Quote ="Kosh"So now we have three choices...
a) Is Thaler a liar?
b) Is he unaware of the offside and forward pass rules?
c) Has he not seen the video yet and is hoping it doesn't reveal his towering incompetence/bias?
Beause anyone who HAS seen the video can clearly see that he's wrong.'"
His answer(s):
"Monaghan is very close to being offside. If you pause it when the ball is on the player's foot he is in line. His leading leg is in front but is not grounded, this is a very tight call."
"TJ is in line and in a split second calls him OK - very tight even on freeze frame."
And if you thought there might have been a forward pass from acting half (mainly because the ball was thrown forward towards the opposition try line) this is what Thaler thinks ...
"No tries on Friday evening came from a forward pass - for either side."
So we can discount your third possibility. Leaving just two to choose from ...
