Except that in an evenly fought contest, a game that is won by that small margin - yes, win or lose is based on 1 element; Saints can hardly argue against that, given that last minute, clawed back wins are their raison d'aitre; Never Write Off and all that jazz?!

I have no skin in this particular game - but I hate to see a blood and guts, highly entertaining game like that won on a 100% erroneous decision - it's entirely unnecessary and damages the perception of the sport. If the ref had given the try live in play - fair do's - because it was at speed and he could be forgiven for missing the dropped ball; for the VR to give it after multiple replays was just unforgivable.

But it’s an easily fixed element of the game that doesn’t have to be wrong.
It’s not easy to get players to never make an error.
It’s not easy to get referees to never make an error.
It’s a piece of p|ss to to get video refs to never make an error.

Agreed. I reckon it's this season we have to go for broke because Watto can't keep pulling rabbits out of hats like he has been doing forever. Our budget right now for next season is painfully low I believe...
