XFM Impis put up a spirited fight  to get not only their first Nile Special Premier Rugby League win of the season but also a won with a bonus point on Saturday afternoon at  Makerere.

XFM Impis defeated Entebbe based Sadolin Mongers 24-22 in a tight and physical game played at the grave yard ground Makerere.

"We have started to stablise. Last weekend it was just  bad lack but I can assure you that are going to upset more teams," Impis chairman and assistant coach Louis Lwanga stated.

Daniel Ortega was voted man of the match after he scored 2 tries before Adnan Mutebi, and Emmanuel Echudu added one each to silence Mongers.

Mongers scored through 2011 MVP Andrew Olwenyi and Adrian Waswa who got a try each and a penalty try.

At Kyadondo Rugby Club, it was a walk in the park for Heathens as they whipped visiting Buffaloes 57 -10 to stay on top of the table.

While at Legends Kampala Rugby Club, a try by James Kimono was enough to hand D’Mark Kobs a 5-3 win over G4S Pirates and win Kimono the man of the match plaque.

The highly anticipated clash watched by thousands of fans and by far the biggest crowd this season lived to its billing and the tight contest saw both sides go in at half time without scoring. 

In the second  half  both  teams regrouped and mounted  pressure  to  each other with Kobs getting the game-winning try through Kimono  but Pirates quickly replied through  Anthony Kinene  with a penalty but Kobs hang on for the victory.

The heated affair saw referee Collins Mulindwa send Rugby cranes and Kobs’ center Timothy Mudoola to the sin-bin and later Pirates lock Timothy Ddumba.

“We just failed to play the ball to their half and that is how we lost it all but its not yet over and we have not given up.” Pirates team captain Davis Kiwalabye stated.
