Find out where the local rugby club plays its matches. If it's anything
like the UW rugby team's games, you can probably watch from the sidelines.
The throw-ins from the sideline are easy to shoot up close; I've been able
to shoot with a wide-angle from right behind whoever is doing the toss. When
the scrums move close to the sidelines, you can get some good shots with a
90mm. Resist the temptation to run out on the field and follow the action
around.
