Falcon (n)
A tongue-in-cheek description that decribes an accidental knock to the head with a ball.
Super Rugby seems to feature all sorts of balls flying into people's heads and faces which end up being immensely comical to us.
Most of the time, the victim doesn't know what's happened and tries to play it off, but this weekend referee Nick Briant had the perfect response to when the Chiefs scrumhalf Brad Weber fired a pass right into Briant's nose.
As you can see, Briant takes it extremely well, even cracking up the commentary team of Justin Marshall and Grant Nesbitt in the process with his quick witted response.
Not only is it one of the best falcon responses ever, but it is probably one of the best falcons ever in it's own right.
I reckon that this is better than any of the Top 5 Falcons of All Time from Rugby HQ
