Tomkins, in tackling Maguire by the arms, caused him to drop it. Quick thinking Maguire, then put his foot to it.'"
Whilst I agree that Mcguire knocked on, I think you'll find that Tompkins actually tackled him whilst he was attempting a grubber kick.
A good move by a good stand-off prevented by a timely tackle from a good full back.  |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Not sure where your version comes from, but the laws of the game state
"DROP KICK is a kick whereby the ball is dropped from the hands (or
hand) and is kicked immediately it rebounds from the
ground."
which is what the OP said.'"
Which McGuire didnt do , so it wasn't a drop kick of any description |

My only question would be "Why have we needed 7 pages to convince some people that he DID actually knock on". If they are struggling with such a simple scenario then they are surely watching the wrong sport.

McGuire's worst effort was the dreadful 'tackle' attempt he made in the first half on his own line which enabled Wigan to score on the right wing when they started off with fewer players than the Leeds defence down the right. The fact that he messed up a more high-risk play later in the game is relatively minor. Assuming Leeds had a decent coach, I know which event I'd be more bothered about.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Finally a decent view from a Leeds fan. Pointed this out earlier. His tackle effort was shocking, actually, it was laughable.
He did drop the ball though, how anyone can argue against it is beyond me. |

Well as it has just been stated on GMR that Stuart Cummings (head of referees I believe) has said that the try should have stood, a lot of humble pie all round on this thread  |

This from GH
"The Wigan club is justifiably a proud club, with a great tradition, and a club which above all values its reputation for right and fair dealing in everything it does."
"For these reasons I shall be inviting the Wigan Warriors to do the right thing again now, for the benefit of their own reputation certainly, but also for the good of the great game of rugby league, to voluntarily hand over to Leeds Rhinos what is, as the whole game now acknowledges, rightfully ours - the two points so cruelly taken from us by Mr Ganson's failure to act."

“You are playing a game of football this afternoon but more than that you are playing for England, and more even than that, you are playing for right versus wrong. You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif |

So Mr Cummings admits that one half of his (now defunct) dream team doesn't know the rules?
RESIGN!

Heard it.Cummings said that had the ball sailed between the posts Leeds would have been awarded a point for a drop goal.

So is he going to give up all th points Leeds have scored off forward passes ?
They'd still be looking fir their 1 st SL win |
