Shouldn't this be a penalty try?
Question Reference Number: 212
Blue #5 is running forward with the ball and is tackled by Gold #6 just in front of Gold's goal-line. There are many players from both teams there. Blue #5 reaches out to ground the ball on the goal-line, but Gold #3 kicks the ball from his hands and into touch before Blue #5 can ground it. What do you do?
Correct!
The correct answer is: B.
15.7i : When a tackled player reaches out to ground the ball on or over the goal-line to score a try, an opponent may pull the ball from the player's possession, but must not kick the ball. The penalty is a penalty kick.
