Some pics from a Rugby League (NRL) game at Manly Australia.

using 70-200 2.8L + 2x conv.

Manly v Souths Sydney. For the USA people Russel Crowe owns the South Sydney club. But they aren't very good. They haven't won a game yet over the first 4 rounds. Manly won 20-2

Why did u spoil it by putting in the players

Nice shots but look a little soft to me, especially the 1st.

Dessie you got it in "ONE"......Why....Why.​....Why.....

Wow nice bokeh with the f/2.8 annd the 2x! How close were you?

Good series of shots, nice mixture of action/static images.
3rd cheerleader and first player would be my pick.

I was on the sideline, shots would vary from 10m to 50metres away.

I tried to shoot with speeds greater 1/800th sec. So some of the ISO crept up to iso1600 in the afternoon when the ground got covered in shadow. I was actually quite happy with the results. I can only get better I guess.

Heres a few more from the game.

I'd have to agree. They look good but maybe just need a little different sharpening routine. Definitely not oof, just a touch soft.
