‘Never seen it before’: Lomax denied ‘absolutely unbelievable’ NRL history
But the Warriors were nearly blindsided from the kick-off after the Dragons kick-off found the ground and Zac Lomax dived over the line in the 9th second.
The fastest try in NRL history is Parramatta winger Kirisome Auva’a, who scored after 11 seconds against the Broncos in 2017.Dallin Watene-Zelezniak batted the bouncing ball back in and Lomax appeared to knock the ball up and score the try.“Off the kick-off, Zac Lomax scores for the Dragons. There was less than 10 seconds gone. An absolutely unbelievable beginning to the game.
But instead of pinging Lomax for knocking it up in the air, the bunker official ruled that Lomax had knocked the ball into Warriors fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad. “As close as that to the quickest try in rugby league history at this level in this country,” Smith said. “Isn’t it amazing, you see new things every time you watch our great game,” Roach added. “I’ve never seen that before.”While it would have been the fastest NRL try in history, the Super League has a faster try.But alas, Lomax’s effort won’t go into the record books.The home side led 10-0 at halftime but were unlucky not to be further up after Addin Fonua-Blake knocked on over the line.
