Video: Everyone loves a forward kicking a drop goal but sadly this one didn’t count

Can he kick it? Yes he can

What is seldom is wonderful is a well known Irish phrase that could have been coined just for the joy that is a rugby forward having a kick at goal. Okay, John Eales is obviously the king of this category but big men having a go at a drop goal in the middle of open play is the sort of special treat we really crave. In November, Adam Jones had a go, spawning an entire video of the Welsh prop having a go at the posts and now another man more comfortable in scrums has had a pop at the posts. Sadly for Saracens second row Alistair Hargreaves, his effort against London Irish didn't count, despite going through the posts.
