Should not have been a penalty try. There is too much doubt. Bad decision. I suppose that is the square up ... although I still have doubts about Manly's first try.

Why are the commentators surprised, given how the rules work these days? There's zero CONCLUSIVE evidence that Jamie Lyon wouldn't have gathered to score. He was in front, it wasn't a particularly unfriendly bounce - the video ref HAD to say Try. Sure, the current rules aren't amazing, but that's how they work.

Gus and Rabs are f**king idiots. Hayne did NOT say check for a try, he said "I've got try, check for penalty try".

Someone tell Wally to shut the f*ck up - there was no clear evidence to overturn the on-field ref's decision, end of.

Good call for the penalty try. Roosters got a leg up the entire first half anyway. The best team will win from here

Lyon had to regather a bouncing ball 5 metres out from the line and plant it down. It's not a penalty try, not by the rule book. You have to be certain the man was going to score, regathering a bouncing ball and planting it from 5 metres out... by the rule book it's not a penalty try
