    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.

                Lots of endeavour laced with suicidal errors.

                I'd sack Rob just because he's clearly not a lucky coach.

                  @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)

                          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.

                            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

                                  @Bones Well he should have removed all doubt by not punching the ball dead, and if he does it with the Brumbies player that close to the ball which he did, he left the refs with no choice. It was a complete brain explosion.

                                    @Damo Pretty much this. I do see your and @Bones point, but with that evidence, you really are playing with fire doing what Strange did.
