3 'trys' = ?

This past weekend we went out to try a new pub and watch the Hurricanes play the Rebels. Within the first twenty minutes our guys quickly scored several 'trys' and, at that point in the game, Savea had scored two of his own. I wondered out loud, "Do you think there's such a thing in rugby for three 'trys' like we have a 'hat trick' in hockey?". Tim and I were discussing the possibilities when Savea scored his third try of the game!! We cheered and then did a double take of sorts because we heard one of the announcers call his three 'trys' a 'hat trick'. Who knew that rugby would borrow a term from hockey?? We just had to laugh. :)
