Quote ="LeightonP"I don't know - he had at least two Saints players jumping with him in competition for the ball, and was heading backwards towards the try line (also he lay flat out in the in-goal for the rest of the play). There was every chance he'd have been wrapped up and held up over the line or - worse - driven back into the field of play for the tackle. Menzies must have known there was a two-man overlap around the Stains defence towards the touchline, and anyone would have expected Blanch to go across from there - Saints did well to get across to keep him out. I think he made the best choice.'"
Speed he was going, all he had to do was twist on impact and he scores. Still, we scored anyway so happy days.
