Watch: Christmas miracle in September - Hooker James Parsons pulls off audacious flick pass

RugbyPass

Sleigh bells were ringing at QBE Stadium last night as Christmas came early for hooker James Parsons, pulling off an audacious flick pass not seen by a front-rower since… ever.

The Blues hooker pulled off a stunning behind-the-back flick pass after breaking Canterbury’s line with a perfectly timed inside tip ball. He stuffed Matt Duffie’s stocking with the miraculous pass, who weaved away to score under posts as Parsons waved a finger in the air.

Is this the best piece of skill seen by a front-rower?
