The Rockets tactician has insisted that they are heading in the right direction despite a statistically modest opening to their Premier Soccer League campaign. The Mpumalanga-based side have managed just one victory in their first five outings, but their head coach remains adamant that the squad is evolving effectively under his guidance.

Experienced tactician Luc Eymael has offered a glowing assessment of the PSL as the South African top flight celebrates its 30th anniversary. The Belgian coach believes the division is now operating at a level that rivals major European leagues in almost every department.

Papi Zothwane has moved quickly to dismiss growing speculation regarding the future of star man Bright Ndlovu. The versatile 26-year-old was a surprise omission from the matchday squad during the club's recent league outing.

Babina Noko and the Rockets became the third fixture of the weekend to end in a draw, following the Chilli Boys and the Stallions, who were also forced to settle for a point each after neither side could find the net, while Gallants shared the spoils with Rise and Shine. Meanwhile, Usuthu leapfrogged Kaizer Chiefs into third place as their Zimbabwean striker found the back of the net yet again.
