Stupid interpretation.
The first offence was Mo offside within 10 and obviously impacted the play. Should have stopped there.

Ginnane is correct (wow, I wrote that)

The play ends with Titans offside, even if he isn't held back it's no try
Would have Moe got involved if Weaver wasn’t held back?
I don’t know the answer and not sure if it effects the decision.

Having spent 14 days in Townsville back in the day, with 14 hangovers, I can support this assertion.
5 and half years some time ago my friend. Many many hangovers. Also worked as a bouncer back then so saw plenty from both sides of the coin.

The referee ruled that he was passive and only got involved because Weaver was held back. But honestly we can’t know for sure and the ref shouldn’t be guessing in that instance.

Was just about to comment how good the Titans are playing and they drop that ball.

My bad. Figjam.

Doesn't matter. He's that close to the ball, the defenders must take him into consideration.
Only team that's allowed to get away with that is the 2021-24 Panthers.

Yeah, I dunno, if Weaver wasn’t interfered with I reckon he probably back tracks.
As I said, don’t know the answer of what would have definitely happened, I wouldn’t have been completely unhappy with Cows penalty.
