Leeds fan here.

No try, knock on.

Hicks was the one who missed the forward pass I believe

You are kidding ..???

A half-volley kick is called skill...check out Andrew Johns, Terry Lamb, Andy Gregory, Roger Millward etc etc..many great players have had it in their armoury...

Yes it is , and if you get it wrong , as Danny did , it's a knock on

End of argument

IT WAS A KNOCK ON

Agreed.

Clearly Mcguire was going for the drop goal to make it 26-25. The Rugby Gods got in the way and prevented him from doing it. It should have been a try. Anyone with half a rugby league brain can see it should have been a try.

Seriously though, Leeds got what they deserved after all the cheap shots and McGuire jumping into Richards... Mcguire also ran off pretending he had scored when he knew he hadn't. I would call that cheating.

I think it would be best if you forgot your log in name and password for a couple of months to save yourself further embarassment.

Don't bite, he/she is clearly trolling.

like your style mate, short and sweet and spot on.

Well the first comment was a joke and the second comment was not exactly outrageous. Or is calling someone a cheat outrageous to you? Clearly not, Leeds fans boo Tomkins for apparently being a cheat. I don't see Tomkins jumping into people in the air though, or tripping people up when a try is on the way, or chicken winging, or celebrating a try that was never scored to try and con the ref. I also don't see Tomkins having such shocking defence as McGuire either.... he got boomed for the charnley try.

I'm a Leeds fan. It was a 50/50 call IMO as the ball was on the floor for 1 frame. In HD terms that's 1/26th of a second. I bed if they went to the VR for all grubber kicks 50% would show separation. It was also obvious that McGuire was going for the kick. That said, I have no problems with the result. The 8 minute period of Wigan dominance after the break won them the game and I thought Finch was a well deserved man of the match. If we play like that though for the next 2 months we will be in with a shout.

Of what?

change Sam for pat richards and mcguire for scott donald, move to the last time leeds went to the piedome and you get alibert giving a penalty in the last second of the game!

All this is due to the ref having the VR and asking him.
If there had not been a VR then it would have been very easy.

The Touch Judge by the incident stood his ground when McGuire went over as he obviously saw the Leeds 6 drop the ball then kick it. It was when Alibert saw the TJ where he was stood and got the reason for it in his earpiece that he went to the VR.

The official nearest the incident saw it as a knock on as did Steve Ganson.
No Try!

Top 4 finish and a push for the playlets obv

what's a 'playlet'?

lol at Leeds. Yesterday's team and a shadow of their former selves. Thank god we don't have to listen to the Eddie and Stevo Leeds jizzfest any longer.

no try for me! watched it on sky + when i got home from cas, t'was a knock on! gutted that it was, but it was!

It's the playoffs... But on an iPhone

This

Shaun McRae, un-biased australian who has no links with either Wigan or Leeds called it a knock on in the commentry. He knows a lot more about the game than any poster on here.

How you doing Shaun mate? Got another job lined up yet?

i thought it was a knock on. close call but some you get some you don't.

Nothing 50/50 about it , it was a knock on

Clearly he was attempting a drop goal, from two meters of the try line out towards the left touchline. because thats not an impossible angle at all

KNOCK ON.

But that's the point , it doesn't matter what he or anybody else thinks he was attempting , he dropped the ball , and that is a knock on
