Jonah Lomu was a rugby superstar. He was the youngest ever All Black, selected at just 19 years of age. He went on to have an amazing career that included 63 caps (international games) and 37 tries. Jonah was Tongan, but spent most of his childhood in Mangere, South Auckland. He started out playing touch rugby and rugby league but changed over to rugby union and quickly made a name for himself. He was very tall, strong and fast.
Richie McCaw is another example of a famous rugby player. He was the captain of the All Blacks between 2004 and 2015. Like Jonah Lomu, he had an outstanding international career in rugby union and had many achievements. In fact he was the most capped All Black captain, most capped test rugby player and World Rugby Player of the Year in 2006, 2009, and 2010. He has been given a Halberg Award and made a member of the Order of New Zealand. As well as being an outstanding player, Richie McCaw was also a strong leader and captain.
For many people, players like Jonah Lomu and Richie McCaw are superheroes with extra special ‘superpowers.’
On my blog, I am going to list three superpowers, tell you guys why I have chosen each one, and tell you what I am going to do with them. Here they are.
Hey David,
ReplyDeleteGood superpower choices, I think that it's really nice of you to want to help people without wanting the attention. That is very virtuous of you!
Being strong is important too. Do you want to help carry in the grocery's? Is there some other reason you want to be super strong?
Great use of a slide show. It was a breeze to use and see what superpowers you wanted :) Instead of writing out 'Number one' you could even list them as '1)' this might save you some space and allow you to write even more about your favourite powers!
Till next time,
Gabe
