WATCH: Rob Kearney produces a brilliant 50-22 kick
Former Ireland and Leinster fullback Rob Kearney produced an excellent 50-22 for the Western Force against the Melbourne Rebels on Friday.
The Irish fullback claimed a kick from the Rebels before perfectly dabbing a kick into the Melbourne 22.

The 50-22 rule was introduced into the Super Rugby Au competition last year.
It states that a team retains possession if they kick the ball from their own half and it bounces into touch inside the opposition’s 22-metre line.
This means that the Western Force got the lineout from the resulting kick.
