Hahahaha! As an old Center myself (very old...), I felt how good that tackle was timed. That special moment when man and ball vector at the same spot at exactly the right moment. It's irresisteble. The trick with defence; my dad (who played no 1 for Transvaal in his day) said to me one day; was to out-think your opposite no. to the point that you tackle him hard the moment he touches the ball. Its a question of anticipation as well as assessing what foot he was balancing upon. Its a split-second thing; hit him just right and its as you had super-powers. It was all about timing and getting in pace. Great advice. Rugby's a dance. A particularly boy kind of dance; but a dance anyhow. My kind of dance.

@Blitzbok John Eales? Spiteful and bitter, as a kiwi I always thought he was humble and respectful. Agree on Larkham though, such a great player he was hard as nails. Gregan was great in my opinion, didn't like when we played him as he was one of those intensely competitive players who would do anything to win. Huge respect for them though, unlike Quade these days.
