“*SWNW SAFETY ALERT – AIRPORT / SOMERSET WEST TURN-OFF*
Dear SWNW members,
Please be extra vigilant when driving in the areas around Cape Town International Airport, including the Somerset West turn-off after the petrol station.
A recent armed incident in this area has been confirmed by law enforcement. Metro Police also engaged and neutralised a suspect in the same vicinity two days ago, after the individual allegedly pointed a firearm.
Safety reminders:
* Ideally do not travel alone
* Lock your doors immediately when entering your vehicle
* Keep windows closed, especially at intersections and slow-down points
* Stay alert and avoid stopping if you feel unsafe
Report any suspicious activity immediately
These incidents occurred in broad daylight, so heightened awareness is advised at all times.
Please share responsibly and stay safe.
Your SWNW Coordinators”

Beware the DA when it says it’s building homes.
Look at where they’re being built.
They pack us like sardines in matchboxes in DENSE areas while never building affordable housing in wealthy and spacious areas.
This is social engineering of the worst kind.
If the DA says ‘we build homes’ — show me where they build them. Location is justice.
We remain on the periphery and are consistently priced out of home ownership.
It’s the Group Areas Act 2.0 - we WILL break this!

@YerhuMmapimele @jaredwright17 Willie had 15 try assists last year.
He is now the all time leader in try assists with 65 miles ahead of his closest rival… thats what he brings. Thats his value.

A few wondering why Trevor Nyakane is not getting a look in with the Springboks right now...
For starters, he is 35.
Frans Malherbe (33) and Vincent Koch (34) are the clear first-choice tightheads right now with Thomas du Toit (30) hot on their heels. Then further down Neethling Fouche and Wilco Louw.
At loosehead, Ox Nche (29) and Gerhard Steenekamp (27) have been excellent and Jan-Hendrik Wessels (22) is clearly a player the Boks believe can do a job against weaker scrums and offers options at 1 and 3. Then there is Steven Kitshoff (32) who will probably make the next World Cup - injury permitting.
Right now, Nyakane is in the tough spot where he isn't second or third in the pecking order at loosehead or tighthead and there is enough depth and options to not need two players that can play both sides.
Plus, they would have got a clear indication of where he is fitness and form-wise when he was in the squad in July. Not easy to crack the current Boks squad and getting harder to stay in it (ask Johan Grobbelaar).
He is the type of player that if there is a crisis, they will quickly turn to but sadly his Test career is winding down to a close and the same could quite easily happen to Koch and Malherbe next year or later this year.
It's already a pretty big squad and an extra body costs SA Rugby more and can lead to guys standing around waiting to get involved.
None of this is a slight on Big Trev.
The man played 61 Tests, won 2 World Cups, a Rugby Championship and a Lions Series. Players will rip an arm off for a career like that.
