There is just no need for this filth, no wonder scrums are a mess, just get the fat boys on there and push.

Came here to post the Aulika effort. Saw it was already in the OP. Left satisfied.

I was at the game at 03:01. It was in one of Quins (many) "tackling optional" periods.

Thanks for that...........really enjoyed it!

I used to coach a kid who looked like him. He was our tighthead at U18 but also played fullback in (American) football. Once ran a 50m try that blew everyone away. Straight armed the FB so hard he was almost horizontal.

Anyway, big Ollie Le Roux

Just missing Adam Jones by the corner flag against ?. A hint of offside re Graham Price? C'est la vie.

Some of those remind me of a guy I used to play with. He was a full back who played top class rugby but once he returned back to our club was older and fatter but still the most skilful player I have played with or against.

Anyway, towards the end of his playing days when he made a line break he used to turn around and run backwards fending off would be tacklers with an incredible hand off. Scored many a try falling backwards over the line.

Disgusting show of skills in the video, sidestepping and dummies from way out yonder WTF? Head down, dead slow and bulldoze from 5m - that's how props should score tries.

The answer to the question is, of course, Paul Doran Jones.

Hear hear, next thing it will be backs joining mauls, the game has gone to the dogs i tell ya.

Alan Dell breaking the rules by running a support line from half way to take the pass and run it in.



I've time stamped the vid, but it might not work, the action starts at 10 mins 29 sec on the video clock.

To be honest, Dell has never really looked like a prop, not a real one.

He featured in that compilation clip ... waving one of the try scorers through like a matador.

Phhh! Scored loads of those. Usually in my dreams.
