No. I think it's spot on.
The video refs job is to prove why it IS NOT a try. Unless you're not 100% sure that is ISN'T a try, then it should be awarded as a try. Simple as that.
It has to be that way. Otherwise you're relying on the quality of the broadcast team to decide the outcome of the match. |

So you think that BOD was correct on this occasion then? Cos I sure as hell don't. You could clearly see the ball was never anywhere near the ground! |

Indeed. His effort deserved the correct VR decision, shame he didn't get it. |

I'm at work. Not watching the match. So I have no clue whatsoever.
Doesn't change my opinion on the rule being correct. |

TBH, I would have given it BoD. It seems to be going against the grain here, but I thought in slow motion you could see the ball being held up on the leg. Then a clear push downwards between the Cockaynes leg and Longs body. You couldnt see it touch the ground, but on the balance of probabilities I thought it would have.
