Character Representation
this clip shows from the very beginning shows the characters representations. It opens with the teacher who is refereeing who uses a very sarcastic tone in her speech and backs away from the situation, so she does not give the team the full support they need by the scary opposition. Whereas the coach of the team has a good look at the opposition before saying his strong speech to the students. Then one of the male students runs onto the pitch purposely after the other ones so the reaction of the other boys is shown on camera. Two boys react as the 'hard' boys and hsout their opinion and say 'why is he here' suggesting that they are more important than him as they are on the rugby team and he should not have the right to be on there. then the coach quiets they boys quickly which shows that he has authority over them. Even though they have big mouths and the other students are scared of them, they are still scared of the teacher as he has the right to take them off the rugby team where they clearly want to be. The two boys seem to be friends but one is more aggressive to another team player and says how he never wants his sister to be touched, then his 'friend' turns around and winks at his sister suggesting that something is going on so therefore he is a sly character lying to his friend. And is a woman's man. Whereas his friend  wants to keep his image as the scary image and wants no one to be above him as he feels he will be in control. The boy who also came on late also looked behind to his girlfriend to show he had more of a heart and a kind person with a smile rather than a solid stern face.
