That goal that Brough missed v Leigh looked over until it curved past the right upright.
If the DG was kicked 15 to 20 yards further back, it would have been fine.
In my opinion, it missed and was a great call by the ref !

Looking at the video there is absolutely no way to tell and would have to give benefit of doubt and give it. However look at where Bentham is stood, he's right under that post and in the perfect position to see if it's been scored or not so I believe him that it wasn't a goal. Disagree entirely with people saying he should have gone to the video ref, we can see that he wouldn't have been able to tell however Bentham was able to see.

The thing is when Bentham disallowed the drop goal he wouldn't have known if there was a perfect camera angle showing it going over or missing.
He was obviously 100% in his mind that it missed which is great but considering the amount of things that we see passed to the video ref these days I think huge decisions like these deserve another look just in case. |

If Bentham was sure then he had no need to go to the Video Ref, how many of you have said in the past, "Come on ref make a bloody decision"?

No doubt 
I found myself saying that on a few occasions when I watched it last night and yet some of those decisions wasn't as vital or had as big a bearing on the result as the drop goal.
Have to say I'm being a touch two faced as I'm no fan of the video ref as aside from the 'its not at every game line' I've seen so many tries given by the video ref that have caused as much debate to 'was it or wasn't it' as if a ref had (or hadn't) given them 'live' in much quicker fashion. |

I like the RU version where the ref simply asks the Video Guy, "Is there any reason why I shouldn't award the try?"

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

Or the NRL version where the on field ref has to give an opinion and it's then down to the VR to find sufficient evidence to overule. |
