Because I participated in the production of a self-made subtitled version of this movie (well, mainly to provide the original translator with questions about rugby terminology and knowledge, the original version is really terrible), so I have watched this film many times, others I don’t want to say what I have said, but mention something else:
1. Coach Bob's level is definitely not only reflected in the chicken soup. After two defeats in two games in the new season, he played against Long beach Poly (this is a real rugby high school) and the last record-breaking game. The tactics he deployed on the spot were all successful, including the first time for Chris Ryan. Before the touchdown, the coach's son Danny's wonderful running position; Ryan's fake fax running tactics for the quarterback for the second touchdown; the tactics assigned to his son in the last game.
2. The growth of several players after the record was broken is also reflected in the performance of the court. For example, Tayshaun became more teamed and praised Danny, who he once looked down on; Danny was suspected of being unable to catch the ball from the beginning to change. Become a tough wind that can protect the ball even when knocked over; Needless to say Chris Ryan, he is basically the best storyline among players; Joe Beaser is also from the beginning to be able to recognize the opponent's Trick Play, these are all It is the mark of the player's growth.
3. Coach Bob said that he did not use scholarships or other means to grab people. According to historical data, De La Salle contributed less than half of the players to Long Beach Poly, and the only star was the shining MJD, Bob. The star the coach visited when he was hospitalized.
This is a film that anyone who knows rugby will watch with gusto, although it will feel a little cramped and shallow.
