U13 Rugby

I may have never played for the Lions
Or pulled on my countrys shirt
I've played some games of rugby though
Had my face rubbed in the dirt

I've trained down in a mud bowl
On a cold wet Thursday eve
I've cantered out on a perfect pitch
And rolled up rugby sleeves

When the rain sheets down and playing up hill
And the wind blows in your face
You know there'll be a second half
The score line is no disgrace

Been battered raked and bruised a bit
Suffered the odd bloody nose
But with these little incidents
Confidence comes and grows

Batten down the hatches
Get on and give your all
Believe in yourself believe in your team
The bigger, the harder they fall

Been soundly thrashed had glorious wins
Its time now to believe
That playing through those hard times
You have to give to receive

The Lions play for the jersey
They play for the honour and crest
I play for all of my team mates
And as long as I try my best 

According to Sir Ian McGeechan
In an eloquent speech
I'm part of the Lions team make up
Oh what Rugby heights I've reached!

Belief

With your back to the wall when you're down in Melbourne,
On the line is your body once more.
You've given your soul, you're battered and worn
Take heart and look at the score!

Phase after phase you've tackled and felled
But Australia will never give up;
Together your teamwork will keep them repelled,
It's time to make your own luck!

With Robshaw wired, he's here and inspired,
He's taken some crap on the chin,
But he takes deep breath in, he's stoked and he's fired
And he knows that you never give in.

The villains of last year you poor world cup zeros
The judge says your sentence is quashed!
Prodigal sons you'll come home as heroes
With the Wallabies 3-0 White washed!

Look in the mirror and look at your mates
Together see what you've achieved;
That glint in the eye of New English greats
And its all because you believed!
