Quote: reffy "When a player is fouled whilst scoring a try firstly the try is awarded, the conversion is taken level with the point of scoring and then the penalty for foul play is taken from in front of the sticks. It is only an "eight point try" if both kicks are successful.'"
Could not have put it better myself ! Absolutelt spot on !
Last 8 point try I saw was in 87-88 ?
Leigh v Wigan and Tony Cottrell put his knees right into Henderson Gills head. Granted, Gill was goading him at the time. NOT CLEVER !!
Cottrell sent off, but saying that, it finished 11 v 11 that day !!
Does anyone else recall this ?
The two Wigganers I think were Andy Platt and Andy Goodway. Was the other Leigh player Dave Evans ?
