        TMO - that's clearly grounded.

        No it's not, you can't see it touch. Not conclusive, so correct call by procedure. Just the ref on wrong side. Totally is a try, but you can't see it touch the ground, that's the rules

        You can conclusively see that nothing can be between the ball and the ground. Or not if you're so shit a ref you get sacked back to first grade.

        Is Leckie not allowed to say “Cobber, it’s clearly grounded, you should overrule your on field decision”?

          Highlanders playing their best game of season so far. Just need some points to show for it.

          Banks is having a storming game.

                  It's really sad, but being injury prone, is probably a reason why TUJ may not become an AB.

                  Conrad Smith was injury prone a lot early in his career. To try add some optimism to the discussion.

                    Nope not how it works, they have to see it touch to overturn a no try call by the ref. You can say the rules are wrong but that was the procedure followed correctly, all cos ref was on wrong side.

                    Man blues are playing like donkeys

                      Only if he sees it touch the grass. He didn't. The law may overturn logic, but logic must not overturn the law

                        Since when has optimism been a prerequisite around here? I am fucked if that is the case!

                                  This is pointing to the biggest choke in SR history, even against a team with a red!

                                  Not that I think it will happen

                                    FFS in all that waiting around they didn’t show footage of the penalty, so I had to scroll back to look. Coverage was better in the early 2000s.

                                        Finals footy can make teams freeze and feel the pressure.
