Exciting match. That stupid kick at the end cost Canterbury a win. Fortunately things were destined to be very different in the semi final the following year and the one after that! Wests had a very strong lineup in the match shown here, before the flood of desertions began.
@@eagleeric2598 Totally agree. After all, he was a very good player. The only explanation I can think of is that it was late in a fiercely contested game, and exhaustion affected his judgement. I have seen that happen to many players, no matter how good they are. It’s easy to be critical as a spectator, without the burden of actually having to play!
