Took his try really well , but should the "first one" have been allowed,looked 50/50 to me.Whatever,the boy is gonna be a star of the game,if not already.

what was wrong with it???

The one the line judge dissallowed for in touch

hit the corner flag before getting the ball down so rightly dissallowed.

in the nrl that try would have been given.

Indeed and it will most likely be the case here from next season.

Why will it? Have we got two referees as well?

We have trouble getting one good enough to ref SL games, we've absolutely no chance of getting two.

Sure I have seen a thread about it already, but the NRL are/have (dunno which!!) changed the rule to say just touching the post doesn't count as in touch, the player has to have part of his body on or over the line regardless of hitting the post to count as in touch.



Sure we would have followed the two referees thing as well, but as has been said, we struggle to find one that can control the game!!

Two refs is not a RULE change. The corner post issue is something that will most likely be included into the international game thus being the norm for SL.

Hmm, I like the cornerpost rule just as it is.
