[QUOTE="Nickdnz, post: 273949"] While i don't think Rokocoko's season has been anything special, he is still the 3rd highest try scorer in the S14? Scoring 5-6 tries this season, which has been his consistant try scoring output most of his career. His international season hasn't been great, but the amount of pressure the media and the public has placed on Rokocoko, I can understand why he would run the ball inside his own goal, because people wanted to see the flashy, amazing rocket man in action, that put him where he is. Had he been successful and scored a solo try from there, which I don't think was out of his depth seeing the amount of free space, people would have sung his applause, however he took a gamble and lost, and now people seem to want his head. It just seems a little bit unfair. I think Roko should take the rest of the Tri Nations off and relax and get back to form with the Air New Zealand Cup, and maybe make the end of year toar. He is still only 25 or 26 right? I mean Hosea Gear and cory jane are both at that age now, with far fewer tests, I think Rokocoko has plenty of time to make a come back. [/QUOTE]
