Quote ="Fordy"I haven't seen the tackle but the various descriptions on here don't suggest that Taylor ever had a "hold" on Lyne. I'm not sure I would count rolling over someone as a "hold"
At the end of the day, it's done and dusted so no matter how we (or the ref at the time) interpret the rules it makes no odds now, and from what I've read a little more composure elsewhere would have made this whole discussion irrelevant.'"
As I said earlier - if Reece had kept his cool and got up and carried the ball over the line, the 'broken' tackle would have been at the forefront of the refs mind and the try would have stood; he created doubt by reaching out, and confirmed that doubt by appearing to ground it short.
I like a good ref rant, but if that had been awarded against us, we'd be having the same argument on here, but from the reverse position.
