That is how long it took the video ref to look at the Hull try by a finger tip! it must be a record!

Got the correct decision as well.

Perhaps if they'd spent that long on it at the wire / sts game then they may have got the right decision there as well

notice they used the zoom camera last night too! looking not to award it, yet if same zoom was used thursday night it would have been shown as a cleay try

I reckon the decisions from thursday affected thaler's thinking last night

That was enough time for SKY TV to re write the script.

I was thinking exactly the same.

Maybe it's time to re-think the rules. Full pressure with the palm of the hand rather than a little finger touching the ball for a split second just as the ball hits the ground.

I agree

I agree, I would like to see the rule state "Controlled downward pressure", implying the player must have possession and not in the act of losing the ball.

i agree with that.you cannot apply much pressure on a rugby ball with your little finger sliding down the ball.
