29 August 1965 Ref's Double Trouble Day Bully Springbok
29 August 1965 Ref's Double Trouble Day Bully Springbok and FBS lock, Melody Madikane, breaks with the ball after a scrum against St. Cyprians. It was double day for the referee of the needle match between FABS and St Cyprians here at the weekend. Both sides lodged protests about his decisions after the match. When M. Mjuza went over to score for St Cyprians, he fouled the touchline but neither the referee nor the touch judge spotted this, so the referee awarded the try. The FABS captain protested to the referee, but later withdrew the complaint. In the closing minutes of the match, FABS forced a lineout near St Cyprians gole-line. H. Madikane took the ball cleanly but was prevented from scoring. W. Maku however, snatched the ball from an apparently offside position and scored.
