Wanderers go top after bruising battle

FNB Wanderers regained the lead on the Namibia Rugby Premier League log, while defending champions FNB Kudus reignited their campaign with a commanding win on Saturday.

At the Wanderers field in Windhoek, the home side ousted FNB Grootfontein from the top spot with a hard-fought 33-31 victory.

In a bruising battle of fluctuating fortunes, the teams were tied 14-all at half-time, before Wanderers streaked into a commanding 28-17 lead.

Grootfontein, however, made a great comeback to go 31-28 ahead, but a last-minute try by Wanderers flyhalf Andre van der Berg secured their win.

The impressive Van der Berg added four conversions for a personal tally of 13 points, while he was a constant danger with his link-up play with forwards and backs.
