Best XVI:
15 - Anthony Kinene, 14 - Dennis Etuket, 13 - Felix Lubega (very close this between the league's two-time top try-scorer and the reliably consistent Timothy Mudoola), 12 - Tonny Luggya, 11 - Allan Musoke, 10 - Joel Kimuli, 9 - Faisal Gamma, 8 - Roger Rukundo, 7 - Drake Muyodi (the comeback kiddo), 6 - Robert Seguya, 5 - Adrian Bukenya, 4 - Victor Wadia, 3 - Ken Mutabaruka (nice recovery after lacerating a bicep in the gym), 2 - Alexander Mubiru, 1 - Ronald Adigasi.

Best of the lot:
Bukenya (utl Kobs) and Kinene (G4S Pirates).

Flop of the year:
Daniel Mwiriri, anyone? The Kenyan import was supposed to be Pirates' bearer of good tidings but he didn't have any clout on proceedings at all. His try in the season-ending duel with Kobs was a classic case of someone grasping on straws.

Crybaby:
The right wing has lots of pace to burn and going by his return of 14 tries in this year's league, he is by no means a slouch. Yet when Kobs beat Pirates 21-14 last weekend to win the league with such comfort, Pirates' No. 14 Dennis Etuket broke down in tears. Quite a sight, it was.

Big girls don't cry:
Award goes to strapping 5ft 9in lady prop, Christine Kizito, who showed at the annual Kobs Rugby Easter Festival that women and men can indeed be dovetailed in rugby match-ups. Kizito used her bulky 96-kg frame to star for Wazee in the match against Vijana. The Vijana players who got a taste of Kizito's crunching tackles in the match couldn't help but crack their faces with grimaces.

Best supporting role:
Kobs' half-back Ambrose Kamanyire who stepped into the sizeable boots of the-then injured Edmond Tumusiime and directed traffic in the back-line as the record league champions beat Pirates in a crucial first-round fixture. Kamanyire was at it again in the reverse fixture, this time stepping in for Allan Masiko at No. 9.

Best comedy injury:
Masiko, who ‘forced’ himself out of last weekend's decisive match against Pirates when he injured his wrist during training. "These guys are so good," he said of his teammates. "No-one else could manage to injure me but them." Sadly, that injury rules the youngster out of the May 24's Elgon Cup first leg match-up with Kenya.

Worst decision:
Chris Mungoma deciding to ignore the fact that there were three forward passes in the run-up to Joel Kimuli's match-winning try (his first in the league) against MTN Heathens. The decision, which saw Pirates win the match 3-10, put paid Heathens' league title hopes.

Top quote:
Oxford-educated Bukenya talking of last weekend's 10th league title being "my best ever, because we had to not only fight on the pitch but also fight forces off the pitch." This was a thinly veiled pointer at the Pirategate scandal that allegedly had Pirates and Nile RFC involved in a match-fixing racket.
For the record, Bukenya was involved in the 1997 and 2007 championships that saw Kobs win rugby's juicy carrot unbeaten. The 1997 championship is seen by many as the Kobs' best ever win as they beat Hima Impis on the final day with the four tries that they needed to.

Me and my big mouth:
Pirates, for boldly stipulating that they would win the league with 64 points (from a possible 70). "There is nothing wrong with having an estimation," Pirates coach Herbert Wafula said after that estimation went up in smoke after the first round with dropped points against LG Rhinos (bonus point), Kobs and Heathens.

Showing your age:
David Mutaka who - after coming from a sabbatical - failed to find his feet out on the wing.

New kid on the block:
Inside centre Andrew Barasa. He at one point in time forced Luggya back on the drawing board by making Kobs' No. 12 position his own.

Best try:
Luggya's Jonah Lomu-esque try against a then embattled Nile when he knocked down player after player.

Bad boy:
Mathias Ochwo. He was sin-binned on numerous occasions, including the titian ties against Pirates and Kobs.
