What a load of bollocks. i cried when he went over then sobbed when it was dissallowed

Can video footage be used to overrule decisions post match?

[Sagerian]

Even the incredibly arrogant Crusaders fns are saying you guys were robbed. I've seen the footage a few times and it looks more like a try each time I see it.

Damn shame, although a massive thankyou for showing that they aren't invincible. You'll go down in history as the team that stopped the Crusaders winning streak.

hmm i thought more people would have voiced their outrage in here by now

[travelling_gerry]

i'm outraged.....but i checked the paper this morning and it was a try....

Have only just recovered my voice today, spanky. Thanks for loading the vid.
The more I watch it, the more I fume

[spankytheking]

the video ref has some explaining to do id say

[Dramoth]

It was a try from every angle that I have managed to see it from.

He was still in the field of play when he cut the try line. The touch judge had the perfect view from a metre inside the field of play as to whether he was out.

You can see from the reaction of everyone around including the two guys who tackled him... they know that he crossed the try line before they could roll him or put him into to touch...

The Force was robbed and robbed badly by that decision...

[Lonzy]

im soooo saddend by the evil ref ... but at least it proves that our boys have it in em!! we would have crushed the crusaders winning streak! muhahahaha!!! they are still winners to me

Well, I'm outraged.

[Mambo No. 5]

Outraged?

Yes!

But - if anyone had offered me a draw before the game started I would have grabbed it with both hands.

Bad decisions happen - accept and move on....

[spankytheking]

lick my sack Lou Bega. Try's in rugby should be allowed to be reviewed and decisions reversed if need be. seeing as there is a stoppage in play either way it doesnt really matter, except for the fact a kick cant be taken. which means the reversed decision may not affect the outcome anyway.

a good example of this happening in sport is with red cards in soccer. they can be reviewed and reversed if the referee had made a bad decision. and more importantly the (million dollar) player then doesnt miss the next game.

thats my 2 cents and it would work aslong as they dont start reversing every stupid decision. it would work rather nicely ...or not. australia kinda ruins its sports with new rules cough AFL cough

[Sagerian]

The sad part is Geoff Acton was the TMO for the Tahs/Brumbies game and awarded a try to Sam Norton-Knight which was far more suspect than Sare's effort.

[spankytheking]

this guy sounds like mark shield the a-league ref who is completely shite...but got picked as the oz representative from oceania for the world cup.

[Goffy]

hey......... cest'la vie

no matter what anyone says ........... the result stands, right or wrong, live with it!
The boys really showed their mettle tonight, that bodes well for the forthcoming games........... bring the pussy cats on I say!!!!!!
