After observing a break last week, the CMB Building and Investment Company Ltd sponsored
South West Rugby League will resume this weekend with three matches to be
decided at the main bowl of the National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos.
Royal Stallions of Ilorin will storm Lagos for their
first game of the 2016 league season in the Division 1 against Lagos RFC after
they walked over Eco II in Week 2 of the league.
In the Premier Division matches which start by 2pm at the
same venue, bottom placed Gosar RFC will hope to compound the misery of 2015
National league champion, Cowrie RFC who are still licking their wounds
following their loss to Racing RFC in Week 2.
In the last match of the day, second placed Police RFC
will face table topping Racing RFC by 4pm.
Speaking ahead of the all-important clash, which will
determine who occupies the top spot at the end of Week 3, captain of Racing,
David Oyekanmi told NRFF media that the team is psychologically prepared to
take the fight to Police and maintain their grip on the 2016 title.
“After we defeated Cowrie RFC in week 2, the confidence
in the camp is sky high. We have the belief that if we come with our A-game on
Saturday, we will definitely defeat Police.”
He assured that the team will not in any way underrate
their opponent having learnt from their win over Cowrie who he alleged
underrated them and were made to pay.
