Try saving tackle of the year

[nick87]

It's a banger and will take some beating for try saver of the year, but the Cooper one stands alone at the top imo

I think Croker's tackle is a good tackle, I just don't know if it's as great as everyone is raving about it. Still a great effort though.

Being biased Coopers was a ripper.

On Croker, correct me if I am wrong but hasn't he made a habit of try savers like the one vs. Warriors??

Boyd Cordners against Newcastle was superb

I can remember a tackle from Croker on Cam Munster last year which was incredible, was one where you expected Munster to score easily. Not quite as good as this one though.

Just looked at it, great stuff by Croker it will be on the highlight reel for sure. Other great try savers on the top of my head are

Luke Ricketson on Wendell Sailor 2000
Eric Grothe on Colin Scott 1981
Billy Slater on Anthony Watmough 2010
Kurt Gidley on Darius Boyd 2009

Jarryd Hayne in his hey day at Parramatta tackling David Stagg. Sorry about the music.

The tackle was on Dane Gagi he looked certain to score.

My favourite from recent (by Davi's standards) times is Barba on Creagh, 2015 vs the Dragons. So funny!

I'd say it was a bit of a David Vs Goliath moment, given the size of each player, but no one really thinks of Creagh as a "Goliath".

Tohu Harris' tackle last year against the Cowboys was a good one. Antonio Winterstein i'm pretty sure it was on
