again ...

Wales v Oz .. penalty to Oz in 22m .... Oz wanted to take a quick tap but Barnes called them back to issue a YC to a welshman.
should he have allowd play to see if a score occurred and then award the YC?

go back to last week in Tokyo ... and Rocky defo asked Rolland to allow him to take tap rather than waste adv of quick tap against broken defence ..

who was right?
both?

I suggest Tokyo was correct.:chin:


Play on against the broken defence if they score quids in, but if they don't you can come back for the PK and then YC the guy:noyc: , two bites of the cherry (un like the jackler who only gets one!:wink: )

I don't have an answer. Ball is dead, so presumably it must be possible for the ref to prevent its resurrection - we do it all the time. I'd have thought it would be good management to deal with the YC when convenient to the non-offending side.

If you award the try, you can still exercise the YC-option after the score.
