DODGE - 4th October 2023
The heavies bear the brunt of the pushing and shoving
The tight five is complete with those that love jumping
The loose forward trio make an artform of tackling
They love nothing more than a turnover from jackling.
Scrum-half and fly-half dictate operations
The good looking poster boys of The Six Nations
Twelve and Thirteen are the ball carrying positions
Bulldozing opponents with no inhibitions.
The wingers and full-back are there to score tries
Raw speed propels them to the goal-line prize.
The heavies are desperate to give them a smashing.
But their twinkle-toes help them dodge any bashing.
Dodging this way and that, from left to right
They put on the gas, and sprint out of sight.
No cuts or bruises. No sign of blood.
Clean shirts and shorts, both free of mud.
The squad is made up of those who work hard,
Those who dictate, and those who stand guard.
These tasks, for some, are nugatory.
They appear from nowhere, to take all the glory.
