QF - Taranaki v Tasman

Big naki fan here. But that was not an early tackle. And even if it was early it shouldn't have been a penalty try
-
Just tuned in (kids to bed etc) to hear the TMO.. I guess that is odds on these days .... sigh

Not an early tackle but there was a jersey pull with the left hand.
Didn't impact anything and you'd see that in every backline move from. Both sides
Overly pedantic

I didn't notice that, but I did wonder whether something happened to foul his catching of the ball... but was concentrating on the right hand side, which looked picture perfect timing

Sowakula didn't knock the ball on because of that slight pull on his jersey. He dropped the ball in the correctly-timed tackle.

Impossible to say for sure. What you described is still illegal. The TMO can’t ignore a jersey pull
Blame Nankivell

I'd argue that the ball was punched out so play-on anyway.
