Semi-final battle heats up

With the Namibia Rugby Premier League well into the home straight, attention now shifts to the top-four battle for the semi-final places.

FNB Wanderers and FNB Grootfontein have been dominating the league so far, regularly exchanging the lead at the top of the log, while Montego United are right behind them in third place.

Last weekend, Wanderers regained the lead after a 33-31 home win against Grootfontein to go top on 45 points, but Grootfontein are a point behind on 44, while United are third on 42 points.

Barring any dramatic slumps, all three teams should comfortably reach the semi-finals at the end of the season, but the battle for the final semi-final spot is still wide open with FNB Kudus, FNB Unam, and possibly FNB Rehoboth all still in contention.
