Leeds scored six tries V Les Catalans on Sunday, three were given 'try assists' by OPTA on the SL Website and three missed out.
Burrow high kick for Hall, YES
Buderus break and pass for Burrow, YES
Sinfield inside ball for Peacock, NO
Jones-Buchanan run, dummy, pass for Webb, NO
Lauitiiti, outside break and offload for Hall, YES
Donald intercept, NO
I'd query the two in the middle.'"
I kept wondering what the hell they class as an assist.
I could have sworn Sam Tomkins at Wigan must have some assists in trys from watching the games yet until the kick at the weekend he had none Against Bradford at the JJB he picked the ball up 10yards out ran accross the line, delayed a pass and put Hansen through a gap a mile wide for a walk in try! yet it didn't get put down as an assist!
It depends on whether the pass causes the try or whether the player who receives the ball does something himself. Any step, change of angle or wrestle to get the ball down means it wasn't the work of the last passer.
It's stupid the way they do it in football where the last pass is classed as an assist. So if you roll a 5 yard pass to Ronaldo in midfield and he leathers it in, you get an assist.

Thanks for that I'll bear it in mind in future.
Lauitiiti V Wigan (at Headingley) drew the defence for him to pop the ball over the top to Hall for a walk in. Diskin's short run and pass from dummy half put Webb over unopposed V Huddersfield (similar to the NickyKiss Tomkins example.) Both were what I would consider classic 'Try Assists' but both were ignored by Opta on the SL website.
Earlier in the season Paul McShane executed two (as near) identicle plays to offload to Lee Smith V Celtic and Ryan Hall V Hull KR. The first he got the assist for but not the second.
rlRob Burrow's 40/20 V Wigan being given to Ian Kirkerl(like two peas in a pod) still irks.
