Blinded by the sun he shielded his eyes with his hand, and kept his eye on the ball. He didn't look forward to seeing someone was steaming towards him, as he knew they were, and with the advantage of the sun at his back and a full head of steam, Brimson managed to leap above him and into him, and took the catch. That not poor play or a bad mistake by Taffe, it simply is what it is. The try was somehow fubled anyway.
He backed up Mahoney for a good try, had a try assist to Wilson, and danced his way somehow out of our ingoal after Tracey spilled a bomb. Not a bad day out imo. And certainly not one that deserves such hate. He is just this years scapegoat that everyone will hang shit on. Even after a win it seems.
I think Taffe is doing OK. He is not our long term fb, papali'i is, but for now he is doing an OK job of it, and will only improve as our team on a whole does.
