Kobs get one hand on the 7s title
On Saturday last week, Betway Kobs managed to put one hand on the 2019 Rugby Sevens Series. Kobs played their arch-rivals Stanbic Black Pirates in the highly contested final at Dam Waters in Jinja.
Pirates drew the first blood but Kobs out-muscled them by making three tries before halftime courtesy of Adrian Kasito, Robert Okeny and Pius Ogena. Pirates teased to make a comeback with an early try in the second half; however it was short-lived as Kasito outpaced Pirates’ Timothy Kisiga to seal the victory 28 – 19.
The victory left Kobs with bragging rights of lifting this year’s Roke 7s title as they now have 132 points, six points clear of second-placed Pirates. Kobs only need to finish in the quarter finals in that last circuit that they themselves are hosting at Legends Rugby Ground come August 24.
