Quote: nohalfbacks "Why did the ref give a knock-on when the ball clearly hit Deacon in the face? That changed the momentum of the game which led to Saints two late tries. If you are going to harp on about refereeing decisions then take a balanced view.'"
I'll hold my hands up and accept I'm wrong if I have misinterpreted the rules but when the ball had bounced off Deacons fizzhog, was his teammate who picked the ball up not in a offside position anyway as he was stood in front of Deacon?
It's pedantic and nobody cares.
Anyway, I've watched the Hoffman 'assault' on Wheeler again. If there is such a thing as karma, a piano would fall on that b***ends head.
