Namibia’s rugby team got their 2012 campaign off to a losing start as they lost 34-24 to South African Universities at the National Rugby Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The match served as preparation for Namibia’s opening 2015 World Cup qualifiers in Madagascar next weekend and on this performance they still have a lot of work to do.
The Namibian team, which showed several newcomers, played in fits and starts, with their team work and overall supportive play lacking while defensive lapses gave the visitors several tries on a plate.
