If the ref calls for a decision on it from the vid ref then it was only going to go one way but to ask for the call was rubbish.

It was though.

The last one I remember seeing was Wembley 71. Is it only us gives them away?

There must be someone that couldn't be @rsed supporting the team today and watched it on the box


Was it deffo correct decision? As already said they are as rare as you get in RL. That was a massive turning point in the game.

Get over it, the ref was was asking for clarification about the timing of the contact from Paul.

Not being funny here - being at the game - but based on what, was it a guaranteed scoring opportunity

You are becoming very repetitive, did Cummings work at Turners when you did?

Even if it was. How many have you seen awarded?

Without a doubt a penalty try,Hicks only made one mistake all night and that was in Leighs favour,a knock on behind the scrum by Ridyard.

Tackled without the ball denying a definite scoring opportunity; penalty try.

As heartbreaking as it was to lose it late on, I can at least feel a little better knowing it was a fair call for penalty Try.

But as the OP did say when was the last time you can remember a Penalty Try being awarded............Every Preston Guild.

Doesn't matter when the last one was, if it was a penalty try then it was a penalty try.

Maybe not ......But I wonder when the next one is awarded on SKY TV for similar offences...........

Correct decision for me.

If Paul would have tacked him moments after he released the ball, it would have just been a penalty.

He was tackles afterwards, and Paul knew what he was doing.

agree, there was no other option

Was there not one given in SL earlier this season? Don't think it affected the outcome of the game, but I'm sure I remember reading about it.

Could be dreaming I suppose.

Either way, rare or common, if it was the right decision then it was the right decision.

Some people criticise refs when they get it wrong, now we're complaining when he gets it right.....

???????

I honestly missed have missed the part where Sheffield brought on the sub with the 7 foot legs then.

Ben Thaler gave one against Wakefield about 5 or 6 weeks ago. Wasn't there one in the last world cup final, too?
