Knock on. Not much more to be said. It was a clear knock on, no question.

Hardacre out stretched arm touches the ball almost Parerell to the line it then lands 6-8 inches behind the line. At best the ball went flat. Right decision, two pod attempts at the tackle after that. How is that the refs fault.

Every single camera angle showed it CLEARLY going forwards before Hardacre moving forwards as well made it look less obvious, but still a clear knock on.

Correct.

The ref originally waved/called play on so he clearly felt in real time it went back video ref called it back. Try was given. It's not like if enough people pretend/disagree it wasn't a try that it will change

Yes and he was wrong to.







Yes and he was wrong too.







No, but it's still wrong.

Get over it try was given try still had to be scored and hall beat two men after that.

I thought it was a clear knock on, but then again I am biased.

However, can anyone explain why the new rule didn't seem to apply when Ryan Hall caught the ball out of play before it touched the gound (or anything else) and Leeds still got the restart?

I thought there were some very poor decisions tonight, but Child is improving as a referee by not blowing for penalties in every set for the most minor of infringements.

In some games you seem to get the decisions in your favour, in others you don't.

Not sure I can.

Silverwood hasn't got a bloody clue!!

It was DEFFO a knock on. DISGRACEFUL DECISION.



Enjoyed the game though, a couple of players that caught my eye, Lee (?) Mitchell for Cas, and Kallum Watkins, how good could that lad be, awesome talent.

Inconclusive for me. It didn't cross the line before the bounce as some posters are claiming. One angle seemed to show a very marginal knock-on, the other looked flat at worst. I'd probably have chalked the try off if I'd been VR.



Cas played out of their skins tonight and could have won if not for some stupid defensive play by that tattooed idiot (when will wide defenders learn NOT to shoot out the line?!?!!) and a couple of potical tackle attempts. That said, their attacking play lacked much threat.
