In your opinion was the Manfredi effort a Try? And be honest!

Do the RFL need to look in to Refereeing/Video Refs decisions?

For those watching on TV even the panel/commentators were going bonkers over the last Wigan try.

Opinions please.

Couldn't give a shiny $hite! Cas last try was never a try either. Their first try was a mile forward too!

Now scurry off lad till our next game lad! School in the morning for you.

Nope but then the first Cas try was arguably a forward pass so who cares.

I've said for ages the on-field decision thing is garbage and needs a rethink.

It was just as bad as the ref going with a Try for the Solomona one when he quite clearly lost the ball.

Come on Hull

Piss off Leigh fan

This.

Oh yeah Wigan won thats the be all and end of it, you're home early even for a home game, not bother going then?

Yes I went walking back home now, never heard of iPhone? In fact I will take a pic of my match ticket when I get in.


EDIT - Here you go!

Wigan fans blinkered as usual, the lad only asked an honest question, but then again it runs through you all Jesus even Wane was moaning at the end, can't you just except you won and be decent about it.

This is a perfect example of where the rule is wrong. As far as I'm concerned it was not a try. If you freeze frame from any of the angles shown there is nothing that conclusively proves he didn't touch the ball, in all probability he didn't however as there is no angle that shows a gap between his hand and the ball. If you apply the rules to the letter I can understand how he came up with the decision.

If the ref sends it up to the VR then he isn't sure, the VR should then make a decision without any influence from the ref. If the VR can't make a decision because it is unclear either way the he can hand back to the ref and go with his call.

The OP is a Latics troll. But what does it have to do with you anyway? Take your sweeping generalisations somewhere else.

Where did you get that from. Everyone has said so far that it shouldn't have been a try. Neither should Castleford's first but I don't see you moaning about that.

Not in a million years a try but not the the Wigan players fault.
They were hardly likely to refuse the 4 points were they?

It was more of a try than the disgrace of a decision against Salford which they gladly received to be honest.

Indeed.
The only way to justify that decision was for the VR to claim he couldn't prove that Solomona doesn't possess magic powers.

Because it's a forum and and everyone is entitled to an opinion, you not learnt that in school yet.

Maybe I should of worded it better, and I didn't come on to say if it was a try or not, I was just saying the lad asked an honest question and didn't deserve to be treated that way wether he is a Cas fan or not.

He's baiting. There is a reason he only has 2-3 posts to his name, his previous posts have been removed.

He isn't a Cas fan, he is a Wiganer who supports the Latics and hates Wigan Rugby.

Definitely a try, can't see what all the fuss is about...

If you watch it back, the ball is spinning over the line. When Manfredi's hand goes passed the ball it bounces up 2-3 inches. Therefore that may suggest that he bushed it with part of his hand. He's later show talking to Tomkins and pointing to his little finger. As I understand it, thats given as a try. I'm not saying it's a great rule because I think it should be controlled downward pressure.
The Cas first try was obviuosly forward and at the time Dave Woods said theses decisions even themselves out, so maybe he was right. Either way Wigan were by far the better side and fully deserved the win.

He didn't touch the ball with his hand but he actually grounded the ball with his back afterwards. Would that count?

No.

He has an albeit brief history of trolling hence the general response he has got.

The Ref gave "a try on the field" so why does a Ref make a decision THEN go to the video ref?

What is the point? Just go straight to the VR, my opinion is No Try Manfredi did not touch the ball even with his finger.

The VR said "he couldnt see clearly from the playback angles so if that's all you've got i'll have to give a Try"

Madness, it's a good thing it wasn't the winning Try!
