    Roosters coach Trent Robinson hopes Mark Nawaqanitawase's miracle try during their NRL loss to the Bulldogs will inspire many generations to come

    Roosters coach Trent Robinson hopes Mark Nawaqanitawase's miracle try during their NRL loss to the Bulldogs will inspire many generations to come


    The former Wallaby, who's in his first season with the Chooks, tip-toed down the sideline, before hopping on his left foot, kicking the ball into the in-goal and regathering to score what many are calling one of the greatest individual tries ever.

    Robinson hopes a try like Nawaqanitawase's inspires future players to be confident and play with freedom.
