WATCH: Classic try from star-studded Western Force side in 2012

BY Shaywaterworth  ·  Sunday Jul 19, 2020

In 2012 the Western Force scored an awesome counter attack try against the Reds at HBF Park involving Wallabies stars Nick Cummins and David Pocock.

The hosts turned the ball over on their own 22-metre line before winger Alfie Mafi offloaded the ball to Cummins at 13, who charged 50 metres down field and boshed Reds fly half Dallan Murphy onto his backside.

The ball was then recycled to the left wing where openside flanker Pocock made the final killer pass to number eight Matt Hodgson to score the try.
