Resolution Impala Saracens have named their match day 23 to take on Mean Machine RFC this Saturday – 11th November 2017.
Edgar Obino, Daniel Ndome & Stephen Ayora start in the front row. Ayora usually plays at lock but head coach – Frank Ndong’ is confident in his decision to play him at tighthead. Davis Makori gets to partner with Rainer Omondi at lock. Joel Omer, Tyson Okoth & Duncan Ekasi form the backrow. Omer will start at blindside, Okoth at openside flank & Ekasi at 8th man.
Resolution Impala Saracens will not enjoy the services of an insightful Samson Onsomu & tactical Nato Simiyu at scrum-half & fly-half respectively but are set to reap the benefits of investing in an academy structure when Xavier Kipng’etich steps out to start at 9. A surprise awaits the fans with the introduction of the smooth-passing &clever Italian fly-half – Renalto Borzone. Timothy Makiya who graduated today from Multimedia University with a Bachelors in Film Production and animation degree starts at the left wing. Quinto Ongo plays on the right. Robin Kiplang’at plays at full-back. Joash Ngesa & a new introduction – Ishmael Mokaya play at inside & outside centre respectively.
The Reserves bench features a new addition to Impala – hooker – Mugambi Kithamba who played in Strathmore’s Kenya Cup Final appearance in 2013. Kenya Simbas prop – James Kubasu has also been named to start from the bench. Harritone Munai, Mark Kwemoi, Billy Omondi & Ian Mabwa can always be released to increase match tempo. Paul Oimbo who is arguably the most experienced of all in the match day 23 also starts from the bench.
