Re: Rugby, Sudbury 2nds V Colchester 2nds
Some nice shots there,especially like the kicker.Some of the lineout ones are good too but I've always had trouble getting these published.Have you had any luck with them?

Re: Rugby, Sudbury 2nds V Colchester 2nds
Nice work Bill
See you had a go at the 'live' thing too, makes you think a little bit more, 3 and 9 (although a little soft) for me stand out as possible sellers.
Good job

Re: Rugby, Sudbury 2nds V Colchester 2nds
Great shots Bill, but had to laugh at the guys shorts in no 13! Must have had the proper ones in the wash.

Re: Rugby, Sudbury 2nds V Colchester 2nds
I really like the third shot and in number 11 the look in the eye of the guy in the left of the frame.

Re: Rugby, Sudbury 2nds V Colchester 2nds
Very nice set
Some great line out shots.
Others ones that stick out for me are.
#2 & #13 made me laugh for some reason
#11 great scum picture, look at that blokes eyes 
Can't really give you any tips as its not my field, but do enjoy looking at them.
Cheers Holo

Re: Rugby, Sudbury 2nds V Colchester 2nds
Thanks for the replies, yes, going "live" as Chris puts it is certainly different.
Chaz, have sent them off to two local papers, not sure if they will actually make it into print (unlike last time) as there was no reporter there and they are really looking for the players names. Will keep an eye out on the news strands though.
They were practising line outs before the game and the ones who get launched must either have very strong shorts or get through loads of pairs a season.
Don't know much about Rugby but quite often when the ball was kicked into touch they would do a scrum instead of a line out - anyone care to tell me why.
Bill
