Sunday

Well yesterday ended with another loss against Johnsonville.

We played a good match, just like last week. We lost it in the last 15 minutes. I think fitness and discipline let us down. We led for most of the match then they scored 2 tries in the last 15. Also in the last 10 minutes we had two sin bins, so we were down 2 players for the last 10 minutes: a prop and our scrumhalf.

I played the whole match. Messed up a couple times, like dropping an easy ball kicked to me and missed a tackle b/c I went for the ball instead of the man, but shit happens. On a good note, I did score my first try. Picked up a bad pass while on defense and ran it back about 50 meters. Sweet try. The backs did very well on the counter attack. It was cool to finally be a part of that, not seeing that side of the game from fullback yet. The side where they kick and you actually have time to do something with it. It was a fun match. I probably would have had two more tries if I would have recieved a couple passes better. On one, I passed and looped around the guy with a two on one. We had him beat, but a late pass had me knocking it on. But it's all good.

So we played well but it seems right now we're a 60 minute team in an 80 minute game.

After that I went to the club house. There was a small showing of guys last night. Not a big turn out. After that went to Murphy's for the rest of the night and pissed it up. Slept late today, and now it's almost time to make my way to work. So I betta git goin. Cheers
