Reho Falcons have moved to the top of the MTC Rugby Premier League after thrashing Jaguars 62-8 on Saturday.
Reho Falcon ran in nine tries to collect a bonus point and now top the log with 51 points from 12 matches.

Reho Falcons replaced Wanderers at the top of the log after Wanderers refused to play Western Suburbs at Suburbs Park last Saturday. Wanderers’ chairman Pieter Fick said that an incident between Wanderers’ captain JM Meyer and Suburbs’ former coach Johan Diergaardt still rankled and that their players feared for their safety at Suburbs Park.
