got curious and looked up his tries....he does this stupid touchdown every other time, this one annoyed me, ive never played in the backs but even i know you carry on the opposite side to the defence let alone the one handed...no reason for it

We've been spoiled rotten since 2011. Those famous wins might need to sustain us over the nuclear winter that might be the next 2 years...

Blues fans know he very often dives like that.
It almost cost him in Blues-Crusaders in 2019 in Christchurch in the wet/dew.
They went to the TMO and it was very close but they gave it.

Yes it's always annoyed me.
I've been surprised that Blues/AB coaches haven't corrected it. He should've been criticised by his coaches everytime regardless of if the grounding was legal. This habit goes back through his entire career, so I wonder if that was happening

Might be a classic case of him being so good at lower levels that his coaches ignored it

Would be interesting to know. But sometimes it takes a massive stuff up that has more consequence to get change.

I'd like to think the AB's would:
- notice something that obvious
- make an effort to eradicate it before it has a big consequence
It might explain Foster's muted reaction

I’d hope so to, but I guess we don’t know.
Silence could mean that they have worked on it and he reverted to type and this still happened and not productive to call it out. Or they haven’t and he’s being sheepish.

For punishment how about they make him pass to his unmarked winger, and remain in position defensively. I think he has other work-ons to concentrate on.

Are they going to put a fast wing outside him this week?

Is that your masked selection for Sevu?

Hopefully this is the wake-up call Rieko needs to change the way he scores tries.
A demonstration of his rehabilitation on Sunday would be greatly appreciated.

Would be great for him to come on in the last 20 and score a try of two

It's funny how differently we all see things though. I remember reading someone in the match thread being irate because he clearly scored and you could tell because the ball bounced. To my mind a ball is a lot more likely to bounce if you throw/drop it than if you place it.

I never really thought of him as quick, more a stepper. Quicker than NMS though.
