Highlanders' rookie winger Sam Gilbert made the mistake of running down All Black prop Ofa Tu'ungafasi's channel in the Highlanders lose to the Blues' on Saturday.
Gilbert made his debut for the Highlanders in the opening game of Super Rugby Aotearoa with the clash against the Blues just his second Super Rugby game for the Dunedin-based club.
The winger got the ball from fellow outside back Scott Gregory but was met by All Black prop Tu'ungafasi who stopped the winger dead in his tracks.

Gilbert isn't the only player to make this mistake with Tu'ungafasi leaving Foley on the ground clutching his rib cage during a Bledisloe Cup clash back in 2017.
