Unfortunately one is Capsticks.

The other is Lima's

Ngl I thought Gaskell's second would be up there (superb forward interplay). Capstick's was pretty weak by comparison to Lima's and Gaskell's second.

I can watch it all day.

On the TV they showed a different angle and showed JTA scan the defence and say something to Jacob as he dropped back, obviously the others got the same message. Jacob's pass was superbly timed.

Its a lovely forwards try.
You rarely see a try where 3 front 5 forwards combine with each other, time it correctly, have the required soft hands, passing & timing skills to create & finish something like that.

Deserved try of the week, certainly forwards try of the week!

Voted for Lima.

With his celebratory ‘shot in the arm’ gesture, you feel he personally really needed that try.

I have watched the try a few time now. You don't notice it at first, but Josh suddenly changes gear and drags two in to the tackle, both were too late and had to reach and take his body low down due to that reach. The other defender suddenly found himself over running the line, so, with that little burst Josh had effectively taken out 3 players AND left his arms free to pass.

Deftly done.

+1 was a sight of perfection the way he drew defenders in

Interesting concept. TH prop scans for openings and tells the FH what to do. Changed days :)
