Api’s Try

[Top End Eagle]

Check out the escort run AFB provides for Korisau’s try on Saturday. Great coaching whomever came up with this play. Hope it’s not detected or dissected anywhere else and manly can use it on Friday.

Off that play ball you could tell it was a 90% opportunity to score - AFB went to a new level on Saturday and this was 1 of many key moments...he took on Gallen from the opening exchanges and finished on top of the entire Sharks forward pack...throw in Fifita and Uele also.

Agreed - I (think) his first tackle on Gallen stood him up & forced him back a couple of meters. As Ray Warren said, it's not often you see Gallen being forced back like that.

He also ragdolled Fatfita later on in the game.

Fifita was off side at marker, so it made afb look like an escort. He wasn’t though.

I added the link to the highlights in my first post. It’s the first bit of footage on the clip. Clearly a set play. AFB plays the ball then runs four metres flat out and dives on the ground so Api can run parallel. Not sure if it’s entirely legal.

The speed of AFB play the ball created that try.
