So in the same vein, in the brumbies vs the reds currently on telly:

for those that will have seen it,:

Brumbies try which, had it not have been been actually scored, was just about to have been been called a PT for a deliberately collapsed maul. The maul was moving forward dominantly with little chance to defend effectively.

There was the question by the commentator as to whether the PT would have then been accompanied by a YC had he been required to resort to the PT decision.

He suggests yes ( although we know we never set store by what a commentator says ��). I suggest yes.

As I see it, this would again leave me at odds with many others based on the most recent part of the thread.

It never came to it, so it's an open question?

Cheers.

Personally, I reckon the first one is OK - just.

There was some (but not a lot) attempt at grasping, but to me it failed the "clear and obvious" test ie it wasn't a clear and obvious shoulder charge.

Have we watched different clips?

You don't attempt to grasp someone by dropping your shoulder into them.
