He did well to retain possession though, which led to Coleman sniping through a few forwards then stepping the last man.br /br /It was his debut start for the Brumbies and despite weighing just 83kg’s and opposing Tana Umaga, Coleman managed to make an explosive impact. Coach Andy Friend wasn't too surprised, says he’s always been impressed by the young flyer.br /br /"Robbie's got real speed," Friend said. "He's got similar footwork and vision to Matt Giteau. That combination worked well. They pose a real threat.br /br /"Every time Robbie has been asked to step up to another level, whether it's the Australian under-20s or the sevens, he has done it, which is the sign of a quality footballer."br /br /Coleman looks to be yet another talented young Australian back that will no doubt terrorise defences for many years to come. He'll be one to keep an eye on this season.br /br /centerobject height="288" width="400"param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NAILKCIuwMs?fs=1amp;hl=en_GBamp;rel=0"param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NAILKCIuwMs?fs=1amp;hl=en_GBamp;rel=0amp;showinfo=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="288" width="400"/embed/object/centerbr /span style="font-size:85%;"span style="font-weight: bold;"Time: /span03:19/spandiv class="blogger-post-footer"http://www.rugbydump.comimg width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32316390-345872306277252979?l=rugbydump.blogspot.com' alt='' //divpa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/bOScbdrhOgMMzl_nrvCnvosQKMY/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/bOScbdrhOgMMzl_nrvCnvosQKMY/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/bOScbdrhOgMMzl_nrvCnvosQKMY/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/bOScbdrhOgMMzl_nrvCnvosQKMY/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pdiv class="feedflare"a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/rugbydump?a=xKysd7Q1_K4:BDKMX5HU3JM:yIl2AUoC8zA"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/rugbydump?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"/img/a/divimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rugbydump/~4/xKysd7Q1_K4" height="1" width="1"/ More...
