Agreed. Maybe the ref considered the knock on to occur before his foot landed on the line making it in touch? We got the ball back and the chance to win the game so that's all that matters. Foley had a couple of iffy moments but was generally consistent.TigerFeetSteve wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 4:41 pmNotice it says "back" into the playing area.

As per the laws above, if you start from outside the playing area, then you need to catch the ball and land in the playing area. What Radrada attempted had no chance of actually working within the laws, although the officials didn't seem to notice, hence the scrum...

Just watching it back now,Piatau was fully legal. He started on the pitch first and walked backwards off it after the ball was kicked, what he did just didn’t come off,luckily for us!Tiglon wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 4:01 pm The ball is not in touch or touch-in-goal if:

To be honest, I think this is one of the areas of the game that they have made needlessly complicated. I only know the details of this law because I just googled it, I'll likely have forgotten them again by next week. It's clear that a lot of the players don't fully understand it and possibly some of the referees too.
Re: BRISTOL (A) - 26th December 2021 - 2-00pm
Easiest thing to do is say if the ball goes over the line it’s dead regardless,fixed!Tiglon wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 5:36 pm To be honest, I think this is one of the areas of the game that they have made needlessly complicated.

I agree, don't know how easy it is to get sensors in pitch and/or ball to automatically detect this? The last thing we want is endless TMO replays trying to work out if a ball has crossed the line when it's 8 feet up in the air!Scott1 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 5:43 pmEasiest thing to do is say if the ball goes over the line it’s dead regardless,fixed!Tiglon wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 5:36 pm To be honest, I think this is one of the areas of the game that they have made needlessly complicated.

Re: BRISTOL (A) - 26th December 2021 - 2-00pm
I've long thought we need more officials and slightly less technology. 4 TJ's would help the whole game enormously. How often do we see the TJ chasing a flying winger, there is a big mess of bodies near the line and the TJ is unable to help the ref as the view is blocked, whereas, the view from in front decides it. 2 TJ's each side, one following play one trying to stay ahead. Yes, I know there might be problems but may be worth a try.

Exactly correct, it happened right below where we were sitting, Briz fans didn't agree with Foleys ruling, booing him etc, but in my book it was absolutely correct ruling.

Re: BRISTOL (A) - 26th December 2021 - 2-00pm
It was Piatau, he jumped/dived into the air from in the field of play brilliantly keeping the ball in play, he landed on the line, then ran in to collect the ball so his mates didn't get penalised. I, along with Briz fans, was amazed he kept it in play, they all cheered like mad thinking they had saved the penalty lineout, only to be very very disappointed, booing, when ref declared rightly the ball had gone forward, like I say it happened right in front of me.
Re: BRISTOL (A) - 26th December 2021 - 2-00pm
He didn’t ,he walked out of play and then jumped back in. So technically by the laws it was our line out. 5 minutes 26 secondsLE18 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 6:24 pmIt was Piatau, he jumped/dived into the air from in the field of play brilliantly keeping the ball in play, he landed on the line, then ran in to collect the ball so his mates didn't get penalised.

Home now after 3 days in Bristol, wonderful result for us, beautiful city with so many attractions, old buildings, harbour with SS Great Brittain, very lively place with loads of visitors, beautiful houses up on the hill overlooking Clifton bridge, so many old pubs and of course the Old Bristol Vic theatre, what an entrance to it. etc etc,
I can see why Gengie likes the place so much and is leaving us to rejoin them.
