Quote: craigizzard "What with Westwood's second try, nobody has mentioned Westwood's first try, which confused me.

Westwood was stopped by another superb Hardaker tackle, put the ball down short of the line, picked it up again and plonked it over. At no point did the ball-carrying arm hit the floor, but the ball did.

Cummings on the commentary said that it's the ball-carrying arm that has to hit the floor for it to be a double-movement. but 1) is this correct? 2) if it is correct then why? He grounds the ball in a completed tackle then re-grounds it further on, there's no substantive difference to double movement.'"


Yep, I thought he said if the ball touches the ground it's tackle complete, and it did. Dodgy play the ball for the Grix try too. Also there is a Warrington player in the tackle for Westwoods second preventing Hall from getting in and securing the ball which the V.R. took no notice of but Cummings alluded to.

Yeah maybe we got some poor calls but I really don't get the impression Leeds were really that desperate to win. Once the score drifted Leeds played for fun. Should we get past Saint's I think we will see a different mentality from Leeds.

Quote: tvoc "
No doubt plenty get missed but it's also nice to see a few correct calls now and again.'"


And therein probably lies the root of my question. I bet it wouldn't take long with access to the sky archives to find errors on this basis. The inconsistency therefore occurring away from Friday night.

(Before you ask, I cant think of any off hand ..... icon_biggrin.gif )

Quote: G1 "...Grounding the Ball a) Placing the ball on the ground with hand or hands, or b) [sizeExerting downward pressure on the ball with hand or arm[/size, the ball itself being on the ground, or c) Dropping on the ball and covering it with part of the body above the waist and below the neck, the ball itself being on the ground.

So, it appears Cummins was right as McGuire's action doesn't fit a) b) or c)'"


Item c) would apply IF I was correct about Lomax having dislodged the ball.

Quote: Maverick Rhino "Nice one, "the ball itself being on the ground", being the key bit when combined with the adjudged knock on, as he would therefore have ruled that the ball came out of the hand forward (i.e. separation) so therefore wasn't "in possession" by just being in contact with the forearm.

(I assume there was separation at some point, I can't remember)'"

Yeah, that is how I interpreted it though if El Barbudo is right about Lomax then C) could, as he says, apply.

Of course it's individual judgement but I assume the VR had no duobts as, if he did, surely he would've given us the benefit of them!

Lomax is definitely trying to prevent the ball being grounded but I think he loses contact with the ball before McGuire reaches for the line. Irrespective of the rules I would expect any defender to do what Lomax did & it should be incumbent on the attacker to retain control. I'll invent a new rule & allow ball stealing within 5m of the line. I think the game is far better technically now than when I started watching & playing over 30 years ago but do not remember so much lost ball when stealing in the tackle was allowed.

Back to the opening topic

Did Ablett say something to Briers?, a wire fan on the wigan board is assuming some not so nice things were said.
