03/04/08 (4) - Chase me
And play of the week goes to Luke Robinson and ‘Rocket’ Rod Jensen, who took advantage of an out of position Shaun Briscoe to execute a brilliant off the cuff kick-and-chase try from deep against Hull KR. Why don’t more teams with pace out wide use this ploy when the full-back is in the line? Too much caution on the part of too many coaches perhaps?
With the defence moving up, an on rushing speedster has every chance of beating his startled opponent to the football. And the worst that can happen is the attacking side turn the ball over well into enemy territory.
Kick on, I say.
