Post subject:  Offside

Just a quick question, which may have been well covered elsewhere (links appreciated) but for Watmough's second try, when Williams kicked for Stewart in the build-up (lovely kick if he meant it by the way) was Stewart offside? Not asking in the interests of feling hard done by, just the angles on the footage I have seen were pretty inconclusive, and my curiosity needs satisfying.

Yes he was, well that's assuming the 'cutting lines' in the grass are parallel to the try line. I checked it a couple of times myself.

On first viewing it certainly looked so as he seemed to come from nowhere, second time around I wasn't so sure.

I didnt think he was offside but it was a tough one to call.

Isnt level offside. I thought the rulling was "behind" the kicker. :roll:

I apologise, teach me from misreading and being on here in my lunch break.

When I said yes, I meant yes he was on ONside.

As I said earlier it's clear if you use the grass cutting lines as a guide.

Well done on quoting Lenny before he deleted another major gaffe. :lol:

Makes a change from him editing his posts just after someone has quoted him I suppose.

Oh, too late :lol: :lol:
