I\u2019ve got to say I prefer Glenn Lazarus\u2019 cartwheel from the 1999 grand final, just because of the size of the great man. I\u2019m just impressed that Dylan actually did one; he strikes me as being a bit more serious than some of the other characters who do these post-try celebrations. Great to see him show some personality, but he\u2019s no Nadia Comaneci.<\/p>\n<p>7\/10<\/p>\n<p>Cowboys get busted at Coldplay concert<\/p>\n<p>I love it when a plan comes together. This was very topical, and a case of needing to get in quick before somebody else does it. Makenzie Weale and Tallisha Harden nailed their brief; a superb re-enactment of that classic Coldplay concert moment.<\/p>\n<p>9\/10<\/p>\n<p>Dragons celebrate Titanic try<\/p>\n<p>You can see my coaching influence coming through at the Dragons here. There wouldn\u2019t have been a dry eye in the house as Jack and Rose, aka Zali Hopkins and Raecene McGregor, recreated that famous scene from Titanic. Everyone who has watched the movie has always pictured themselves doing this. Whether it\u2019s on the front of a boat or a stadium full of footy fans, there\u2019s never a bad time to pull it out. I can\u2019t remember seeing this before, so full points for originality.<\/p>\n<p>9\/10<\/p>\n<p>Daly Cherry-Evans shows his age<\/p>\n<p>Ladies and gentlemen, we have our winner. I loved this. A lot of thought went into this; it was just so appropriate. After scoring a great try, it was Daly\u2019s way of giving a little \u201cup yours\u201d to everyone who thinks he\u2019s too old and should retire. Hobbling around with the corner post as a walking stick, it looked like his \u201cGary Jack\u201d was a bit worse for wear. Brilliant.<\/p>\n<p>10\/10<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, the celebration I gave to the world<\/p>\n<p>In case you\u2019ve forgotten, here is my masterpiece from 2002.
