@RugbyPatrons @WorldRugby @SVNSSeries This petition underscores why many in the @RugbyPatrons group have been at the vanguard of the game's development in Kenya. This @WorldRugby action was a REAL shocker!

@Itumbi_Denis Is this after taking out waste and luxurious expenditure?

@african_mtu @michaelkwambo 🙌

@dmango19 Now, this one is a different matter. This is now worsened by the amount of kicking in the game. Some of the kicking is sublime (and Dukisa was denied a 50-22) and, in general, we have kept improving. We must, however, find a way of keeping the ball and planning longer...

[Fred Ollows @fredollows1]

@dmango19 Overall, well argued. There's actually no issue on game time being spent in scrums and lineouts. Typically, the team(s) better in these setpieces tend to be the better rugby side(s). The two setpieces themselves don't even take long.

[Fred Ollows @fredollows1]

@michaelkwambo First, wah! I totally enjoyed that one... Rampaging scrums and stifling defence! Impressive tenacity. Where we must worry is lineout and, post kicking. Posts would have buried Zim kitambo. Field kicks improved in the last match, but some could have sent Jawiz to a coma 😎...

[Fred Ollows @fredollows1]

@ConstantCap @AuchSnr @Godwinkaruga 🙂Under high pressure, it's the basic skills that count most!

[Fred Ollows @fredollows1]

Good fight vs Namibia, in Namibia. Grudgingly accept that the Namibian winner was a great try :-) Encouraging start to the longer term campaign...

[#SupportTheSimbas @KenyaSimbas]

Namibia send the ball wide and land a last minute corner post try. Conversion slices the uprights.

FT scores:

Welwitschias 35 - Simbas 28

@Waweru_Mugo_ @poghie_esquire Impala will rise again 😊... @poghie_esquire is just being excitable yet he knows how the Impala Women dealt with his home Women team 😎

@aomenya @aomenya, that case is completely finished or finished completely #IWentToAlliance

@MwangoCapital Good effort with this! The purpose of the forms being uploaded is for wananchi to give a shot at tallying (not really to declare the president). It will then be great to compare with IEBC final. Part of public participation.

[Fred Ollows @fredollows1]

@johnallannamu @lamnyaga @johnallannamu, this verification aspect is the SINGLE most important point. Secondly, interested parties will ATTACK! if these two basic issues are fixed, you have a GO!

@Dan_Norton4 congratulations on massively successful career! You've set a remarkable standard... All the best with your future endeavours.

@PaulinaLanco @lospumas7arg @fijirugby Sorry @PaulinaLanco... I'm not quite the Twitter guy. I've just happened on this one... I couldn't have foreseen the Argy win but I'm a great supporter of their agile, clinical style! Santy has been a great coach for them. Now in his 9th season...

[Fred Ollows @fredollows1]

@ConstantCap I have just seen this not having been Twitter for that long... This is sad! What happened? May his soul rest in peace. @StrathSchool @VinceOgutu

[Constant Cap @ConstantCap]

I remember 'Albo' on Day 1 - Form 1, we met while purchasing exercise books at Uchumi. We later on played on the ⚽️ team together where he was goalkeeper. His death is a sad loss. Condolences to the family. May the Engineer Rest in Peace😢
