I can't believe anyone thinks that's a double movement, much less an NRL referee.

He ends up almost fully in the in goal.
Doesn't matter. He still deliberately promoted the ball before he crossed the line.

If you can explain how he can be considered to have promoted the ball past a point that's behind him (given momentum) then maybe you have a point.

Double movement involves an illegal promotion of the ball.

Try. Move on

Gotta feel for Melbourne. They’re only the 2nd team in history after the Roosters in 2020/21 to suffer injuries.

Good decision by the video ref. At least there is consistency. There was an identical try scored either yesterday or last weekend (can't remember lol)

It went to the video ref and it was ruled a try, because there was momentum still in the tackle. His whole body is still sliding forward and ends up across the try line.
Nonsense decision, none of this has ever mattered, the ball carrying arm was brought to the ground in the tackle and then the ball carrier promoted it by moving their arm. That is a double movement as it has been called for decades.

What constitutes a double movement has just changed. What you’re saying is if there’s momentum in the tackle the ball carrier can promote the football, that’s a completely f**king new concept.
