Nkwazi Rugby Club's inconsistent form continued as they suffered a narrow 8-7 defeat to Diggers in the Copperbelt, failing to build on their early lead. Despite starting strong and leading 7-5 at halftime, Nkwazi couldn't capitalize on their momentum, allowing the Diggers to seize the win in the second half. The match sparked controversy among fans, with some alleging favoritism by the referee towards Diggers. A fan from the Planet Rugby group claimed that corruption was rampant in Zambian rugby, citing the referee's alleged bias as an example. However, others countered that Nkwazi had failed to score from numerous penalties and had reacted poorly to the referee's decisions. A referee responded to the criticism, urging fans to familiarize themselves with the laws of the game before making accusations. The loss leaves Nkwazi to be among the struggling teams at the bottom of the table with only one win since their promotion, while Diggers now lead the table ahead of Red Arrows and Mufurila.
