Re: Do you think this is odd
Q1 Is it permitted for a team to take a throw in from behind there own goal line, the in goal area?
Q2 Had the player, who was credited with the try, his left foot in touch when he caught the ball?

Re: Do you think this is odd
No and Yes. Scrum V took a look at this try and Jiffy Davies was amazed it was given. The guy was in touch but you can't take a line out from the in goal area. They went upstairs, it was the TMO who gave it!cardoc wrote:Q1 Is it permitted for a team to take a throw in from behind there own goal line, the in goal area?

Re: Do you think this is odd
Entirely bizarre.
How wrong can a decision be?
Will this ridiculous decision finally force the authorities to address the woefully inept level of officiating in the Pro12?

Dudley is a fine employee of the IRFU and highly thought of. End of.

Was he there when Rainey gave Armagh the rounds of the kitchen two weeks ago?
Re: Do you think this is odd
Can't understand that at all.
1. Ben John clearly has his foot in touch when he catches the ball, so it should be a line-out to Treviso.
2. Treviso take their initial line-out from inside the dead ball area. As far as I am aware (but I could easily be wrong) you must take a line-out from within the field of play i.e. not past the try line. So this too is illegal and therefore should have been asked to be retaken from the 5m line.
But for number 1 it definitely should not have been given. Bizarre to say the least.

You haven't seen me at my best yet. Let's be honest, you probably never will.

Rule 19.2 (b) I'd say.
(b)
For a quick throw-in, the player may be anywhere outside the field of play between the place where the ball went into touch and the player’s goal line.

Re: Do you think this is odd
The Treviso player can hardly have thrown the ball in 'between' where it went out and his own goal line if he is behind his own goal line!!OneMore wrote:You are correct on number 2.ruckover wrote:Can't understand that at all.

Alsp 19.2(e) applies whereby if the player throws the ball in the direction of the opposition goal line then the quick throw-in is disallowed!! The Treviso player clearly does this.
But the foot in touch is all damning in any event - what was the TJ smoking!!
Hope is not a strategy.
Re: Do you think this is odd
TMO prob couldn't rule on the illegal throw, but should have been able to call the foot in touch.Hans Indaruck wrote:The Treviso player can hardly have thrown the ball in 'between' where it went out and his own goal line if he is behind his own goal line!!OneMore wrote:You are correct on number 2.ruckover wrote:Can't understand that at all.

Re: Do you think this is odd
I started this topic because I thought it odd and was a blatant disregard of common sense, after giving some thought to the happenings at Ravenhill of the last 24 hours that have been even more odd and to the extent of being extremely blatant with a complete disregard to the supporters who have loyally followed UR both at home and away I now feel that this topic should take it's place in oblivion.
Re: Do you think this is odd
Not only that, LK, but he failed to act properly after Yarde committed a totally cynical, deliberate professional foul and only awarded a penalty rather than a yellow card. He really is an incompetent ass
