Also he was annoyed with himself you can see that. At the end of the day he was fended off by a big opposing winger. The same thing Tom has done himself on numerous occasions. He’s not immune it happens to ALL wingers ALL the time. If it didn’t nobody would ever score and there wouldn’t be a game worth watching.
Its not just wingers, and no matter how big the opposing player,mis-timing a tackle happens ,and i would say every player no matter how good they are, who plays Rugby or has played Rugby will have mis-timed a tackle or two in their career.
The thing is to learn from them and try and cut out the mistake, mis-timed tackles are also likely to cause injury, usually to the tackler.
