Week Seven of the 2015 WPRFU Club Rugby season saw just four fixtures in the Super League A take place, with UCT out-gunning Villagers at Brookside by 65-0.
This was a very one-sided affair and the students can now take a well-earned rest ending on similar log points with Maties (31) at the top of the table. SK Walmers lost to a rampant Hamiltons at the Green Point Track by 19-41, with Hammies also retaining their unbeaten record in 2015 so far.
Sir Lowrians fought gallantly in their battle with Cell C Community Cup champions Durb-Bell who ran out 19-13 winners in this evenly-matched game.
St Georges were unfortunate to lose their game at Gustrouw losing 24-25 in a very close contest with the hosts losing this contest with a last minute penalty to Villager that was converted to clinch the win.
In Super League B, the top of the table battle is becoming hotly-contested with three teams still unbeaten. With NNK taking a break this week, Kuilsriver and Union Milnerton scored bonus point victories over Young Peoples and Macassar, respectively. At Kuilsrivier, the home team demolished a brave Young Peoples by 48-36 in a game that resembled Seven-a-side rugby at times.

In the City League competition Hamediehs jumped to the top of the log with a well-deserved win over Progress 34-15 at City Park.
