Couple of tries from the late 2000s in there but from watching this video, you'd think the 6N only really got going in the 2010s, and that the 2021 6N was head and shoulders above the rest. Some awesome tries from the early 2000s that didn't get a look-in... ever heard of Jason Robinson, for example? Or Shane Williams? 🤔
Agreed. It should be titled 'Tries I like from the last few years when I started been watching rugby and I couldn't be bothered looking into the history and lore because fart' Everest, of what?
That host a fan idea reminds me of the Adopt a Lion campaign in the 2017 tour to New Zealand. Some of my friends did it and absolutely loved it, I still hear about it to this day lol! Great idea.
Nice tries, I'd like to see a video of the most 'iconic' tries, match winners etc, the real intense ones. Fair play, great content - will check out that adopt a fan site too👍
Vincent Clerks maybe has a forward pass in the build-up. My fave is CJ Atansder's v England 2018. Furlong's pivot and feed to Aki is so subtle, as the English back line focuses on hammering Sexton on the loop, except the ball isn't going there....
Wales - England 2013. About 65 mins in. England restart after a drop goal by Wales. England knock it on and Halfpenny gathers just outside the Welsh 22. Ref plays advantage. Faletau takes it into contact, Warbuton makes a break and gets tackled, Phillips gathers, out to Biggar, out to Halfpenny, then Roberts, Tipuric throws the dummy pass and draws in the English wing, out to Cuthbert who scores in the corner.
Jumping to avoid a tackle is not actually mentioned in rugby laws, when it is penalised it is penalised as dangerous play. There is nothing dangerous in what May does, so it wasn't penalised.
@@willcollinson1018 While you’re correct in stating that jumping a tackle isn’t a rule in and of itself, the act of jumping a tackle can be considered dangerous play, for obvious reasons but especially so now given the recent concerns and changes in the rules around concussion 🤕 This is what former international referee Nigel Owens had to say: “Most notably, Welsh referee Nigel Owens stated his opinion that this was dangerous play by the ball carrier. The verdict should have been a penalty to Italy, not a try to England. His point was that diving for the line to score a try is allowed. However, jumping up into the air to avoid a tackle is not. “ Freeze the video on 00:26 and tell me that isn’t dangerous. Given its contentiousness it certainly doesn’t belong in a video of great tries.
Johnny May jumped out of the tackle. It has no place in a top ten tries compilation. And yes i am pissed it there. Oh and the Vincent Clerc try had a ridiculous forward pass in the middle of the move and a double movement to score.
Since when is "jumping out of a tackle" against the laws of rugby? What parallel world do YOU live in? A tackle is only completed when the ball carrier is brought to the ground and held, if only for an instant. May's movement is not only legal in rugby union, but also in rugby league and even American football -- all sports descended from the same ancestor. You are out of your mind.
There is no mention of 'double movement' in rugby union laws, it is a rugby league law. The law in rugby union states that once tackled, a player may place the ball down in any direction. Granted, what he did may not fall within this law either.
@@willcollinson1018 yes and no. After being tackled, the player can't move the ball forward to reach for the try line unless their own momentum is carrying them over, they can't use their body to make them carry on rolling. Or atleast that is my interpretation of it, I may be wrong. Recently in (I think) Wales vs Scotland a player was penalised for rolling after a tackle in a way that wasn't with their own momentum so it's that same rule just applied to try scoring situation. 2019 Scotland vs Italy, Scotland had a try ruled out for a double movement (even if in union it's not technically called that), the video for that is called "Scotland score try before TMO confirms double movement! | Guinness Six Nations" if you want to watch it and see what I mean.
Impossible task to pick the ten best tries, but thanks for trying. BTW I'd put Slade's interception try against Ireland...how he manages to not lose control if it... awesome!
Think the argument is you can jump for the line. Granted, May is clearly pushing the limits of that rule, and I expected it to be disallowed, but that seems to be how it was considered legal, and the more I think of it, the less I can see how you could disallow this, but not every other try scored by a winger diving for the line.
@@willmc4403 I understand your point but May didn't jump for the line: he was avoiding the tackle by jumping over the tackler. A fine line I admit but I'm Scottish!
Honestly, poor choices, obviously only been watching rugby for a short period of time. How is Jonny May’s try a top ten, it was basically a dive for the line and I don’t even think it should have been allowed. Rees-Zammit is overrated, as there have been lots of chips in the six nations, which are undoubtably better. Like I said again, bad selection
A bizarre selection, but it's always great to watch beautiful tries :)
That pass from Russell still amazes me. It looks like it’s gonna be intercepted every time I watch it

Everest, of what?
Clerc’s was off a forward pass plus crawling, the rest were nice…
still the most impressive one

Good selection
Yep, N°1, she's a beauty.
Awesome video! I would've had the French try first, Penaud's ability to score tries is unreal!
Mays try would be classed as dangerous play now because he jumped the tackle player. After the chiefs player done it to Smith
in 2013 Fofana turns off the light at Twickenham with a solo try
Johnny May clearly jumps up to avoid contact, which is illegal, the try souldn't have been given
Jumping to avoid a tackle is not actually mentioned in rugby laws, when it is penalised it is penalised as dangerous play. There is nothing dangerous in what May does, so it wasn't penalised.

@@3232groundhog 100% penalty to Italy and if it had been an Italian scoring the try I suspect a different outcome.

Whine whine whine.
@@joeboonmusic4004 yup and im gonna keep whining every time this rubbish keeps turning up
The pass at 2:06 is forward and the grounding of that same try is a massive double movement, no idea how that try was allowed
I thought that at the time and looking at it again I still think so.

Nice picks. I'm surprised there isn't one scored by Shane Williams though. But I admit I can't think of a specific one.
Yeah last few years, obviously only a recent fan, I have been watching rugby for 40 years and seen so many amazing tries, none of which shown here
That first try by May will always be bullshit for me. He just jumped over the tackler, thats illegal
There were a few forward passes, but hey rugby is showbiz now innit.
Better add Duhan’s try from last weekend.
Impossible task to pick the ten best tries, but thanks for trying.
BTW I'd put Slade's interception try against Ireland...how he manages to not lose control if it... awesome!
Now you have to put capuozzo in their
You missed so many superb tries from the earlier years 🤦♂️
How is May’s try legal?
Agreed. Should have bèn disallowed and penalised for jumping into a tackle. Dangerous play.
Jump dodging a tackle is illegal so it shouldn't have counted at all
I thought the same.

1st try, knock on at the start.
Andrew Conway v Italy 2022 six nathions
Poor selection of tries, too many against Italy
Italy v wales mens 2022
Not enough forwards tries
And Fofana against England in 2013?
It's illegal to jump into or through a tackle.
True ! Nigel Owens talked through this try and said that it was illegal

Very poor choice of tries
