Freakish Thurston Goal

[DINGb@T]

Haven't seen this anywhere else.

Found this on NINEmsn: http://wwos.ninemsn.com.au/video.aspx?uuid=2005e619-7e8a-4a7d-98dd-f02cff4f5802

Thurston et al mucking about at training for the 4 Nations.

From the sounds of it he actually did it twice ie once more when they had the camera ready. Freakish.

Looks like he's got the English weather dialled in for the boot...

Cant see the vid but from the still it looks like a shot from the corner post....hardly freakish considering he always curls the ball in

Joey once did that from 4 metres behind the line on his first attempt.

 

[NRL-TGG]

[roughyedspud]

though it could start abit of a 4nation goal kicking youtube craze.......

I remember that kick, I've tried countless times to find footage of it with no success.

Still pretty awesome.

 

[roughyedspud]

it would have been more awesome if he'd done it from the other side and bent it the wrong way like this

The statue of the bloke in my av made his name doing this with both feet either side of the posts, there's a picture of it here in the forum somewhere.

That's pretty damn good, I think El Magics was better.

"not hard" pfft

only way england beat Aus is if they kick field goals and penalty goals at every opportunity

did slaters go through as well? (have a look on the NRL site for this one)

 

[DINGb@T]

Wow, you guys are hard to impress.

its not hard...especially since he bends it that way anyway


and if you give us enough penalties to score enough to beat you then you don't deserve to win anyway game
