Winning a series round takes experience. One needs to have been there to gain the experience. I don't look at our performance with disappointment, but with the knowledge that our mboys gained the necessary experience to draw upon next time. We have set the base, and please note that there are new names and faces on the side, a vital ingredient for the next times.

It will come, I think towards the end of this season. Well done guys.

I disagree... they went into the game well prepared. Those 2 yellow cards cost us.

The boys came up for air after beating NZ, it is extremely difficult to summon enough energy and will power to again play a top side and win after such a high.

The beauty is that we are now ranked higher and will get weaker opponents that we can chapa easily without exerting too much menatal strain. A maiden victory is somewhere around the corner.

Good stuff.

Before, you get lucky with a chic for the first time, you get a little naughty, and she's like "this is too soon!" Do you give up? No! You keep on trying!

Those yellow cards are a result of mental strain my friend. Especially the second one was pure desperation.

The timing on the screen and the Referee's were different was waiting for the game to end with Kenya leading only for more seconds to be added.Painfull lose

Regardless of what the clock says........a Rugby game can only end when the ball is out of play.

we sucked at the death. A combination of reasons for this. Could be burn outs/ fatigue build up or lack of a big game mentality.Experience would have come in handy. All the same we did excelent and can build on that. 2nd postion overrall is pretty good.

Kenya is getting there. The fact that they are second in the standings means they are amongst the most consistent performers. I see Kenya starting to win some tournaments in the future.
