I notice the nrl said the refs got dropped for having different tackle counts.

So it seems it was a fair try after all .

That is why nobody even questioned it at the time .

anyone see NRL 360? There are now claims that Lui knocked on before kicking the ball, so the first tackle should have been zero and the refs got the call right...

NRL 360... Is that the show with that wanker Ben Ikin as co- host?

He's a cowboys board member...would like to hear his reaction to all of this!

Its still a kick bro, whether it touches the ground first or not

Learn the rules of the game

Maybe so....but that is a judgement call for the refs. Just maybe the biggest stuff up in ref history is not as bad as some want to make it.

Shame the cowboys didn't get a few more wins & a home semi, then they may feel hard done by. We earnt our spot on the table & we earned ourselves a victory, 7th tackle / trip or whatever.

Learn the rules of the game
Section 11- 7. accidental breach "zero tackle" of the 2013 rules from nrl.com.
Knock on = zero tackle
The ball clearly hits the ground first ( making it a knock on by the rules)
He wasn't attempting a field goal or goal line drop out.

Now... I don't think he dropped the ball as such
But if you want to get technical and do it by the rules then it was a zero tackle.
Fair try

Also 53 minute thurston got away with a blatant trip whereas the sharks players dropped the ball and the cows scored a converted try as a direct result.

don't see how that is relevant? all the rules mention is that a drop kick "is a kick whereby the ball is dropped from the hands (or hand) and is kicked immediately it rebounds from the
ground"
Nothing about intent there. Reminds me of another incident in the Cows-Manly game where the Manly player grounded the ball in goal but it "wasn't his intent" apparently so play on. Nonsense.

It describes a drop out and a drop goal
To which this was neither

It also describes a knock on , to which this is (by the rules of the game) one.

He was attempting a grubber
Ball hits the ground first
Sure he may have meant it

Doesn't make it not a knock on.

Wrong a second time.
