ive been noticing over the last couple of years the one handed carry is pretty much the standard carry that most young league players especially three-quarters and front rowers/back rowers. it used to be the style safety first to tuck it in under the wing apart from some of the more exuberant players but now pretty much every young player runs that way and the person to blame is billy slater. he burst onto the scene with that origin try (which if you watch he ran with a one handed carry) and his subsequent form after that involved the one handed carry. and also the next year benji had a similiar style, but at the time the 12-15 yr olds saw that and decided thats how they wanted to play and then went out and played that way, and now 6 years later find themselves in first grade, using that one handed carry which has become second nature to them but even so they still leave themselves open to strips and loose carries. just want to see hear other peoples opinions on this
