[QUOTE="goodNumber10, post: 631046, member: 71068"] What you mean this try? The one where Farrell takes it to the line [B]Barritt[/B] makes the break and Manu executes a simple 2 on 1 back to Barritt? Tuilagi created that did he? [media=youtube]Bs_eOHFWCLY[/media] To put that all down to Tuilagi is stretching it a little. Farrell took it to the line and pulled Nonu and Read in (which is who Barritt made the break outside of), Smith did everything right for a "man on defence" which is normal in his own half off quick phase play - he scanned counted the numbers knew Jane was sitting in the pocket and left a two on two inside and pushed on the outside man and mirrored up and trusted his inside defenders - notice England have a 3 on three, nonu realigns quickly, and Farrell takes two out with his draw and pass. The man at fault was read, he should have held his man on, and left Farrell to nonu - it's the speed of the ball that creates that try as it allows the defence to stay deset and farrell to come onto the ball and bring it to the line. But you are right it was AAAAAALLLLL Tuilagi. He made a fantastic break through carter and gave a good pass to Ashton for his try, and intercepted for his own. [/QUOTE]
