Ah you may well laugh Sadfish but it seems a pretty simple Refs decision though. What part don't you understand?

The Ref said his support player acted as a Driver to get him over the line.
Its not the same as trying to stop a player being driven over the side line is it?
One is trying to stop a player being forced out (probably not within the rules either) the other is pushing a player over for a T.R.Y now is that the same thing?
There is another game that allows this to happen frequently apparently, its called Rugby Union

I thought this as well.

If people who have followed the game for 30 years dont know what rule changes have happened what hope is there.

I think that depends on the game situation. Both times in that game it would have been better to be defending in the opponents 20, but say near the end of the game when it was locked at 22-22 it would have been better to have the ball back in your own 20 and go for a long range try.

I think the captain should tell the ref what they want.
