Really? He advances the ball after it touches the ground. It doesn't move forward at the same pace as the rest of his body with the momentum, it reaches the line because he pushes his arm forward. Only the bunker saw it different, both on field ref's said NO TRY.
"An attacking player whose momentum does not allow the ball to reach the try-line or in-goal after their ball-carrying arm touches the ground may not reach out to score if a defender is in contact with them"
If his arm carrying the ball stayed int he same position against his body, then it would not have reached the line with his momentum.
And lets just say you still disagree (and its opinion, so thats OK), then why do all the 50-50 calls go against us….just like the forward pass in the first half for Capewells first try. I can live with 50-50, because they are exactly that, 50-50\. Not 90-10 or 80-20.
Doesn't matter. The scoreboard shows the end result. I turned it of after the 50-50 double movement anwyay because it was then I knew what the result was meant to be.
Called it a double movement live, same at the front on replay and still have no doubt that he attempts to promote his arm over the line. However, I thought it was sent up as a try and Brooks' legs touching his arm on the side angle clouds the issue.
It was sent up as no try. Klein overturned it.
