Brumbies v Crusaders
-
I think it was a PK but a penalty try was a bit harsh. Can it really be said it prevented a "probable try"?
Likely depends on th definition of "probable".
To put my lawyer hat on I recall there was a Court of Appeal precedent about the meaning of probable in the context of murder. If I recall correctly the CA said it did not mean "more likely than not" but just a reasonable likelihood.
I digress.
Makes no difference because it would have been a PK in front of the posts and a loss anyway.

I'm watching the interviews with two pantomime horses dancing in the background. Mrs M comes in, notices and asks if I've tuned to a kids channel...

Despite the last play, the Crusaders can feel annoyed after that shocking forward pass that Tom Wright threw was missed.
I thought I saw the Canes get away with some shockers last night, but that just took the piss.

@Bones If someone is near the ball and gets denied a chance to catch it then it is.

It might be somewhere in the laws, but that's not what happened.

@Victor-Meldrew The pantomime horses could have done a better job than the Crusaders' coaching team this season.

@Bones I thought it was a penalty try, Strange denied the Brumbies chaser a chance to get there by doing something completely illegal. A dumb play.

Watch the replay and what the chaser was trying to do (hint: he wasn't trying to catch it)

Can we safely say the Saders chance for the final 8 are gone?
No.
Two wins and the Drua not getting points and they get there.
Nuts eh

Ironically even if that happened Drua would have 5 wins and Crusaders would have 4

I don't think it was likely the Brumby would have caught it even if Strange. He may have but if I was a betting man I reckon he wouldn't.
On that basis I don't agree with the call. However can't argue with it too strongly either.

How thrilled would you be to have a teammate cost you the game doing something so dumb?
