Eat your heart out, Pieter Rossouw.
The former Western Province and Bok winger was famous for his intercept tries, but I don’t recall him ever pulling off one quite like TJ Perenara’s Superman effort from Saturday.
Footballers are diving all over the show feigning injury, but in the Hurricanes – Brumbies encounter the Kiwi number nine pulled off a spectacular dive that didn’t leave him writhing in agony.
Instead, he was swamped by teammates, and earned Super Rugby’s ‘Try of the Week’ title:
That’s a bloody top effort, TJ.
By the way, if you missed the Stormers – Jaguares match from Saturday night you didn’t miss much, but here are the highlights in case you’re a sucker for punishment:
