But yeah the Blues have been shite.</p></blockquote>
<br>
Yep, <br><br>
Dumb arse #1 flies into a ruck with his shoulder<br>
Dumb arse #2 plays the opposition in the air at the resulting lineout<br><br>
If you're then having to find the tiniest of possible knock ons in slow mo to save you from a try, then you're in for a season as long as the non-scrumming Chiefs. -
That was bizzare logic from the refs and comms. A lot of things look good in real time. Obvious knock on.<br><br>
Awesome no-try from Li, man that kid has wheels. -
<p>dunno, the comms in this game used it, then the TMO did in awarding the try...?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Agree, do not use slow mo if you are using 'real time' as the measure, am sure Sky would prefer that as they wouldnt need to do it in HD</p> -
Blues look better when they get their pick and drive going

<p>??</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It isnt about saving anything, a small knock on is the same as a big knock on, still a knock on.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You just want decisions correct and consistent, and that is apparently what the technology is there for.</p> -

I'm neutral in this. The Blues have been crap at times but I am commenting only on the incident in question, not looking for excuses. <br>
That knock on was clear and obvious in slomo. That's how it should have been called. -

As would plenty of non given tries in the modern era. -

<p>canes one wasnt 50/50 definte knock on...Blues one looked 51/49 in real time, clearly forward on replay</p> -

What was 50/50 about it? -

<p>Nah. Blues was forward in any time. Hurricanes was a knock on in slow mo but not in real time.</p> -
<p>West gets Blues within a score...now the 'real time' try becomes more 'controversial'</p>

<p>If we are using real time it was a try. If we use slow mo it wasn't. Blues was forward in any time.</p> -

<p>Then your complaint isn't about real time or slow mo at all. You are complaining that the referee used real time footage incorrectly.</p> -

<br>
Which means it was 100% a knock on. You just couldn't see it clearly in real time. -

<p>referee didnt use it, the way he questions the TMO he thought it was a knock, but went with the TMO ruling.</p>
