should be really interesting but i'm not really looking to take this game i was talking with coach bruce earlier and he said that that a win tonight puts them in a very good position for the playoffs which are coming up in a couple of weeks so we're really hoping to take this one who is going to kick off and who's going to receive the ball boys coming out with a lot of confidence tonight a lot of hard work over the last week and practice but there are no guarantees you have to come out with intensity and focus every single night and just looking at the moments and getting psyched up together as a team the games that i've watched this season have really been remarkable and it ha effort and really put together some good rugby one of the thing about having so many seniors playing together for so long is that that cohesion just sort of knowing each other and that intensity is really very clear on this side well we have civilian kicking off and don't want to receive the building just waiting for the riff to get a touch judge on the phone s know it was a strong run up the middle but knocks it on they will retain the position of the ball and which means that they will get to try the baylen at the lineout it's a very in getting a great lift in these lines really getting their jumpers up in the air and can be hard to disrupt that it was good timing quite agree that was very well thrown and time strong run by the number eight brendan mccarthy just trying to get the handling right chair nearly nerves of the game yeah i knocked on unfortunately by mao there but it's ok we'll see what we can do here to take th you know if your is a very and you get a a nice bit of momentum going down the field and then that happens it really takes the wind out of you that is really a killer blow for them and you know i will credit to belmont they've been very disciplined in their defense and  trick is to get to the ball and control alive for the very end and they bring it to the near side with defense being impenetrable by  points which is always a wise decision to do to keep the school board ticking over absolutely and trying at least get the first points on the board and take off a bit of pressure  if he misses it the ball is live and that will see what happens here trying to hurry up and get it up before they can get fully s veron have the ball and keep it close to the rock and with a strong run by the number seven ball back to their back line and keeps on running close to the rock again which resulted in the penalty and someone gets to scram because that's what they chose to do so i wouldn't be surprised to see the eight man sam pick this ball up and run on the short side here yeah if we can stopped just short of the line and maybe held up well rocked by belmont good saves the bull again strong run by a well kept up slightly can they get the ball back the need to get the ball back here and there it comes couple of phases here now this is the fifth or sixth phase that someone has kept it going which just shows how well they're actually protecting that goal and making sure that they keeping it alive and here again it's coming down the line we'll take that again gets so they actually have an option here they can either kick full poles or they could kick for touch or they could choose a scrum or they could take a quick tap so there are many many choices that they have to do when a full penalty is given and so that had a good chance is going to have in my back down there which i was wise your your adrenaline gets pumping and you don't realize sometimes that you're hurting maybe more than you think you are so that take a minute i think peter's where any any knock to the head needs to be need to be cautious and assistant like you know these rules and regulations that what every regie team has to go through to assess these kind of concussions and knocks to the head and all of us coaches go through extensive training to look one of the most wonderful things about playing rugby is you know that it's you do it for fun and you go on to play club rugby a high school rugby and club rugby and and you know it's something that can last for many many layers after high ok great in substitution is where they need to get their drive going and unfortunately guys down to ground but the ball comes back strong running soon right get right out of camp and one more of got the ball and  that lineout that works so well for them it's interesting that this is a second scrum they've chosen off the penalty now yeah yeah i think there must be some you know game plan there and what they're trying to do they've probably got a good ten and not allowed to touch a play even if the variant takes it quick they have to allow their player to run those full ten yards before touching  by the very end and as broad played down to just shy of the so fat dairy very good very close match tonight and a lot of fun to watch it's a very tight game we're now twenty twenty three twenty four minutes going in the game and it's still seven three  without jihad he didn't lie on the player and said looked like a good turn over but the rest so differently and i didn't i didn't pick up on that and yeah so anyway line out to the very end and let's see if they now they need to get the ball  was hard to see from  belmont to throw the ball and now peter this is where i'd like to see the mall get into motion yes and release just get that big boys going there charge in a short line out it's a that was a great piece of player to feel smart play and i'm not quite sure who did the chip through but it could have been llorente out with russell that was very nice and you know running up strong i think it was nathaniel but  so many of these bama players as i was saying develop their skills offseason and the kicking game and some of the real skill areas you can just see them return from a summer camp or  getting some extra help outside of the season and really elevated yeah you can see if we see that so we have nathaniel taking the kick field goals from where the penalty was given which is just  putting a lot of pressure on the very end and deserve does points that pete i agree with you the skill level i was watching you know even last week via talking about the intelligent play by belmont and again that was really intelligent putting the ball hands in their act got to keep those hands out there maybe it falling on the wrong side i wasn't sure but yeah belmont receives gets a penalty for a very an infringement on the entertaining first half i see it's quite a bit a nice play here some beautiful line outs on both sides great strong running so welcome to the second half we've got good crowd building here in belmont with a lot of alumni who come out to watch the game and support the players which is really great to see such a great organization that bruce has built  joe and a penalty the belmont ref playing the advantage i didn't see the original penalty no i did not either peter and just commenting on joe's service he's got a very and accurate parts which always always helps the back line to get the ball down the back line quicker really is an amazing amazing first pass out from the set play and the ruck nice kick throw into a lineout just inside the the very end off of the failed fourth line outs very sharp in the first half i don't think it either team stole the other's line  off first half which is sort of unusual so we'll see if that trend continues here taking play to the halfway line and coming back to looks like a penalty snatching the ball up and darting down and making a try great piece of individual play there by george can reading the opportunities in belmont making the most of them and then attacking quickly and with forces just so important in the game yeah i agree with you that they do read the  donna you mentioned the alumni coming back and it really it's amazing how much of a family this team feels like it is and that returning players are such a boost to the to the guys who are who are out on the field playing really really fun to see yeah i mean just you can see by the belmont teen peter it's you know they they all they just play so well together they seem to know each other very well and you know  you if a player is going for the ball in the air you can't make contact with them you've got to get away to that brings it down and the refs going to call the captains in here and have a little chat try to cool tempers off and give everybody a blow here for a second yet it's deemed a dangerous play if if the player is tackled in the air and in most instances if putting pressure now back on film ont he takes play to the twenty two of belmont again retaining position of the ball and feeding it to the back line this time someone defending very well and i think they could have not to have intended over the riff as deemed belmont to be offsides a nd have awarded the varian a penalty on the twenty two just left of the p you're going to run the ball here see where they spin it and for sneaky they've taken a test run and done a set move from the penalty back to to number ten will has been running well for the very and looks like they still have position and pounding the sides and have been awarded with another penalty dominant gets a little breathing room over to belmont bit of extracurriculars there yeah but of tampa going on having a little chippy on the field yeah and their penalty did you know if you know what it was that a high tech so i want gets a penalty and looks like they'll be kicking for touch right here in front of us nice kick safe belmont as with a dead pressure for the last five odd minutes very well and they've done that so well all season long you know eat your heart in your throat for ten minutes as they withstand the pressure down at their the the style of play that that has evolved where the forwards can get into the line and handle the bar and be part of of running and the kicking game it's just so exciting it's amazing and that and i have to say i always experience some jealousy oh absolutely you watch now you know the national sides play and super league and the european cups and old is now you know specialized position anymore you know not peter you're saying that a lot of the above one players out of season are doing extra clinics and things and you can definitely see that skill coming through you know very impressed with that yeah and the fitness level as well to be able to recognize the situation you're in and know what to do with the ball at that moment is so important dominant opting not to jump for that but rather to play defense and i think that's a smart play right there very sma just shows how well organized they are in their defense unfortunately glenn giving a penalty away there that's a very good character bearing and pushes the right to the goal line yards is going to test us here that will do nothing peter as you mentioned before will they compete for the ball they just defend and so we'll see  see and it's just causing them to make a couple of mistakes which just shows the sheer determination and that was a substitution david de lorean on that pic beautiful beautiful dive on the ball causes the turnover and we get a little space here bit of relief but well taken by that number fifteen rod they have the ball still but as usual belmont offense is all over them e the determination the good tackling the communication you name it and everything that you just mentioned is emphasized in practice over and over and over again all week long yeah you can see it's a very well coached team and obviously a very close team  to remember if there's i think there's one other game in hanover and then knight unfortunately don't have the schedule right with me you know what i think i have is technical by next miffy i believe it was wearing number nine end just unable to make any again around the fringes a set play of which they seem to be calling you know be interesting see what i'm going to come up with today see if pick up from the back and going on they go short side and out to try to get it out same thing it just means the narrow side of the field from where the bull is being played very and have the put into the scrum which is on near there twenty two right in the middle of the field seven minutes left it was nearly a charge down sorry that was max well taken by max and get mixed up with the numbers and the numbers on the jersey and they'll do it again riff is deemed to be going around the corner which means it's not straight in the portions they would do it again high school rugby they call that very closely and anything begins to wheel or look off they they call it immediately it's so important for the safety ri rif just settling down the front rows there and getting them to get set properly rockets put a stop to the play as the very end scrum dismantled and someone could have got hurt doing some substitution so there's a line out now it's a very into throw the ball and full on out today number four well executed once again jake carson is coming on for mark now in the push by belmont at the ball is lost we don't want any injuries only a couple minutes left here seventeen three to belmont see if they can do it again do it again are going to do a set move from a penalty game of rugby well executed by the best teams yes you don't vent thank you very very much pleasure as always we'll see you the next game i look forward to it
