Very impressive
However if i was to nitpick I would have to say the first tackle was a no arms tackle and should have been a penalty against him and the behind the back pass was forward so that try should have been disallowed
Equally impressed – big fan of Quade, a very different type of player, always does exciting stuff.
However, to continue in the same vein of negativity, the big loopy hospital pass to his wing who got duly smashed by the Honey-Badger is conspicuous by its absence in this clip!
That’s always been the problem with Cooper though (especially at international level).
One moment he’ll do something amazing that few others would even contemplate, let alone pull off. And then, seconds later, he’ll do something that completely backfires and costs his team
A Carlos Spencer for the current rugby era
Christian Wade could take some lessons from him on how to place the ball down one-handed
As an England fan I do not like to see the Genia-Cooper partnership firing so well straight back from injury.
