Definite try and he was close, that’s a shocker. I noticed the ball get kicked after but Bainjust stood up in shock it wasn’t awarded and certainly didn’t look to the floor to kick the ball though it’s hard to see who does.
Shouldn’t have mattered as it was a try. Hard done to there was Bain.

I haven’t seen any of these ‘many others’ saying it’s not a try. Just checked YouTube full game comments, Facebook group comments under full match and on this forum and couldn’t find any?
Atoni doesn’t celebrate his own score. Bain certainly displays a reaction that he scored.
As far as I know fingers bent on the ball as it hits the ground has always been a try. There’s no separation in the footage. If there were separation then I would agree with you but that’s a try. I can only go off the footage which shows him slamming ball down and fingers on it when it’s grounded.

Try all day long. A blind man on a galloping horse could have seen it..... But obviously not the Disney character who was there.....

Maybe I’m being a little harsh on the ref as it was fast without benefit of slow motion but being so close you have to get those right. I wouldn’t suggest it’s intentional and I’m sure it’s just a line error. It’s just a good job it’s not in a playoff game where it could have big ramifications. Speaking of which does anyone know if playoff games are televised in championship?
Perhaps more of a case in goal officials or technical support for refs. It’s probably not plausible to have every game televised like SL though.
