Interesting to note that the match report on the Dragons site said Fets and TOH swapped wings before the game started. Maybe that's what his talents have needed for a while.

They show the tries at the 59th minute of the stream. Interview with Troy Nathan at the 56 min mark as well.
For Fetus 2nd try, have a look at the number 9, he seems to be caught flat footed and then just concedes and doesn't bother making any effort to tackle. To be fair to Fetu, he finished the 2nd try really well, good power and a bit of a step thrown in for good measure.
The first try is a nice take from Fets too, to get in done in the corner at that speed, beautiful pass from Tonetti to set it up. The boy is a quality finisher.
Two really well taken tries, showed bags of confidence for both. Big loop pass out to touch for the first and a 20m sprint to dot down. Really liked the second one though, stepped out of Groves tackle, stepped back inside the scrumhalf and had the confidence to hit the gas and take the full backs tackle and drive over for the try. Top class finishes both......
Did you catch the Troy Nathan interview two minutes before, feck he looks different with a short back and sides.... :woohoo:

Agree, first try was was well taken as well as the class pass from Tonetti, reminds me slightly of McComishs pass to Swifthy for the iconic try against Leinster.
