The top half of his body ended up over the line. That's momentum. 

Correct. He didn’t extend his arm to promote the ball either so the decision was correct. What movement there was involved the elbow moving laterally not the arm straightening in a forward direction.

Incredible atmosphere, game and occasion as always

Origin is like a weird parallel universe where the world makes sense. Everyone understands that league is the greatest game, spectacle and thing to watch. Everyone loves it and it's massive..... Why can't everywhere be like this

And how good, knowledgeable and articulate are the commentators compared to the rubbish we are served up with?

Did you think so.  I thought Warren was very poor, banging on about where the players were born and what regional team they played for while the play was going on.  I thought the pundits alongside him kept jumping in just to try and get the commentary back onto what was a great game.  I thought he was very Ray French in his style... talking about everything except the actual game itself.

Amazing really isn't it. We have 3 top tier nations and we can't organise a game against one of them for 36 months. Won't have played on British soil for 4 years.

The RLIF needs to step in and either make more recent matches even more heavily waited for rankings or have a process whereby ranking points deteriorate with time.

Yes, I think a start would be Australia losing top spot by not playing enough. This would happen in sports like Golf and Tennis and should happen in RL. Same with England, we should be punished for not playing a single test for 2 years. It is a disgrace really.

Perhaps. But there are a lot better in Australia.
