welcome to belmont high school harris field for a division one am i a rugby bell mom rodders hosting needham rockets lovely day here want to give you the starting line ups first thanks to media center breeze across the field being introduced interesting to see how needham reacts you know the younger side a lot of software is a lot underclassmen are carrying a quite a few injuries now that they're at the business end of the season so that top teams in the league and so you know i think i think you know belmont has the advantage to home game that i carried as many injuries they have they have a lot of experience a lot of seasoned players on the field right now in fact there's only   force either turn over a rush pass and even looks set up for an exit and quickly here's a new thing with the collapses reset again this is where fatigue might start to settle you know lots of set pieces lots of scrums going to wear down to the tight five the fatigue factor for a front runner is when it's this hot or  choppy start lot of knock on the loose play teams maybe tighten up a little bit here just lost the handle murphy did nice breeze kicking up to her defeated clermont and the champions yes i read that great game my physical fun back and forth game champions cup as the top competition in europe so the top european teams playing in a season long round robin and then so that so they are paying compensation the winding down super rugby is coming to the southern hemisphere competitions coming to our coming to the playoffs and then the big news is the british and irish lions getting set to toward new zealand in a month that'll be fun to watch all right we're advantage i haven't kept count but this might be our fifteenth they don't know how to do it by now dale yeah i think that's right as this is where you get the training gives you a complete advantage right you know your opposition has to watch you out someone goes around the back and if their market doesn't go with them then you go to space the same principle but it's nice to see it isn't it also is  ok might have been for the knock tensional knock or yeah with a bully look like came of somebody's hand now i'm going to take another quick water break one who called for that one week so this is this is not normal rugby but that given the heat and the conditions certainly something that's that's for the players benefit so yes the world the world cup draw twenty one thousand then we have london sevens this weekend of one final final leg of the seven circuit south africa want to circuit this year the americans have done well haven't won any many competitions but they've been in the quarter finals i think almost every and that's sort of where that the u s is has made advances in the world rugby stages in the sevens fifteen's is such a such a technical game seven is technical as well but take some really good american athletes pair them with some really quality american rugby players and some really really good coaching like fridays the american coach and they've really put together a great program they have a lot of rugby players who've the just less than half of the pla so it's a great opportunity for needham twelve metres out attacking line out they can secure ball in the produce plays in front of him good take strong run but jones was just a little too flat yeah it wasn't quite deep enough so jonah kircher getting some treatment from so he had thank good running beforehand it must have been i didn't notice but it was to be seen as a constant given his position on the field so substitute zone but he can still go back on he can you taylor campbell  thirty one minutes gone twenty one point others ready to go about ninety seconds left in the h imaginary box around the what is called the breakdown and players aren't permitted to go from the side they have to go through the gate they can't come in the side of the gate the technical nuances of rugby and sort of policed by referees differently up for referee interpretation i was surprised given the emphasis on the first game i saw on the high tackle i was surprised there wasn't perhaps a and and she sent interpretation right yeah and that's at all levels to david you know at the professional levels players are yellow carded red carded for unintentional hijackers that's how serious they're taking it and world rugby john campbell comes from a great rugby family mention his older brother paul played a bit of b y u to carry on the family tradition fresh legs on soon good to see the backs from them one clapping then understood the work goes into chipping another another opportunity missed by n quite on the same page there that that he probably chalked that up with the use of the native team a lot of softwares means they don't have a year or two at best with playing experience that's that's tough osa a you know if i made them i'm looking to the future here with a fly off as a software to kick the leather off the ball outside center who runs hard srong or about twelve minutes in the second half and wonder if belmont will start to ring in some changes here up thirty five points and he seemed keen boys waiting to go on their five or six of them lined up and here comes one of the this is ben adams san antonio first year rugby player and soccer player has played really well in the second side has some incredible pace on him and has a really good boo wonder what use that would be in a  cambridge rindge and latin who are not division one their do division two side so i will use this as developmental opportunity to give the starters a couple minutes of play and then bring on some some second tier younger players to get some experience the championship and a higher seed will host the playoff game and currently table as b c high as one st john's prep is to belmont is three and i think severity and or lincoln sudbury as for it will depend on how things work out there's only six in the division six teams in the division right yeah and so it's very likely that on some news there will only be three of them yeah so sorry seven teams in the division seven seventy ok so yeah there is a chance yeah there could be a chance of three teams but i do wonder if piece we call it yeah and that's something that we're seeing more and more used in world rugby the across a field kick to to great effect and something about i want to experiment with as i look towards the playoffs to some of the some of the new and then some of the so that's the first one we've seen today this one definitely has been c a good situation would belong to me with players coming up i mean to get yourself out of this position is still a great practice and so her to be is  clears out a lot of boys had really good runs good to see a lot of alumni here too a lot of belmont rugby alumni here i see some old old members joe ark install one of the original founders of the club is here the great arc is the family  net gain for belmont there bravo cleans up a loose pass and they gain forty yards and that's something that coach tony dowd has been working a lot with the backs david is kicking and there is a sort of mental block sometimes for especially for american record players about kicking i just think it's so unnatural but when you when you infusing and you recruit soccer players and infuse them in the in the back line a lot more comfortable kicking the ball and it is something that is really coached often and has been  anders is a legacy as well his older brother played right played for belmont years back state state champion winner i was like bravo's off as well twenty two drop out if it was to me so likely they may the first time i had a penalty called a free kick called against me this weekend when i was playing for jumping in one of the twenty two i jumped george and i landed in the yeah over the twenty two it's a free kick never had that that referee
