Kisumu RFC have revealed their squad that will face South Coast Pirates in a KRU Championship encounter scheduled for Kisumu Polytechnic on Saturday.

Head Coach Lawrence Buyachi will be up against his former employers South Coast Pirates and has retained the front row that played against Shamas Foundation last weekend.

Positional switches

Thomas Ogalo has moved to position five, Peter Maroko has switched from the back row to the second row, and Elvince Odhiambo has started in the back row. He will be joined by Paul Amenya and Charles Odhiambo, who will take over the eighthman role from Steve Orwa.

Walter Ambe has retained the scrum-half role with Carlos Magara starting at fly-half. Lenny Obiero has shifted to the midfield to play alongside Israel Makokha.

The back three has Alvin Karoli, Michael Lumumba and Washington Ochieng.  Kisumu RFC edged Pirates 28-25 last season and will be eyeing another win as Buyachi hopes to win against his former side.
