special trys

[isaiah]

just listening to the abc radio coverage, sounds like david mead and shaun johnson scored trys worthy of try of the year

 

[Dr Crane]

kevin locke's was top shelf as well.

 

[ceagle]

Meads was alright, he grabbed the ball when it was behind his back, missed Johnsons try but the Maloney chip and pass to Locke was great.

 

[wittyfan]

Mead's was sheer class. Has to be seen to be believed.

 

[hunters]

Wow - just saw Mead's. Very impressive. Thought Johnson's was better though.

Watching the Titans game now, descriptions don't do it justice.

So this is the reason I still have no idea what he did. No-one has tried to describe it yet....other than caught behind his back?

Prince puts in a cross-field kick from centre-field ish, 25ish metres out for Mead. Mead running 1m inside sideline, ball goes slightly in front of him, lands 5cm in from sideline, bounces up, by this time Mead has slightly overrun the ball, sticks out a hand in hope, ball bounces up, he catches it between hand and leg, transfers to 2 hands and scores in the corner.

NRL.COM is your friend for stuff like this. The video highlights are usually up with a half hour after the game finishes.

Here's a link to the game highlights.

Johnsons shits all over meads....much more individual skill, beat 5 or 6 in a 70 metre jinking run

 

[Mr Fourex]

Johnson's was pretty special. The way he just hit the turbo button and made the Broncs last line look like they were standing still. Impressive.

Mead's was freakish........arsey, but freakish.

 

[Red Bear]

Johnsons was better

[Chook Norris]

just saw johnsons try.. phwoah.. that is something

Mead's was pretty special a well, but a large part of that was luck

 

[Light Reflections]

I remember Johnson running the field earlier in the year surprising everyone with his pace. Got a step on him too, good talent.
