The Ruck

If I keep taking photos at rugby for long enough, I *may* just get to the point where I understand the off-side rule. If it had been me - I would have lent over and picked up the ball. But I've just had a 10 minute lecture on why that's not the ball game. This picture was taken at the SACS vs Bishops U15C game this morning. Greg played, but is not in the picture.
Great capture....very cool!

Good picture. Not much rugby goes on this side of the world. There are local clubs but not to the extent as in your area.

You're turning into an excellent sports photographer.

you will soon learn the rules of the game :)
you'll also learn not to get to close to the side when they do that line throw in (i understand the rules just not the proper names lol) cause you will get tackled (have you ever seen a medic need a medic :P )

this is a great action shot. love all those stripes and those intense expressions. My boys are both football (players) - Must admit I was a little relieved when they gave up rugby as it always looks so painful!
