What a machine.
David Pocock is already enjoying his little sabbatical in Japan. The Wallabies back-rower is set to go on a year long sabbatical from the Wallabies and Super Rugby, but us stopping off in the Japanese Top League for a bit of fun first.
After a gruelling season with both club and country, you’d imagine Pocock would be taking it east over there, but that’s just not in his DNA, the monster back-row is a winner and an absolute machine that doesn’t have an off button.
In only his second game for the Panasonic Knights, Pocock landed 15 tackles and made 8 carries and of course turned the ball over for fun as he usually does, with three monstrous steals, like the one below.
