    They still won though, remember when all else fails an ugly win is still a win and we can only manage that with the help of a blind TMO.

    I must be misinterpreting the rules but the o gara try against Italy, the ball went back, hit his leg and then he put downward pressure on it...how is this not a try. There was no knock on and there was downward pressure which is exactly what the tmo was looking at. He had no doubt it wasn't a knock on, just wasn't sure about the downward pressure.

    Your right. The ball went backwards from his chest, then it hit the tacklers leg and went forward a small bit (but since not off O'Gara not a knock on), then ROG got downward pressure.

    In fairness it took me until the highlights on the Beeb after the Scot v SA match to be sure this is what actually happened because in real time and on the first few viewings it didn't look like a try.
