The clapping of hands signaled

The season to begin

Eleven white on blues

Ready to combat

The blue on whites

Thirty four

A white on blue

Settled into a three point stance

Waiting for hut two

Thirty-four waggled outside

To the left, taking a sharp angle

into the open flat

Number thirty-eight

A blue on white

Must of peered into thirty fours eyes

Cause

When made his cut

To the left

The sudden melding

of shoulder pad to rib into liver

Forced a gargled ugh!

Escaping from the receivers lung

Ending in a loud crack

Forcing the crowd to wince

In a shared oohhh!!!
