They didn’t even look like a rugby team. The fact that many of them had never played rugby before was clear. They had been shown the fundamentals of the game, and how to tackle, over the preceding few weeks, as some had never done that, not rugby tackling. Out on the field now, for their first game, they looked positively puny, standing toe to toe with their opposition players, some of whom were Maori mountain-of-a-man men and seasoned players, yet still, somehow under 14.
