This is probably one of the worst goal kicking attempts in recorded history. It's like taking a shot and see it go out for a throw-in.

The only way it could be worse would be if it was a fresh air swing and miss.

Richie Mo'unga, the 20-year-old Crusaders out-half tasked with replacing the departed Dan Carter has otherwise been fantastic in the opening two games of the Super Rugby season hit the ball with his ankle, causing a wicked swerve on the ball and he hooked it badly left.

The Blues weren't expecting such a horrific kick, and they knocked it on - but Fijian flier Nemani Nadolo was charging in, gathered the ball and reached down for a score?

On replay, the referees make the right call by saying Nadolo was in touch. But what a try that almost was - and from what?

I'm just happy that Nadolo is back in our lives. The Crusaders dominated the game, and beat the Blues 28-13 with a Mo'unga try to cap it all off.
