Hi all I covered a game Thurs night. The winners went on to the semi Final of "The Grand Final". The team in Claret & Gold destroyed the team in White 76-16 with a brilliant display of skill & brawn!. C&C as alway encouraged. Kind regards Graham.

    Nice series. I really like #3 and #6. I always thought hockey players were the toughest athletes until I went to my first rugby game!

    Hi John,
    Thank you very much for the kind words thumb.gif alas the season is all but over & though the World Cup is beginning here next month I will only get to cover a few games due to Pro league Soccer taking over most of my time, who's images, I will only be able to show via a link to my agency :(. Kind regards Graham.
    Graham.

    Ooh, excellent as usual. I like how the fox in #2 seems to be looking at the ball escaping from the players. ha. and the human debris in the background of 3, plus the guy flying through the air...
    I tried taking some american high school rugby last weekend, It is not so easy to get shots like these I must say... Good job!

    Had to come back for another fix. As always, great shots. Especially 3 & 4.
