Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2118142, member: 1764"] Yep! Hit it on the head there Mick. Can you imagine the vitriole if the Broncos led 20-18 in a semi with 5 minutes to go, they're rucking the ball back from the kickoff, then Ennis notices the fullback is up in the line. Gives Manihera a wink and kicks from dummyhalf for him. Becomes a one-on-one foot race, Manihera and, say, Inglis dive for the ball on the half way, Manihera overshoots it, Inglis gathers the ball up, gets to his feet and has room to move. Beats Hodges coming in cover, scores in the corner, Melbourne win 22-20. At this level it is, quite simply, safety first football. This leads further to arguments about the merit of tries from kicks since so many are scored from them these days, since defences are usually so well drilled and opposition attack is studied so closely that there's often little alternative.
