It was Humph's try that I believe the TJ got wrong, as did many of the Ulster supporters around me (Aquinas end terrace) - didn't stop us shouting like, but if I'm to be honest, it looked like a 22 to me. And rather than talking crp Brian, I was trying to clarify what other people had seen for the knock-on. It looked good to me, but I did not have the best view, hence the question.

Doesn't seem to be conclusive either way - witness Castres try today against Gloucester - looked good but the referee was behind and so went upstairs; camera angle showed ball was dropped before the line quite clearly but the TMO gave the try anyway!!
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!

Oops, my post didn't really mean to say that :oops: :oops: . Was just coincidental that I was responding to Rob6 so soon after speaking with Diack, and obviously didn't word it very well!!

Fair enough Brianc.... I was only posting what I was told.... I was down at the half way line on the terrace and couldn't see what was happening!!!

Looks ok to me based on the one camera angle available. Re Danielli's - photo looks conclusive but how the touch judge gave it from the angle he saw it from I'll never know!

Castres played Northampton on Friday and Gloucester were playing Agen in the Amlin Cup not the HC.

Didn't have many doubts about Danielli's. Do you have any pics of iHumph's though?

The 2 with a doubt were ihumph's and Robbies, one given one disallowed.
