<p>There's no clear and obvious grounding - but, <strong>there's no clear and obvious held up either</strong>.</p>

<p>That's only relevant if the ref had asked whether "there is a reason not to award the try". But that's not what the ref asked.</p> -

Ref asked the soft cautious question.... Still, happy with 21 - 0 at halftime -
Bloody hell Wales sort your shit out.

Admittedly I only just tuned in as I thought it was a 7.30 start so have no idea how the game is going, but I have Welsh grandparents so like to see them do well. 21-0 is not doing well! -

<p>In my mind, better than nine times out ten Donald's got that ball on the ground. It's far more likely that he has than he hasn't - why is the burden of proof on the try-scorer?</p> -

<p>Yeah - but where was the evidence that it was held up? The only thing lacking was a camera angle - the balance of likelihoods was a try - and very clearly in favour of a try.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Stupid decision in my opinion.</p> -
only been watching for 10 minutes , chiefs look extra committed in defence

<p>They don't need proof that it was held up. It needs to be clear and obvious that there was a grounding. If that isn't clear. there isn't a try. That's just the way it works. Would have preferred another outcome, but if they can't see a grounding, there isn't a try.</p>
