My Rugby Match Against Mangere East

This week was our second to last game before the season ends. My team Pakuranga Broncos Under 14's verse Mangere East. Everyone wanted to see this game because we were versing for 5th and 6th place. We really wanted to come 5th so we had to really work hard both in our defense and attack. The position I was playing was halfback (No.6). In the first half we were focused on communicating to each other and doing a lot of gang tackling (when a group of people tackle a person). We did really well but Mangere East used a lot of their forwards to break through our defense line and score 3 tries against us only loosing 1 conversation which made it 16 -0. Then in the second half Lomio (loose forward No.13) managed to score a try loosing the conversion making it 16-4. Then Mangere East scored two more tries loosing their conversation making it 24-4. Soon Lomio scored another try loosing the conversion making it 24-8. Then I managed to score us 2 tries making it 24-16 (loosing the conversions). Then Mangere East managed to score 2 more tries which made the score to 36-16. At the end one of our best prop Pio scored our last try making it 36-20 (we didn't get the last conversion in). We were happy even though we lost because we only played with 9 players and they had 13 players (which is a full team). I think next time my team needs to fix on the little errors such as knock on's, forward passes, high tackling etc.
