Rugby player Henry Seniloli denied try after shameless showboating backfires

[jargan83]

RUGBY player was denied a certain try after his shameless showboating went horribly wrong.

In the Pro12 rugby competition in Europe, Treviso’s Kiwi scrum-half Henry Seniloli thought he was about to bag a glorious try.

Running in with no-one in front of him to beat, Seniloli looked back to taunt Scarlets player, Scott Williams. Bad call.

Williams chased him down and force a knock-on right at the tryline.

The try would have extended his team’s lead, who were cruising at 13-3 at the time, but instead the missed opportunity cost Treviso the game.

The Scarlets would rally to win the match, 17-13

Stay humble, Seniloli.

I'd sack a player for that.

I don't know why a Treviso player would be show-boating in the first place, given their position in the Pro12 table:
