Because he has no chance of charging it down by jumping. Ball past him before he leaves the ground on the slow mo which doesn't help.

Ridiculous decision.

Nothing more than a rugby incident. No longer allowed to jump in the air when playing rugby

Feel that’s a poor call against Charlie. Nothing you can do when you’re in the air already?!

In real time he jumped before the ball was kicked...

Not even a penalty for me - he has to try and block the kick - the kick was poor and went infield

So you have to move out the way or let him kick it over his head 🤷‍♂️

Or more accurately when he saw the ball was going to be kicked

Stade losing at home to Tigers "C", TMO gets a quick phonecall...
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?
