The Suzuki Griquas have received a very welcome boost ahead of their important Currie Cup fifth-round clash against the Sharks in Kimberley on Friday.

The fiery hooker, Tiaan Lange, is fit and ready to face the confident young Durban side after recovering from a back niggle that ruled him out shortly before last week’s match against the Lions.

Griquas coach Pieter Bergh told OFM Sport that, with the hooking department stretched by injuries, Lange’s return has come as a major relief.

Michelle le Roux skrywer, aktrise en mede-regisseur kuier by OFM om te gesels oor haar nuwe stilistiese komiese kortprent, Twee persent. In 'n wêreld vol ouwêldse sjarme en 'n tikkie absurditeit vertel die film die verhaal van Charlotte, wat kapsie maak teen haar eie hart toe sy verlief raak op die melkman Ernest as lactose intolorent. Die film debuteer by vanjaar se kykNET Silwerskermfees, en Michelle deel hoe hierdie eenvoudige gedagte ontwikkel het in 'n volwaardige kortprent, hoe sy en Heinrich Laubscher die projek saam geregisseer het, en wat kykers kan verwag uit die verbeelde wêreld van Suville.
