Message: [QUOTE="HarryAllan7, post: 3158157, member: 9372"] Last night I watched my team concede a try from a tap restart. The last time I saw such a try was in Under 10's. Even then it was bad. [B]The opposition player... standing perfectly still...with our defensive line completely set and ready and in position... tapped the ball and threw it to a front rower... who simply... ran over the line.... and scored. [/B] Oh... you say.. well surely this front rower was Glenn Lazarus? Payne Haas? Petero Civoniceva? It must have been some mighty goliath of a man - a physical specimen and truly gifted footballer the likes of who we have never seen to score at will in such a scenario. But you would be wrong. The culprit was Mark Nicholls - fringe first grade player and career fill-in. But.. but.. but, you protest, there must be some explanation - some extenuating circumstances which lead to such an event! Surely our players were confused! Bamboozled! Distracted by some error of the referee which resulted in them not being aware play was live at the time of the try. This is like '6 Again' all over! Again you would be wrong. Well then surely it was bad fortune? One or more of our players slipped on a greasy surface, colliding with each other, bringing our entire defensive line to the ground in some grotesque Benny Hill-esque stunt to allow the NRL's Steven Bradbury to stroll over for a 4 pointer. Yes, surely that must be it. But that is not it. You fall to your knees weeping as the darkness closes in. This is being a Broncos fan in 2020. [/QUOTE]
