I suppose you being sarcastic?
There is nothing about Omwela's first term that would make you think he will turn things around. When this chap was KRFU chair before, Kenya sevens used to lose to Uganda.
Sadly in Kenya, people vie for this positions for the wrong reasons.

So here we are again - promise to flatter, we have been "here" at the cusp of greatness for years now and truth be told with Mike Friday things would have been drastically different.

Its time to get rid of Injera's, Khayange's, Adema - this guys are waaay past their sell by dates.

Our coach is of course not tactically astute and 7's as we all know is a tactical sport - heck i saw Injera race down the line holding the ball with both hands maayne, no wonder years ago when he was a "real emerging talent" he went for trails in SA and there was literary no report because the dude was so so bad they actually had nothing to say, put him on a plane and sent him back.

So we are not "competing 'with Brazil wow..

That's the first and basic lesson in rugby, you are supposed to run with the ball held in both hands, and "not tucked under one armLaughing out loudly Laughing out loudly (which I suspect you want to say is the right way)" that way, you keep defenders guessing as to whether you are going to pass the ball or keep running.

Its not just Injera. Virtually every rugby player that Kenya has produced in the last 25 years would flop rugby trials in South Africa, NZ or Europe. The reason is that the technical skills of Kenya players are horrible. Kenyans have raw talent but it is not refined.

Back in the 1970s and early 1980s, the calibre of rugby player produced in Kenya was higher. In those days, rugby at Changez, Patch and Saints was still run by Odieroz and these chaps took the task of grooming players seriously from Colts to Intermediate and seniors. Nowadays most Kenya schools dont even have qualified coaches. Some dont even have a coach. Injera learned rugby at Chavakali high. You think he got good instruction there?

True that. Possibly the same reason we don't do well in sprints. Raw talent but technical drilling is missing.

Actually that's more of sports science. I don't expect long distance runners to win sprints. However I believe they are many talented sprinters in Kenya with well defined fast twitch muscles but they are poorly trained.

@ Mc - Injera has amassed that number of points through passage of time.

Here is a start for you - Among the "active" players Injera started playing in 2006 (9years ago) and the current leader with 202, Dan Norton second on the list with 179 started playing in the team in 2011 - your guess is ass good as mine where this discussion is going. So your start is neither here no there.

@Obi - Well things have evolved, while racing down, always hold the ball on the opposite side from angle of attack so it can be either left or right, holding the ball with both hands hampers your ability to attain top speed and of course inability to defend yourself - read hands etc. However fiji have debunked this theory and have the ability to hit the ball from your hands with their athletisicm whichever side it is.

@Ric Dees, achana na selective analysis, how many games did Ben Gollings play for England compared to Inera?

1. Santiago Gomez Cora 61 apperances 230 tries
2. Ben Gollings 70 appearances 220 tries
3. Collins Injera less than 55 appearances 203 tries

It means he is raking in more tries per appearance as compared to the two guys ahead of him. Infact Horrace Otieno and Kayange (55) have made more appearances than injera, give credit where it is due!!!!
