An Isaac Ross post: As you know, here in Hollywood, the Clint Eastwood directed film Invictus stars Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon and is a little Oscar nominated film for Best Picture 2010. Invictus has a rugby football storyline.
Why is rugby football so awesome and universally loved? Because it’s about teamwork, rugby communities; down to earth brotherhood that gets the job done, regardless of race, color or creed, with the absence of ego at large–as well as introducing gladiators of the sporting world who very much deserve a spotlight as superstars. Rugby football players are some of the most awesome people in the world and on Horiwood.Com, the sport is proudly supported along with the worthy stars of the football sport.
One such footballer is Isaac Ross whose dad and mom both played the sport. Here’s what the official All Blacks rugby football team’s website of New Zealand says about Isaac:
“Isaac Ross made his debut for New Zealand Maori at the 2007 Churchill Cup, continuing a proud family tradition of wearing the black jersey.
“One of three sons of the former Mid Canterbury All Black Jock Ross to have made their mark on the representative scene, Isaac Ross advanced quickly along the rugby development pathway after finishing at Timaru Boys’ High School by making the New Zealand Under 19 and then Under 21 teams.
“While his father played five matches for the All Blacks in 1981, his mother is also a former New Zealand rugby representative. Christine Ross was capped five times by the national women’s team between 1989 and 1996, scoring 52 points in those matches.”
The next Rugby World Cup is taking place in New Zealand. Get there in your lifetime to see both this beautiful, clean green energy thinking nation and experience the great sport of rugby football down under. See you there. :)
