Yet he managed to measure it to travel to exactly where he wanted it to go. It was clearly a very deliberate action.

But poorly executed. I think that's where we disagree.

Had the opportunity to talk to him and he does. Tony smith was very shifty and unclear infront of the camera, though also very interesting to listen to in person.



Anyone actually heard his half time speech or seen him coach for that matter?

You were robbed.



And wasnt it great

I dont think its important whether you think it was well or poorly executed. It being well or poorly executed doesnt affect its legality.

No, it isn't. A drop kick is where the ball bounces back up for the player to kick it. It is pretty much impossible to simultaneously kick the ball as it bounces.



If a player now goes for a drop goal and misses, is it a knock on? If a player SCORES a drop goal, but the ball bounces and the player doesn't 'simultaneously' kick it, could it be deemed as a knock on? That's what seems to have been decided tonight for McGuire's disallowed try!

I hope you can satisfy yourself on that tonight, whilst your wife is getting her share from the paper boy.

Just because Maguire is off doesn't mean were going to stop cheating. Wane will continue with the underhand tactics, and Sam Tomkins will continue to annoy the average players who fall into his penalty trap.

I'm not sure you are correct saying it would have been awarded without the cameras being there. I watched it at the game ( not seen the replay yet) but the touch judge stood back at the time which tells us that he had some doubt and wanted to speak to the ref before the try was given. Alibert then went to the video ref. So even if the cameras hadn't been there Alibert might have listened to the touch judge and ruled it out anyway.

If he had connected before the ball hit the ground, its play on.



Unfortunately Phil Clarke made sure it hit the deck first and then its classed as a knock on.



Theres no 2 ways about it mate

Whilst true this is not unique.

Maybe Ganson played it a million times to make sure that all of the fans, even the most stupid and short sighted could see it was a knock on.
