Plus, there's nothing better than seeing an over-sized, hard working ox put the foot down and gas his way to the tryline.br /br /Yes, clichés aplenty, but it was a great try to watch, and it's a fun time of year after all.br /br /The comment at the end is a reference to one of Jonah Lomu's tries against France in the 1999 World Cup semi final, where he wreaked havoc as he headed for the whitewash. You can watch that again by clicking on the related links below this clip.br /br /We've seen a few great prop tries over the years, and always done what's possible to get them archived right here on RD. While this certainly isn't the best ever, it definitely deserves a place on the list as a great prop try.br /br /centerobject height="288" width="400"param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4NKfC2EYcxsamp;hl=en_USamp;fs=1amp;rel=0"param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4NKfC2EYcxsamp;hl=en_USamp;fs=1amp;rel=0amp;showinfo=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="288" width="400"/embed/object/centerbr /div style="text-align: center;"span style="font-size:85%;"span style="font-weight: bold;":: Related Posts ::/spanbr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2009/06/stick-phil-vickery-on-wing-great-prop.html"Stick Phil Vickery on the wing - Great prop try from 2002/abr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2008/01/prop-trevor-woodman-scores-incredible.html"Prop Trevor Woodman scores an incredible try/abr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2007/07/gethin-jenkins-charge-down-kick-ahead.html"Gethin Jenkins charge down, kick ahead, try/abr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2007/04/richard-bands-try-vs-all-blacks-2003.html"Richard Bands try vs All Blacks 2003/abr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2007/04/greg-holmes-try.html"Greg Holmes Try vs Ireland 2006/abr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2007/10/france-vs-new-zealand-1999-wc-semi.html"France vs New Zealand 1999 WC Semi Final/abr //span/divspan style="font-size:85%;"span style="font-weight: bold;"Time: /span0:43/spandiv class="blogger-post-footer"http://www.rugbydump.comimg width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32316390-7300436154846613960?l=rugbydump.blogspot.com' alt='' //divdiv class="feedflare"a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/rugbydump?a=Qc_xcPqxC2E:sny3MXmH-PE:yIl2AUoC8zA"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/rugbydump?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"/img/a/divimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rugbydump/~4/Qc_xcPqxC2E" height="1" width="1"/ More...
