  • Kenya bow out as USA face off with Romania in JWRT final

    Posted: April 29, 2009, 10:13 pm by KCBRFC
    A 67-0 whitewash of the Cayman Islands was not enough for the Kenyan Chipu after the USA scored a vital bonus point in their 29-25 win over Namibia on Wednesday afternoon that secured top spot in Pool A and an appearance in the IRB's Junior World Rugby Tournament in Nairobi.

    The Chipu will now play in the classification matches for third and fourth position on Sunday.   The match
    Ken Andola opened the scoring on 9 minutes with a drop goal before flanker Oscar Ouma touched on 14 minutes. Andola missed the conversion as Kenya led 8-0. Hooker Matthew Musalia stretched Chipu's lead on 19 minutes. Andola was sure with this conversion as the scores read 15-0 to thee home side.   The match turned into a physical affair with Kenya's eighth man Ken Isindu dominating, taking the ball to the Caribbean Islanders with his no holds barred straight running.    Patrice Agunda scored Kenya's third try of the match on 32 minutes after being put through by Andola who sliced open the Cayman Islands backline. Andola's conversion saw the Chipu lead 22-0.    Minutes later,Isindu the workhorse beat his defenders, again with his hard running but team captain Eric Kioko knocked on with the try line in sight.   Half time score Kenya 22 Cayman Islands 0   Kenya head coach Mitch Ocholla's half time pep talk must have fired impetus into their attack, they came into the second half guns blazing and scored on 47 minutes when Ouma touched down for his second try of the match.  Andola's conversion saw Kenya lead 29-0.    Dennis Karani piled on the misery when he scored on 54 minutes. Andola again converted as Kenya ran to a 36-0 lead.   Roving flanker Ouma completed his hat trick on 57 minutes as the Chipu continued to pound the Caymans into submission. Scores at this point, 41-0.   A Kenyan attack was countered by the Caymans defence who opted to raise the ball. Substitute Felix Ayange gathered the miskick, sidestepped his marker and raced to the tryline on 60 minutes. Kenya 46 Cayman Islands 0.   Isindu continued to torment his Cayman Islands defenders, hitting them at will and scored in the 66th minute through Jeremy Njoroge who had replaced Matt Musalia at hooker. Andola's conversion made it 53-0 to Kenya.   Isindu finally got just reward for his hard running and big hits when he touched down in characteristic fashion on 75 minutes. He powered his way past four Caymans defenders befored touching down under the posts. Andola took the scores to 60-0 for the Kenyan Chipu's.   Speaking after the match, Mitch Ocholla, Kenya's head coach, praised his charges, saying they had stuck to the intended game plan.   Last minute heartbreak   Kenya, with one foot in the final, were depending on the results of the second group game between Namibia and the USA .Everything seemed to going Chipu's way when the USA led Namibia 12-10 for large intervals of the match.    (Kenya needed the USA to beat Namibia without getting a bonus point as this would have ensured their participation in the JWRT final).   The match ended in a 29-25 win for the USA's Junior Eagles who topped the pool on 12 points, one more than Kenya's 11 points. The much fancied Namibia finished third in the pool. The dejection was plain to see on the faces of the over 700 fans who turned up at the RFUEA to cheer Chipu into an historic JWRT finals appearance.   The USA will play Romania who beat Chile  26-20 in an entertaining clash. Kenya plays Chile in the classification for 3rd and 4th position.

    Bob Johnson, the US Junior Eagles captain was impressed with the level of play exhibited at the JWRT and singled out Kenya and Namibia as worthy opponents.

    Romania's captain Eduard Marinca said that the game against Chile was tough, as they were similarly matched in terms of physique but praised his side's fighting spirit which enabled them seal victory at a time when Chile had closed the scores to 21-20 with minutes left on the clock.

  • Fwd: It's judgment day on JWRT match day three

    It's judgment day on match day three at the International Rugby
    Board's Junior World Rugby Trophy (JWRT) in Nairobi. The two teams
    that will qualify for Sunday's final will be known on this day when
    the preliminary pool fixtures come to an end.

    Hosts Kenya, lying third in Pool A behind Namibia and the USA, kick
    off the day's proceedings when they face the fourth placed Cayman
    Islands in the early kick off.

    Mitch Ocholla, the Kenya under 20 head coach is upbeat ahead of this
    clash. He heaped praise on his charges following their come from
    behind 33-32 win over the USA's Junior Eagles on Saturday. He was
    particularly impressed with Chipu's fighting spirit even as they
    trailed 14-32 with less than fourteen minutes left on the ticker.

    Shifting his attention to their do or die clash against the Cayman
    Islands on Wednesday, Ocholla intimated that he would deploy a mobile
    forward unit as he seeks to pile up the points against the Pool A
    battering rams and secure Kenya's qualification to the JWRT final. The
    injured trio of Kennedy Gacheru, Polycarp Odhiambo and Mike Wanjala
    are all doubts for this clash though Ocholla believes that the rest of
    the squad can competently and comfortably dispose of the Caymans and
    secure passage to the final.

    The other clash in this pool sees leaders Namibia coming up against
    second placed USA who are wounded after their dramatic collapse
    against Kenya in Saturday's action. The two sides are also eyeing the
    pool's single slot in the final. Both sides go into this clash knowing
    that nothing short of a win and this match promises to be a thriller.

    Pool B action sees South Korea play Papua New Guinea in what is
    ideally are formality match as both sides lost their opening two
    fixtures and are out of contention for the JWRT.

    The other fixture sees the ruthlessly efficient Romanians take on the
    workmanlike Chile in the battle for Pool B supremacy and a ticket to
    Sunday's JWRT final.

  • Rhinos win the Bamburi Rugby Super Series

    Posted: April 19, 2009, 1:37 pm by KCBRFC

    The Rhinos have reclaimed the Bamburi Rugby Super Series title with a 30-13 win over the Buffaloes at the RFUEA on Saturday.

    FIRST HALF

    Simon Wariuki scored a drop goal within the opening minutes as Buffaloes led 3-0. The Rhinos patiently inched back into the game, battling the Buffaloes in the forwards in what was an intensely fought first half.

     Tempers frayed on 35 minutes with a brawl breaking out between the two sides, causing a five minute delay.

    On resumption, Buffaloes Martin Opondo was sin binned, reducing the Nakuru based side to 14 men.

    Big George Mbaye of the Rhinos scored a try from the resultant penalty. Jude Thumbi missed the conversion as the Rhinos led for the first time, 8-3. Thumbi scored a penalty on 38 minutes while former Lions player John "Meso" Ahenda stole in on the blind side right on half time to give the Rhinos a 13-3 lead going into the half time break.

    SECOND HALF


    The Buffaloes started this half on a positive note, pressing the Rhinos and were rewarded with a Kevun Otieno try on 46 minutes. Wariuki's conversion cut the deficit to 13-10. Sensing a Buffaloes backlash, the Rhinos brought on IRB Sevens Circuit top try scorer Collins Injera to add impetus to their attack.

    This move eventually paid dividends with the Rhinos scoring a try through Patrick Onyango on 63 minutes. Thumbi was sure with the conversion as the score board read 20-10 to the Rhinos. Wariuki scored a second drop goal on 66 minutes, taking the score to 20-13.

    Hungry for the crown, the Rhinos scored two more unconverted tries. Mbaye completing his double on 70 minutes while captain Daniel Kiptoo scoring on 75 minutes as they ran out 30-13 winners, adding to previous BRSS titles in 2003 and 2007.

    Backrower David Mogere had a stand out performance for the Rhinos.

    Pascal Wetukha, the Buffaloes coach, blamed his side's defeat on over confidence, but he was quick to add that the Buffaloes, who are largely comprised of Enterprise Cup champions Nakuru RFC will be a force to reckon with during the regular club season.

    Earlier, Uganda's Rwenzori edged out Kenya's Nguvu Sharks 22-19 to claim third place.

  • Bamburi Rugby Super Series Match Day Five: The Grand Finale

    Posted: April 16, 2009, 11:50 pm by KCBRFC
    After five gruelling rounds, the battle for the Bamburi Rugby Super
    Series comes down to 80 minutes on Match Day 5.

    Former champions Rhinos face off against the Buffaloes at 1530hrs
    East African Time on Saturday afternoon at the RFUEA to fight for the
    2009 BRSS title.

    To borrow but one sporting cliché, the form guide goes out the window.

    Nothing else but what happens on Saturday afternoon matters. Not the
    star players, not the coaches, not the best tries,tackles, dummies and
    drop goals of the season, nor the best fans. Nothing but the final
    result. And ultimately, this is why we are rugby fans.

    In the words of a popular Australian rugby league commentator Phil
    Gould, "the regular season is a Mickey Mouse competition. The only
    thing that matters is winning trophies"

    May the best team win.

  • Bamburi Rugby Super Series: Semi Final Saturday

    Posted: April 12, 2009, 4:30 pm by KCBRFC
    It was semi final Saturday on match day 4 of the 2009 Bamburi Rugby
    Super Series where Buffaloes and Rhinos won their matches to ensure an
    all Kenyan final on Saturday 18th April 2009.

    Buffaloes v/s Sharks
    Venue: RFUEA Nairobi
    Attendance: +2000
    Weather: Clear

    Two late tries from Vincent Mose and John "Che" Ekong'o saw the
    Buffaloes deny the Nguvu Sharks a maiden appearance in the BRSS final.

    Flyhalf Simon Wariuki opened the Buffaloes account with a 5th minute
    drop goal, giving them an early 3-0 lead. They dominated the opening
    exchanges and were rewarded with a 15th minute try from Lawrence Mutai
    that extended the scores to 8-0.

    The Sharks were stung by this, coming back into the game. Maurice
    Mbai's 22nd minute trying reducing the deficit to 8-5. A massive Ian
    Chewini penalty from 35 meters out tied the scores at 8-8.

    The Sharks were back in the game, effectively dealing with Buffaloes
    attacks while putting their foot on the gas pedal. They however failed
    to turn their dominance into points and were punished by a second
    Wariuki drop goal heading into the interval.

    Half Time Scores
    Buffaloes 11 Sharks 8

    Mitch Ocholla's half time pep talk seemed to have inspired confidence
    in the Sharks who came out guns blazing and were rewarded with a
    second Chewini penalty that brought them level for the second time in
    the match. 11-11 at this point.

    Both sides prodded each others defences and it the Buffaloes fullback
    Vincent Mose who touched down after some great interplay with Davis
    Yanga. 16-11 to the Buffaloes.

    With only five points separating the two sides, the match was now
    poised for an exciting finish.There were near misses from both sides
    before the Buffaloes won a scrum down on the Sharks five yard. the
    indefatigable John "Che" Ekong'o touched down at the dearth.

    Final Score
    Buffaloes 21 Sharks 11


    The second semi final saw former champions Rhinos fight off a spirited
    challenge from Uganda's Rwenzori, emerging 30-20 winners in a duel
    that they led 17-5 at the interval.

    Earlier, the Cheetahs beat outgoing champions Lions 27-15 in the fifth
    place playoff tie.

    The Sharks will now battle with Rwenzori for the third place as
    Buffaloes and Sharks duel for the 2009 BRSS crown next weekend at the
    RFUEA.
