TOUCH WOOD

Western Province eat with wooden spoon after they fall in Groot Gat

- BY FRANCOIS DE WET

WESTERN Province are now looking like firm wooden-spoon favourites in this year's Currie Cup Premier Division after a 47-17 pak to Griquas in Kimberley on Friday.

The loss sees the Kaapse span fall from second last to heel laaste on the Currie Cup log with zero points — not even a bonus point.

WP and the Sharks are the only two teams that are still winless after three rounds of the competition.

In three games, coach Labeeb Levy's WP span have now conceded 135 points while scoring 59.
