Quote Upanunder="Upanunder"We didn't get any of the 50/50's that actually mattered, but still the game was winnable right up to the last minute.
Its not been mentioned anywhere so mebbe I'm wrong but I though McMeekins try was forward from Roberts, I mean, that pass is a some you win some you lose job, so I make it a 50/50 that went against us.
On the next set from the kick off, Roberts did it again to webster but got pulled for it....course, it wasn't as important on their 40m line.
The England loose carry over the line I thought was a 50/50 too, but it was sent up as a no try on the back of what Child thought had happened, they couldn't disprove the knock on in the same way they wouldn't have been able to prove it had it gone up as a try.
=#FF0000Fifita's over the line ball steal, well it wasn't even a 50/50, it was a steal straight up but if you call it a 50/50, we didn't get it.
The off side penalty on our line near the end, wrong or not, I didn't think it had much bearing on the result.
Over all, we needed to produce more to overcome the conditions, the 50/50's and great defense from Cas managing their lead, it was there right to the end but we couldn't quite get the breaks.
Can't complain about anybody in the squad, they all did their bit in a mud bath, to single anyone out like Pauli or Miller is pretty harsh imo, they didn't look any worse than the rest of both teams splattering about in a muddy field.'"
Very similar occurrence in the Catalan V Shudds game. Mcallorum does exactly the same as Fifita and gets the penalty.
