I thought that if the ball was on an arm that was touching the ground then it was a try.

Have the rules changed or have I been wrong all my life? (and I have scored a few like that too, so it can't just have been me!!)

Your tries should be rescinded.

Once again I didn't make it to the game, despite having a ticket, but i watched on TV down the pub, and as everyone says, much improved. Forwards were good, Mago showed what he can offer, and Hill continues to improve. In the battle between Moylan and French, I don't think there's much doubt who came out the winner! :D

Defensively Moylan was poor tonight.

That's what I always thought to. Ball or ball carrying arm down equals grounded.

It is in a tackle if opponent is still in contact with you. But sure the ball has to touch ground over try line for a try not just arm on floor.

I thought the point of the ball just touched the try line.

Moylan was touted to be the new lockyer early in his career.He seems to like all the flashy attacking stuff but not so the unflashy defensive stuff.You only need to have watched cronulla the last few years
