RUGBY Cranes coaching director David Dobela is impressed by his team's positive mentality ahead of this Saturday's fixture against Madagascar in Kampala.

Dobela merged out of a weekend residential training camp in Entebbe impressed by his players' focus on the 'must-win' 2011 World Cup pre-qualifier/ Confederation of Africa Rugby (CAR) cup tie.

"The team is bonding so well. The players are confident and determined to win the match. It's their dream to play in the world cup and they are determined to archive exactly that," Dobela said an interview.

The South African tactician said that his first choice No. 8 Adrian Bukenya (top), who had been nursing a rib injury, is fit for the match.

"Adrian is back and there are no new injuries, everything is going on well," Dobela stated.

The team will this evening have a feel of Kampala club pitch where the match will take place.

African champions Uganda will get a slot in 2011 New Zealand World cup if they retain the tile.

But they must top their group and advance to the next stage where four teams will compete for not only a world cup slot but also the Africa title.
