Yep, the last line out TT moved to the left wing posistion and duly the ball went out along the line to him and he made good yardage down the wing. Struck me as odd that he moved into that position as the previous lineouts were driven, the call must have gone out to spread it out wide and put TT out as an extra man on the wing. Quite inventive as was the wrap rounds TT did a couple of times to good effect with Grindal. TT just gets better every game! :smt023

He's obviously standing in on the wing for Tom Croft whilst the latter is away on England duty.
Whatever you do, don't argue. We might never hear from you again.

I trhink he got a dead leg and was actually trying to stay out the way?
If winning isn't everything, why do they bother keeping score?

Think the reason why he he was on the wing just before Morris scored was because we had a massive overlap and TTE was on a hat-trick!!!

He stood on the wing for a first-phase move from a lineout, with the second phase being the crossfield kick from Ford for the Morris try. An outrageously simple but smart tactic that brought a try. More of this level of thinking please!
It's only cheating if you get caught.
