Force wing Nick Cummins made one of the try-saving tackles of the season on Friday against the Crusaders, chasing back to prevent a try despite already being part of a losing cause. The Crusaders won the match 30-7 in the end, but Cummins showed great heart with this effort.

A Kieran Read break set up Johnny McNicholl, who as you can see above ginned it for the corner, only to be outdone by a sensational chase and tackle by the Honey Badger.

It was an incredible effort considering that with only three minutes left, the game was already lost.

On a related note, for those of you wondering what has happened to the Honey Badger shirt we released in the RD Store last week, we’ve been asked to take it down by Cummins agent.
