samoan sidestep

From rugby union and to a lesser extent, rugby league. Term used to describe the player with the ball running into, then over the top of, the man trying to make the tackle.

Commentator: "And Caucau passes off to Robinson! And Robinson bursts through the line! A quick dummy and there's only Taylor to beat! And... OH! A storming samoan sidestep and its a try!!! And the stretcher's coming on for Taylor."
