Quote: Wires71 "Dec's final penalty - the ball steal wasn't good timing.'"
I've just watched the highlights back and the penalty by Patten appears to be inteference at the play of the ball (not getting out of Mcillurum's way). The penalty was incurred about 8 yards in the Cats half, but the penalty was taken about 6 yards in our half? Am I missing something, as I thought it should be taken at the point of interfernce, not 10 yards closer?
Rule from RL rule book :
Interfering with heel
The tackler who is on the opponent’s side of the player should remove himself as quickly as possible so as not to interfere with the heel. If he does interfere he should be penalised.
