Post your rugby photos

No? I find it's a great, quick way to get warm. Or less cold. Hot tea especially.

My throat doesn't appreciate it

For me the facial expressions tell the story.

The expressions certainly add to the photos.

A cup of hot tea is also very nice to warm cold hands.

Rugby season came out of hibernation last week, so here are a few from last weekend:

Good stuff again, Jan. The players in shorts make me shiver though. Seems too cold for that.

It was cold for sure that day, I was wearing multiple layers of clothing to keep warm.

A few more from last week, while I have to cull through this weekend's harvest :

This one stands out in the series for me because of how two ladies seem to be sharing a head. It's pretty cool.

Two great sets again, Jan.

Two ladies sharing a head... Must admit I had not noticed it myself, even though I was looking at this one for a post on insta. Or maybe just because... As I was looking how the crop would turn out with respect to the girl on the ground.

And as a side joke with respect to "sharing a head", there is this saying in rugby: "If the ball is struggling and moving, you grabbed a head instead..." ;-)

LOL That's a good one!

Visited a local club nearby this weekend. Despite hard light not being ideal, a bit of sun during a match was nice for a change. Here are some photos of one of the best players of the team (she made it to the Dutch national team):

Great series again, Jan. So much drama on that field. Or so it seems.

The whole series is great, Jan. But I really love this one. The way the player is running, hand on the other player's face whilst looking at her. What a great shot.

Keeping the enemy at bay whilst levitating. Great shot!

A few more of the recent ladies' game:

I see really bruised legs! Blood. Rough game?

 

[Chuck]

Yes, look at the #8, her thigh. That looks like a wound to me.

Bruises are definitely part of the game , and sometimes there is some blood too, usually a nose or an eyebrow.
