I think if Sky had have been showing the game,that would have been a try.BBC coverage is very poor,should spend some of our licence money on more cameras.

Tbf even though it wasn't needed they showed a new camera angle to check the Talanoa try from the side high up.
For the Ellis try it was very tricky TBF. Initially it's not touching the line but it does eventually. It's not so much a double movement of the arm but a wriggle of the wrist to move the ball forward. As a neutral I wouldn't complain either way it whatever the decision. Under the system of on field ref decision then you couldn't really overrule it. Even under the old system it's an awkward decision to make.

No issue with the call. With my b&w specs on I thought it probably did brush a bit of whitewash, but it wasn't conclusive. It had to go with the refs call.

Try for me from looking at the replay.
As a Rover's fan I thought Hull got the harsh end of most decisions.
Best team won.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

They got the bounce of the ball more than we did, especially in the "loose-carry/ball-steal" stakes.
I'm not a neutral, I dislike (not hate, it's a strong word) your team to the marrow of my bones, but I'm glad you won tonight, we have clearly not spoken before!
