Heineken Cup 2012 Best Tries - Round 1

BY Grant Constable  ·  Tuesday Oct 23, 2012

The Heineken Cup is in full swing as Round 2 of matches across Europe were completed this past weekend. We’re catching up with that and all the other rugby that’s gone on, but for now here is a look at some of the best tries that were scored in Round 1.

This past weekend there was the Bledisloe Cup in Brisbane, the ITM Cup Championship and Premiership semifinals in New Zealand, the Currie Cup semifinals in South Africa, and then of course the Amlin Challenge Cup and Heineken Cup up north.

Needless to say, it’s a lot to take in, so while there have been some mumblings about a lack of highlights on here, please bear in mind that every effort is being made to bring you the best clips. Your contributions are needed though, if not in the form of video, then at least with requests.

If you see something noteworthy, please get in touch. The majority of the time it’ll be taken care of but in such busy periods, the chances are that you’ve spotted something that RD has missed.

There were some fantastic tries scored in the opening round, and we’ve got a mix of the best of them for you below, fourteen in total. They’re in no particular order, but which are your favourite?

Round 2 will be featured soon, so your patience (and feedback on this one) is appreciated.
