[QUOTE="dobrien7, post: 136195"] I hear ya lol. I ended up grubbering the ball 50 odd metres once to score playing at 12. It was raining, we defensively kicked out of our 22, with 2 chasers right on their fullback. He looked at us just as he was about to catch it, when my other chaser runs straight into him, dislodging the ball. I poked it through, then with basically (what I thought) no one in defence, tapped the ball again to make it go end over end and sit up instead of stopping to pick it up. It was then I realised their winger had come back, so instead of trying to get ball to hand, I thought another grubber would propel it into in goal where I could dive on it. But the rugby ball being the shape it is, pretty much went sideways, but I managed to stay just in front, grubbered again (picking up I would have been tackled for sure) and just won the race to the ball to score. So I ended up going from near the left touchline at halfway, to scoring a few metres to the right of the posts. Made a relatively easy task quite difficult :P [/QUOTE]
