LA META PIU' VELOCE DI SEMPRE NELLA GUINNESS PRIEMERSHIP
Post n°70 pubblicato il 24 Marzo 2008 da angelo190
Try scorer Lee Blackett had to wait 22 matches and four years before
scoring his first try for the club, but when it came, it came in style,
writing his name into the record books after exactly 8.28 seconds. The previous best was from Tom Voyce of Wasps, who touched down against Harlequins in 2004 after 9.63 seconds. Blackett,
who picked up the bouncing ball straight from the kick off from flyhalf
Alberto Di Bernardo, said 'I said to Albie to give me the ball inside
the opening minute but I didn't actually mean within the first eight
seconds! I don't really know how to celebrate tries. Obviously, it was
a great start and it was an impressive performance as a whole.' It
was a bizarre bounce that wasn't claimed by any of the Newcastle
players, and once Blackett had it in his hands they looked almost shell
shocked, with Toby Flood in particular not going for a tackle that he
probably should have made. Leeds went on to achieve a famous victory over Newcastle, coming out on top 16-15.
