Have just watched a recording of last nights game (Friday). At 15.30 (game time) Wasps have an attacking line-out 5Mts out, ball is thrown in, maul formed, and while the referee, Matt Carley, is keeping the defence back two attackers No's 12 and 14 join the maul. Additional weight helps the maul move toward the try line. Maul collapsed, penalty try given and Bath player sent to bin.
My question concerns the two backs joining the maul, their addition weight/power must have been instrumental in the forward motion Wasps gained, but their joining was illegal. this lead to an incorrect penalty try and yellow card,
Comments from those involved at higher levels of the game appreciated.
