Still a HUGE accomplishment and Australia should be proud.

Where I come from we would call that making the starting line up, that is, he is in the group of players who could get called on to take the field during the game.

Don't assume all us down in the Antipodeans don't know the game, I for one, have been following to since the mid 70's.

I don't assume that, but it's an American game with its own vernacular. Starting punt returner and starting lineup usually don't go together. Not really a big deal, just wanted you to know how we in the US would see it.

special teams = that place that non-starters go and play

Oopsy!

To all Australians, DO NOT check any American social media sites right now.

Damn first touch!

A few "solid" plays since, thank goodness.

Sloppy game though!

He's got good football moves. Rugby players generally have good quickness and speed.

FYI for anyone not as familiar with American football. Haynes is not benched as the starting punt returned. He is the only other healthy RB and they can't risk him getting injured during this game.
49ers made a mistake by not activating RB Mike Davis for this game.

Good to see that as well, I watched the game and enjoy seeing him touch the ball.
