Melrose Cup quarter final,Kenya 26 -7 Fiji: The Kenyans are dancing their way to the semi finals,second half tries from Biko Adema,Captain Humphrey Kayange and Collins Injera has given them a historic victory. Coach Benjamin Ayimba predicted six months ago that Kenya would win this Sevens World Cup,the Kenyan contingent are partying and deservedly so. all the teams in the semis have never won the world cup,all usual suspects have been knocked out. Wales,Samoa,Agentina and Kenya are thru to the main cup semis. p.s it was sweet revenge for a team beaten 70 something nil in the commonwealth games some years ago by Fiji. the likes of Felix Ochieng would be happy for this well deserved win.

Fiji are the defending champs. Let's pray we manage A likely impossibility is always preferable to an unconvincing posibility. African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

The Rugby World Cup Sevens-bound Kenya will on Saturday morning be presented with the national flag by President Kibaki at State House gardens. The world beating Kenya team,who have already claimed the scalps of South Africa and New Zealand this season,will be looking to fly the flag high in Dubai from March 5 to 7 when the tournament is held. Twenty-four teams pooled in four groups are taking part in this quadrennial sevens rugby show-piece event. Kenya are in a Group “E”,together with 1993 champions England,Tunisia and Hong Kong. The six pool winners and best two runners-up will progress to the Cup quarter-finals. Kenya players got a juicy inducement to progress to the Cup knockout stage when mobile phone service provider Safaricom announced hefty rewards yesterday. Each member of the squad will receive Sh0.5 million should they get to the final of the Cup competition and Sh250,000 reward per player for reaching the semis.

England was knocked out by samoa!!! in my mind the biggest team we need to beat are the PUMAs then the Samoans. the welsh may show some brilliance but the samoans are unpredictable All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

The argentines are lethal they came from 12-0 down to win the match 12-14 ! A real surprise. I believe samoa wouldn't be a hard nut to crack in the finals although they gave england a run for their cash. A likely impossibility is always preferable to an unconvincing posibility.

A pity but the Simbas got routed by the more agile Pumas... We should change the Kenyan name to Chuis! Anyway,a great run for our mboys!

Argentina are tough,their game involves being physical and abbrasive at the the breakdown area,coincidentally this happens to be our weakest phase of play. So if we defeat Argentina,we will be in with a shout. I guess if you can't win with facts,you can always pen bile-laced,xenophobic rants to distract everyone.

The finalists,Wales and Argentina came for the same pool. Sadly Zimbabwe was in the same pool,so they really had no chance. They played extremely well and if they had been in another pool there is every chance they could also have got to the semis. But they are in the Bowl Final against Ireland. Kudos to Zim too!!!
