This is shocking.
Saracens currently lead Toulon 10-0, but it could have been a lot different if it were not for this absolute howler. Toulon’s Josua Tuisova was given an opportunity to finish a well-worked move in the seventh minute, but made an absolute mess of it.
Thew winger ran onto a beautifully fed pass by former All Black Ma’a Nonu, with what looked to be a certain try for the French side. If there was every a rugby definition for an absolute sitter, no doubt this was it.
The Fijian somehow managed to kick the ball out of his own hand as he went to touch down.
Referee Nigel Owens spotted something and upon closer inspection by the TMO, fears were confirmed for the former three-time champs. Shocking.
