We meet again

On Saturday I played a game against Tevita’s team again at Aorere park and this time they had a new girl player. When my team got to the park we waited for the rest of the team to arrive so that we could do our training. We waited until they arrived and by the time they got to the park it was 11 O’clock. We started doing our warm ups straight-away and when we were halfway through our stretches we saw Tevita’s team walking past.

When we saw them we thought we were going to beat them because we recognised their rugby plays from the last game. We thought that we could use it to our advantage but when we saw their coach walking past it was a different coach from the last game, which meant that they could have different game plans.

Soon after we finished our stretches and ball skills, we walked onto the field with Tevita’s team and played rock, paper, scissors to decide who gets to kick the ball. They won and they chose to receive the ball. When my team was walking back to the kicking mark we were angry because we lost the rock, paper, scissors.

After we kicked we chased after the ball, but when one of Tevita’s players caught the ball he ran straight through my whole team and dived for the first try of the game. When they jogged back one of them put the ball on a kicking T and they kicked for the conversion and got it over. When we ran up to kick they kept on scoring until half time, my team was so tired because the first half took fifty minutes.

When we walked off to have a rest my team was so hungry they finished all the water and all of the oranges. When my team finished eating and drinking we sat down to listen to the coach and he said to change our plans because the oppositions were observing our plays, so our coach changed our game plan to lava lava.

After the long talk we ran back on the field and this time my team was happy, because we were receiving the ball. When the opposition kicked the ball, one of my rugby team caught the ball and before he could run he got speared in the chest. We had to pause the game because he was badly injured, we carried him off the field and to the sideline. The game had to continue on with 14 players against 15 players from the opposition. When we carried on they got the ball and kept on scoring until the last minute. We scored one try and my team was very happy because we got a try. That was the end of the game and then we shaked our hands with the opposition. After that, Tevita and I went to buy some lunch at the takeaway nearby.
