer (1) EG Jansen Scorers: Tries: Werner Breytenbach (2), Jaco Engelbrecht, Aljay Olivier Conversions: Renaldo October (1), Juan van Aswegen (1) EG Jansen vs HTS Drostdy | Noord Suid 2026 | School Rugby South Africa Looking for the EG Jansen vs Drostdy 2026 highlights?
