Sorry...late to the party.

What's the difference between this Leeds team and the one that got stuffed by TO last weekend?

Maybe if his inside second rower actually didn't keep tackling dummy runners

Several well rested players ?

[Barry Badrinath]

French gave up on that

[DavidM]

Bill really is terrible 

[andyscoot]

Can you just go through his legs like that? Never seen that before.

[gingerjon]

Like a rugby union forwards' try, that.

[bobbruce]

Not sure I’d award that. 

[Davo5]

Hmm,didn’t think you could do that,oh well you live & learn.

[DavidM]

No you cant dive through the legs of the man playing the ball

No, if you make contact with the man playing the ball like that it isn’t usually a try.

Nope but 2 officials have made their own rule up.

I always thought you weren't allowed to do that.

[Scubby]

Newman has been on the Red Bull lately.

I don't see how you can defend it legally so I'm not sure how it can be a legal move.

But, I'm not a ref so I'll wait for comment from those who know.

[David Shepherd]

On what planet is that a try?

Clubs resting players against Toulouse ? , Surely not ?

[DavidM]

Im staggered by that 

[JonNgog]

Surely that's just the definition of 'obstruction'

That's my understanding.

[meast]

How can you give a try when you dive through the legs of your team mate, thus interfering with the marker?

If that's anywhere else on the field it's surely a penalty for incorrect play the ball or obstruction?

Is it so not to upset Newman, his dad and Leeds again?

[Harry Stottle]

Surely it is obstruction, the defender can't get to the ball carrier.

[Cheadle Leyther]

Does Child not know the rules??!!
