Quote sanjunien="sanjunien"If you had bothered to 'take your time' and read the posts,[uit's not a question of who tackled Fox [/u- we all know the bl*****g obvious - [uthe question (paraphrased) is ' if Phelps hadn't have been present would Tom had been able to prevent stop Fox scoring [/u?'
I say 'NO' because Fox would have made it to the line to touch down before Tom had caught him.If you disagree,then so be it.
It's not a criticism of Tom,just my personal opinion of that particular situation.
Simply answered by the simpleton I hope ? what's your excuse ?'"
I can only assume your a WUM because you quite clearly stated that....
Quote sanjunien="sanjunien"obviously,but my reason for responding was to denounce the jokers earlier on who were praising Toms' efforts in preventing a try when[u it was Phelps[/u,just doing his job very well[u that prevented the Fox try,not Briscoe.[/u'"
If Phelps hadn't have been present then Briscoe may or may not have caught him, that is open to debate. What is NOT open to debate is that if Briscoe had not tackled Fox then the try would have been scored because Phelps only managed to slow Fox down slightly, he didn't prevent the try at all.
Now how about you stop making even more of a fool of yourself and leave the discussion to the grown ups.
