Quote: stouffer "Balls. The rule change was for players not knowing they're held. He's lying on his front going nowhere with Tommy Lee holding onto his legs, knows he's held, gets up and legs it to waste a bit of time. Penalty all day long that.'"
Correct.
The rule change is regularly applied and the ref had plenty of thinking time.
There's no way he made a mistake.
I'd have been gutted had we conceded one like that but he grounded the ball in a tackle and didn't then play the ball.
Right decision
