It looked illegal, but it wasn’t
Wasps went down 17-26 at home to Saracens in the Aviva Premiership at the weekend but it wasn’t down to lack of effort by Christian Wade.
The winger was in sensational form, displaying his great pace and composure under the high ball. Perhaps he has a GAA background.
Anyway, Wade’s try in defeat was one of the best of the season as he kicked through the Saracens defence, beat the rest in the chase before delicately dribbling the ball into the try area and dabbing down acrobatically.
It looks odd as his foot is in touch but that doesn’t matter in the in-goal area as long as you aren’t carrying the ball.
