Looking at the wording of the rule, seems like the correct call though.

Possible Eight Point Try 
If a player fouls an opponent who is touching down for a try, a penalty kick at goal shall be taken from 
in front of the goal posts after the attempt to convert the try.
Touching down includes: 
a . In the act of scoring; and 
b . Until the try scorer regains his feet

In fairness, Eels fans have a reason to be salty.

It's all well and good saying that a call is correct, the problem is for years there has been zero consistency on certain rules, with refs only acting once in a blue moon.

Unless refs have been told to crack down on tackles in the act of scoring 9 times out 10 that would never be a penalty try.

A high tackle isn't a foul?

 

[bileduct]

It wasn't a foul though.

I'm pretty sure that a high tackle is a foul.

 

[Parra Pride]

Ankle tap stopping a try.

 

[Parra Pride]

How the f**k has Semi got that?

 

[whall15]

Give us the try.

Give us the try.

Give us the try.

 

[vvvrulz]

Looks like another try here, this is just poor covering up.
Johnson there again in no mans land.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

That Warriors edge again.

So so pathetic.

It's so frustrating when the forwards do a decent job only for pussy shit on the edges to open up constantly.

 

[Parra Pride]

Tricky one this, try for mine but then I am a Parra fan.

 

[chrisD]

Looks good.

 

[whall15]

That's a try.

 

[NrlCoach]

[Masoe_eats_babies]

It's T-R-Y time.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

[Parra! *Clap Clap Clap*]

Yes! RADRADRA!!! What a champ.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

[Rosetta]

Guess tackling in the air is sweet now?

 

[Rhino_NQ]

I do completely agree with that.
If it weren't for the blood river coming from the nose, I don't think they would have given the 8 point try.

Radradra is a legend.
