My game 2 weeks ago.
Black 2nd team vs Blue 3rd team, fairly scrappy etc.
Blue bundle towards the line and as he crosses is tackled by a couple of black players. Blue ends up on his back ball on chest in in-goal, legs in field of play. The split second blue lands on his back the ball is ripped from him by black and with few options touched down.
Blue try to tell me it was held up so should be 5 mt scrum attacking. I disagree as although he didn't place the ball down I believe held up should at least be over a period of a couple of seconds. In this case the ball was immediately ripped.
So carried over by blue, made dead by a black touchdown - 22 drop.
Thoughts?
and have a happy new year.
