Hellos!:D
I made it back here!
I made an escape from hell!
Today , reached school around 04:00:00 PM. I was late for the friendly rugby match. The first person I saw was Michael. Whenever I see him , the first question that he will asked was: 'Hi Richmond. How are you doing?'. However , he asked me a different question for today , unlike those normal saturdays. The question was: 'Hi Richmond. So how many tries are you going to score for the team , adding points to the scoreboard?'.
Guess , what was my reply to him?
This was what I replied: '0 TRIES'!
The reason behind it is simple. If you are not even going to send me , being the so called 'secret weapon' into the field , how in the world am I going to score tries for the team? Does it makes any sense to you? Yeah , I do hope that it makes sense right?!
I still remembered clearly that in his email , he states that if the need arises , only then will he send me into the field to play the game. Michael asked me to change into my rugby shorts and rugby boots. When I am done changing up , the rest of the members were hurrying me to grab a jersey and join them for warm-up exercise.
All of them wanted me to join them in the game and play along side by side together with them so badly! They were shouting to me: 'Hurry , hurry , hurry! Grab a jersey and come in join us!' They sounded as though the team can't survive without me!:P
Once we are done with the warm-up exercises , the match began to kick-off. I was sitting at the side along the line-up line , watching the match , following where the ball is flying around intensely and talking on the phone at the same time. On top of that , I was talking to the girls from Juring Junior College as well!(: We had a good start at the beginning with us scoring the first try.
I almost fell asleep during the match , it was so boring watching the match. It was until the second quarter ended , a 5 minutes break for both teams and to re-shuffle the team before the third quarter of the match kick-off. That was the time when the backwards players were asking Michael to get the 2 'monds' in to further strenghten the backwards pack. The 2 'monds' are DESMOND & RICHMOND!(: Michael decided to get both of us in to support the backwards. Desmond took up the centre position whereas I took up the right wing position. By right , I am supposed to take up the left wing position but because Clifford attacked too much using his right shoulder , hence , we swopped.
Before the third quarter started , Christopher was telling me right wing very slack one and won't get to score try at all and told me not to worry. He even said that the opponents won't get to score at all with the few backwards playing the game towards the left side. Not a few minutes later into the game play , JJC scored a try!): That was really stupid alright! The fullback is the last man and yet he let them score. What's more the fullback player was CHRISTOPHER!-.-
Since that was the case , I proved to him that the right wing is not there for the fun of it. Another few minutes later , I scored a try adding 5 points to the scoreboard with Leon passing out the ball to me and me running towards the tryline. This made Christopher speechless and the third quarter ended. I could have scored a second try but I got brought down by my opponent when I was almost reaching the tryline.
During the break , I substitute out with Glen taking over the right wing post. The last quarter was the most exciting play with us doing most of the attacking and damages to the opponents' team. I shall not elaborate much on the last quarter. The final whistle went off with the score of 29 : 24. St Andrew's Alumni Team won!(:
This game really rocks because it was my first time playing together with solely only the over-35s saints ruggers and I was the youngest in the team!(: Haha! It was really fun and enjoyable. Although , I escaped from hell , I didn't managed to escape from any form of injuries.
I HAD A STRAINED LIGAMENT ON MY LEFT THUMB & MY PREVIOUS WOUND SPLIT OPENED!)':
The pictures are with Ricky and shall upload them once he upload the pictures onto facebook or circulate it to us through email.
Ok , shall end here.
Tada!(:
