King Carlos Spencer vs the Crusaders
I still think it's a pity he left NZ when he did, but then again, Dan Carter has been a more than capable replacement for the All Blacks, albeit a totally different type of player.
This try just shows the cockiness and pure confidence of the man. I love the way he walked all the way over to the corner and took his time putting the ball down. Brilliant.

nice one king Carlos - dotting the ball down right in the corner - i think the real knife twist for the Cantab crowd was when after he slotted the conversion as well

the only crusader that can actually smile is Chris Jack... great character!

Just a thought...someone please correct me here if I'm mistaken, but one of the crusaders could have simply run into one of the players in the tryzone and forced an obstruction call...since Spencer was carrying the ball at all times. I don't know if the law is different in the tryzone than on the rest of the pitch, but I'm pretty sure that they're in "offsides" positions (unless the concept of "offsides" goes away within the tryzone...).Anyways, hindsight is always 20/20.
