What a treat. :wow: :clap:
Thought the Tigers were that little more committed and just a about deserved it . . . 'specially with two men off at the end.
This actually prompts one of my queries.
i)How come Murphy was allowed to come back on to commence extra-time? As the name suggests it's an extension of the game not the start of a new one.
ii)And that restart kick which resulted in a PK. Did he ping for a retake/scrum choice 'cause the ball didn't go the required 10m or, as Barnes reported, there were 2 players only fractionally(?) over the line as he kicked and they protested?
If the latter was the reason, should we assume that international refs only consider applying 'm' for scrum put-ins?
iii) Murphy caught the ball seemingly on his 22m and was about to kick when the ref. shouted 'taken back in'. He then paused and appeared to change his mind regarding the purpose of his kick.
Why should the ref give him prior warning which may've deprived the opp.
of a LO from where he kicked it.?
