Pass off the ground. When the hell is a tackle complete????

 

[Jason Maher]

More legs in the tackle on the line... the NRL seriously needs to stamp it out.

 

[Spanner in the works]

That should not have been a try. See you in reserve grade ref.

 

[18to87]

Flukey try but we'll take it!

 

[Danish]

Jesus christ these video refs are f**king stupid.

A player lying flat on his back with a defender on top of him isnt held all of a sudden?

 

[saint_marto88]

I have to disagree. But I'll take it

 

[18to87]

That should not have been a try. See you in reserve grade ref.

He lost control of the ball (backwards) and then regathered it to pass it off. Not that big of a deal IMO.

 

[Jason Maher]

8-0. Bring on the whinging.

Momentum had stopped. Bizarre call.

Who was on top of him? No one I could see.

 

[Billythekid]

What a shocking call. So frustrating as a fan to have these decisions happen every game.

The refs this year,despite all the hype, are as bad as ever. A try like that can just ruin the game.

 

[skeepe]

I disagree with that ruling, but I can understand it too given that they let them try forever to ground the ball if initially held up.

That said, if the ball is still alive the referee is under no obligation to call held until the ball carrying arm touches the ground or the ball can no longer be offloaded.

What Warren is rabbiting on about doesn't come into it because the player has to be on the ground untouched, whereas Scott was brought to the ground by the defence.

 

[Ausguy]

Wow. Reckon sharks would have been awarded that try?

You are a numpty

He handed it to him. It's not bloody rugby.

 

[Iafeta]

Interesting. He had enough time to flip back over and then prop the ball up... seems like an awfully long time.

 

[Jason Maher]

Cry me a river...

(n.b. I'm listening on the radio, so I haven't seen the incident)

 

[skeepe]

Ray Warren is confused because he's looking at the wrong rule to understand the decision.

We all know St George receive a special interpretation of the rules :sarcasm:

Maybe see what happened first before commenting.
