 Again, it is the touch line here on Y244, at Y244 channel is where you can find us on social media and tell us everything that you need in the world of sports. We have been discussing major things in the world of sport and now we take our focus solely to the game of rugby considering that Kenya is in Canada to play the Vancouver seventh after also last week they played in the Los Angeles seventh for the first time. I'm Robert Osoro, as you should have got Fredo Penda here in the studio with me and joining me here on the centre is none other than Samuel Wanjuguna. Sam, how are you my friend? I'm fine. How are you doing? Great. Your highlight of the week in the world of sport was? I think the fact that some teams have shown a lot of improvement whereas others like Tottenham What's First need a long way to go. Have a long journey. Have a long journey, is it true? Where is it? You know, you said earlier that you're a Bannerini these guys are not even close to that. I think it's because they've had a few injuries but that's not an excuse actually. It shouldn't be an excuse. That's not an excuse. They have a proper team, they have proper players who can grind out and resolve. But then again, Team Cruel is really good. And that game again showed us how good he is. He saved penalties from Martial, he saved from Rashford and now he's saved from... He's known as a penalty stopper, come with me. He's good, he's good. He's a good goalkeeper actually. Again, people have been criticising Norwich City but again, their quality has shown. It's the team at the bottom of the table but they're playing football as if it's a team at the top. Top of the top. And that's amazing to watch. Well, that was his highlight of the week there. We have all deduced that it was Tottenham losing to Norwich in that effect of penalty shoot-off. But now it is all about the Rugby 7s, Kenya 7s are in number 11 as they head on to the Vancouver 7s starting tonight where they will be playing Spain, Ireland and the All Blacks. Tell me, if this is not the time that we can go direct to the main cup quarters. I mean, there's been a lot of hope and expectation with this team this season. Yes. But again, sometimes the results have not been what we expect. If you look at the Los Angeles series, there's a game we didn't even have one try. So there are a lot of questions around it but I think Ireland and Spain are winnable games. All Blacks, there is where questions are. Can we go toe-to-toe with them? They've been good. Even this season they're playing very well. South Africa did some demolition last weekend on us. So I think for me, Ireland and Spain are much that we should win and that gives us an opportunity to get in the main cup. The problem is, our results, as Mona Jiguna is saying, have been one thing and going against the likes of New Zealand, going against Ireland and Spain, I think the Spain, fine, the Spain and Ireland games are winnable but are we going to do it? The team really needs that motivation and the determination that you know what? We've not been good recently but we can still get results and that motivation should take them into the fixtures and maybe we can get some points. We lost to South Africa some more and the Los Angeles likes that we played but they really played well against Ireland, Wales and Scotland. Yeah, and that's why we're saying maybe if they go with the determination they need, the Ireland and Spain fixtures are winnable. But remember, we lost against some more. We lost against South Africa. These are big names in rugby. So I think for Ireland and Spain, we can win against those teams but the problem comes against New Zealand which will be our opening match. And I think that one, we need to put in more effort and maybe wait for our chances as you... I think the fact that if you look at the team right now is a bit more settled the fact that they have a sponsor now. There's no questions about funds and resources and everything else. So I think that should transpire into the pitch and we should be able to see results. And we haven't been able to replicate the Singapore series where we were able to win the title. So I think we can be able to do it but more of the introduction of the young guys that are coming in on the likes of the experience of the day and the like should be able to pass us through Ireland and Spain. And at least we should challenge New Zealand. It shouldn't be that humiliating result. Yeah, we should go ahead and win this. On the last time we went for Vancouver Sevens, we actually finished the last but this time around seems that the pool and the seating of the game seems to like to be on our side. Big names there, Ireland. But when we were going against the team like Spain and then Ireland, who actually we've met in the Los Angeles leg there, we have won against the Blues books once and that was in 2017, 2018 where we lost to Fiji in the final. What do we need to do to go head on against the whole Blacks? I think if you look at our game and how we play, ours is mainly about strength and pace, all right? And now if you go to New Zealand, for them they have tactics that work for them. They have big bodies, yes, but they also have pacey players and they can shift different formations and tactics in the game. We lack that and we have to admit that. And again, this season they have been introduction of new faces into the team and new blood and we hope that these new guys can be able to adapt into the league and be able to challenge. But even all that withstanding, I think for us we need to have a certain kind of way to penetrate New Zealand because New Zealand depend so much on their back line. Yes. If we can find a way of getting the balls in behind and using the pace we have, then we have a chance of beating them. And that's why I think what the team really needs to do is just to wait for their chance, dig deep, and try to maybe get good spaces and using the pace that we have, I think from the youngsters, we can give them a surprise. We're going to give them a surprise. Yeah, we can give them a surprise. This is the same of the experience of the likes of Amondale. Exactly, yeah. To be able to be seen here because it's about game management. We don't have to score 25 tries in the game. We can score 10 or 15 and win the game. Oh, 14 and win the game, yeah. Well, big one there for Kenya. They start actually in Pulsí where they'll be playing Spain, Ireland. Kenya's first match will be tomorrow morning at 12.53 a.m. And then the first match against the All Blacks will be today at seven minutes to 10. That's 9.53 Kenyan time. Kenya will be playing New Zealand. Then the second game against Ireland will be at 12.53 a.m. And then at 4 a.m. tomorrow morning, we play Spain. And that's how our Pulsí is. Some of the other Pulsí consists of Australia, the USA, Samoa, and Scotland. And we'll be seeing the US and Samoa try to match later. But it is a tough pool when you look at that pool actually. Australia, USA, and Samoa. It's very hard to predict who is going to lose, who is going to win. That's a group of them. Actually, if you look at those teams... Oh, my God. Some of Scotland that you can say. But still, they are Samoans. They are Samoans. Scotland, tough too. Yeah, these are, as you are saying, a group of dead. Because if you look at the way Australia is performing, the US, you know them, the Samoans, Scotland. I think this is where we are going to see some of... The Scotland we are seeing, whereby you score 10 and you win again. You win again. It's going to be very tough. The games where you feel the game is just being played from end to end. There's no really tries being scored, because the teams are rigid in behind, and they know how to control the game, and they understand the game. The same question we are asking about Kenya. If you see the best teams, they have some technical ability in them. It's not just having the good player. But this player knows when to use space, when to use strength, when they can conserve some energy in the game, and those are the things that win this. That one was in last week on the finals, because it was four in the morning. It was there with my boys watching the game. 19-5. 100% of Fiji is winning this one. There's no way Fiji is not going to win this final. Then all of a sudden, South Africa pulls one of the biggest surprises in the HSBC World Final series. Again, it's that technical ability. I will keep insisting. A team must know when to really be up front, when to conserve your energy. This is a game that has to be very tactical, and it is minute details. For instance, let me give the worst example of a game. If you look at Jage and Klopp and the performance of his team, go to Nuno Espirito and the performance of his team. You have to sit down to diet. That's something that we may see as very small. These teams have mastered the ways of finding a way to win even in the last minute. I feel like South Africa right now is a team to beat. As Kenyans being mentioned alongside South Africa and African continent, we should be feeling privileged. I think the Kenyan rugby standard is not bad at all. We know that sometimes we are in a deep state. We are ever talking about negative. Rugby is really good. Yes, I think rugby is really good. It's only the tactics. No one to use your pace, nowhere to use your energy and all that. And then maybe if we've beaten South Africa before. You see, they beat Fiji. The current Kenyan coach, Paul Finney, was the 2005 World Cup winner in Fiji. And now he's here and he's making team. We also got the Olympics coming up. He has got a very large pool of players that he has to select from. And all the way, this is how he's doing. This is the best he's doing. And that's how in Pool B, we have got the reigning Olympic champions Fiji playing against France, Canada and Wales. Wales actually occupied the relegation spot. Thank you for them that they might leave. That's the worst prayer they would be hoping to be in that group. Fiji and you have also Wales in there. You have France in there who are also very good. For me, I think Wales, I don't see them surviving this season, if the draws don't keep favouring them. But they really have to dig deep if they have to survive this HSBC season this year. I don't think they'll be able to get anything from this group. Because if you want to get something from Canada, Yeah, maybe from Canada. But if you look at Fiji and look at France, I don't think they have the capacity to go against them. Maybe they can get something. Canada is playing at home. That's the problem now. If Canada is playing at home, then Wales have reigned for a very, very big, tough leg in here. And they might be going down, as we are saying. Pool A has the defending team that is South Africa, England, Argentina and then Japan who are the invitational team into the tournament. So far we have got the All Blacks leading the series with four points so far, having won the captain and the Hamilton legs and they are followed closely by South Africa who won the Dubai and the Los Angeles legs so far. But before we finish off in everything that is going on, back here at home we have got the Enterprise Cup quarterfinals kicking off today. Cabral Sugar will start the defending of their titles that they won last time at the RFUA, again as Muamba at the ball ring, Kaka-Mega. And then Homeboys play home to Nondescript at Jamuri Park, Impala Saracens play home to Nakuru at the Impala Sports Club and then KCB finish off with Black Blood at the den in Rua Raka. Do you think Cabras will defend their title, Fred? I think this season they look stronger as compared to last season and I think for them playing in Kaka-Mega will give them a little bit more motivation and that injection, energy injection in the team and I think they should be able to carry the day against Muamba and maybe now after they have qualified from this then we can talk because we have KCB in there also. Yeah, that's what I was going to point out. The biggest threat is KCB. Exactly. And maybe Homeboys. Actually they went and beat Cabras last time out in their draft. KCB won actually at the ball ring. Exactly. Then Cabras won against KCB at the RFUA for the Enterprise Cup but KCB went to the main trophy that is the Kenya Cup. So those are the matches that were for you in rugby so far because of the Vancouver 7 and if you never got a chance to enjoy the Los Angeles leg because it was usually during the night enjoy all the trials that Kenya scored at the Los Angeles leg as they played against South Africa, some more Ireland, Wales and Scotland.
