I don't know whether this should be in the 'Bulls V Hull KR' thread but i believe it needs its own thread!



How big was that hit Nick Scruton put in? It must have felt like a car crash!



If anybody has an footage, please,please upload it so we can relive the impact!

It was massive. Absolutely massive.



Scruton actually jumped off of the floor a little bit when he went in to smash him, and the ref was having a lengthy discussion with his assistants afterwards just to double check it was legit.



Have to give credit to the hull kr player for:



a) keeping hold of the ball

b) getting up not too long after the hit

c) still being aware of where he was/ what year it was/ what his name was!

Great hit, well timed and laid down an early marker. Thats what we're about.

Got to agree, especially the bit in bold, the lad did really well not to drop the ball with his sences!

Wasn't Clinton going to be the massive HKR signing who was to pulverise the rest of the competition?



Maybe someone forgot to tell Nick, before he flattened him?

LOL, Yes apparently he was. For a man of his size he's a big let down. Should be crunching everything.

Scruton is an absolute monster this year. Got to be in the England squad.

How Clinton didn't drop that ball I'll never know. I was particularly amused how he got up, and started wildly shaking his head as if he was trying to put his marbles back in place!

The hit and the reaction from the rest of the team is exactly the sort of thing you want to see as a fan (Perhaps not a HKR fan, granted).



Superb technique to pull that off.



That in addition to some of the tries and other defensive efforts (the bundling in to touch, in the corner nearest the pop terrace, in the second half, after 4(?) sets, was another good one) started to get that old buzz back around the place.

People talking sense on here today!







It was one of the best hits i've ever seen tbh. That must have hurt.





Team spirit & confidence seems sky high atm, lets hope it continues.

Ahem!

I always do my friend....

Would be good to the sl website do a compilation of each weekend's best hits.

Imagine if Sam was still here.......

Fantastic hit, remindes me of this . . . .

Scruton would feature on it every week. Every single game he puts at least one big hit in, but this one on Clinton was better than any. It really was something quite special and I can't remember off the top of my head ever seeing such a big hard hit that was legal. I still don't understand how Clinton kept the ball!
