Jarryd Hayne's magic run no fluke

Posted by 1Eyed Eel on March 23, 2010 at 2:35am

IT WASN'T a fluke, it wasn't just another Jarryd Hayne magic moment - it was a team effort months in the making.

The Eels spectacular 108m contender for try of the year, which was scored by centre Timana Tahu at Parramatta Stadium on Sunday in the Eels 24-20 win over Manly, might have looked like a freak improvisation but the Eels have practised line breaks twice a week since November.

"We do a lot of drills where the whistle blows and you're in a break situation, so you've got people coming at you with speed and you've got to come up with some answers to try and score," Eels winger Eric Grothe said after a recovery session at Parramatta Stadium yesterday.

"We do it pretty regularly so it comes across as second nature when it happens in a game."
