@bones why chase when they go over?

Why is the winger holding the ball when RM kicks? He should be chasing.

He is that fast he thinks he can do both...

[Chris]

Not a Akira bash but 2 penalties is all I have seen from him so far.

How did the term falcon come.about when that happens?

From league? Wasn't it something to do with Mario Fenech?

[Steven Harris]

@gt12 then spoils it by getting offside

There was one penalty from a lineout compete he almost stole.

[gt12]

50-22 and goal line drop-out makes kicking that a safe play

Tackling and moving bodies at the ruck. And Whitelock just did the same think Akira god penalised for.

I like Taylor as a player but I prefer Coles.

The easy penalties are the worst.

Souths legend Mario Fenech was famous for getting hit in the head. He was known as the Maltese Falcon

[Kirwan]

Really bad miss

[Canes4life]

This could be one of the worst tests for a long time.

Origin is semi retarded league player of Maltese origin Mario Fenech. Ball was passed straight into his head while he wasn’t looking. His nickname was Falcon (Maltese Falcon). So his lasting legacy is that every time a player gets hit in the head with the ball it’s a Falcon. Couldn’t happen to a nicer mongoloid.

I prefer Coles finishing tests especially if we need a lift!
