Vine: James Hook wins rugby with last-gasp 50-metre penalty to steal one-point victory

When you're drawing Ronan O'Gara comparisons, you're doing something right.

Welsh fly half, James Hook, threatened to break Twitter tonight when he sent social media into meltdown with his last-gasp heroics in the Aviva Premiership. And these weren't your average, run-of-the-mills heroics. These were halfway line, howling wind, two points down, Ronan O'Gara-esque heroics. Gloucester were 21-23 down to Saracens in the 81st minute when Hook lined up this incredulous penalty and, with the sweetest of strikes, the Welsh man stole a one-point victory and all the plaudits.
