Quote: Cronus "The Briers 'knock-on' wasn't a knock-on at all. The first bounce landed behind the point at which he touched it. Doesn't matter where it bounces after that. The BBC even demonstrated it in slow-mo with lines on the pitch after the game.
The no try was the correct decision for me as well. Knock-on from KL.
Thought the officials were good today.'"
Indeed they were, got pretty much everything spot on.
As said, the Briers incident the ball did NOT go forwards, it went sideways. The fact it bounced forwards after it landed is totally irrelevant.
I can't believe any fair minded person would disagree that Leuluai knocked on, he was doing his best to grab hold of the ball and he very clearly knocked on - once you noticed it. It wasn't an obvious spot, and respect to the VR for spotting it and getting a key decision correct.
