VIDEO: New Zealand’s Dane Coles defies hooker status and goes full winger against Australia

What a try

Conan Doherty

He’s done it again.

The forwards isn’t the place for Dane Coles.

The All Blacks hooker is no stranger to breaking the game line and burning up a patch of grass and the Aussies were the latest victims of New Zealand’s adventurous number two.

The Wallabies are being run over by their biggest rivals in the Bledisloe Cup decider and Dane Coles led the way with a stunning first try.

After Dan Carter showed a lovely bit of footwork, he released his hooker (yes) who just continues to show he’s wasted in the forwards.

Well, maybe he isn’t if he’s still producing magic like this.
