    So do you have to be in control of the ball when you kick it? So a normal kick you'd be in control.

    As an England fan this is a tough watch!!

    The first one was bad but honestly I can not believe that’s been given as a try, absolutely shocking!

    It was, but how is it that these decisions always, always, always, always seem to go in Wales' direction down the years?

    It's clearly not some magical bias and likely is just smarts and knowing how to play the ref, but going in to any game you're almost guaranteed to see Wales benefit from refereeing calls far more than their opposition.

    Bares repeating. :D

    It was forward imo. It went forward off his hand and he was never in control before it hit his leg.

    Thats a wisdom of Solomon decision.

    The ball went off a forward facing palm, but it never momentumed forward, dropped slightly back then kicked back. Its a try and also not a try.

    He touched forward with his hand and never regathered it, a clear knock on, how was that given as a try!

    Earlier I describes the TMO decision to disallow Henderson's try the worst ever.

    Turns out it wasn't even the worst TMO call today.


    Unbelievable

    Both when he dropped it and also the shot when he was smirking when the "try" was awarded.
    He'll be told to work on his reactions going forward!

    Wales really are going to win the 6N through a combination of red cards and questionable refereeing. Gas.

    The interpretation seemed to be that it just went forward against his hip which is no different to catching the ball to your body. And it only went backwards off his leg.

    Interesting law discussion there!

    Dropped it onto his leg though so it's not a knock on? Every kick you throw the ball forward before you kick it.

    It was a knock on. I have absolutely no idea what the TMO and ref thought they were watching

    Wales are bored of getting reds in their favor, they are atleast mixing it up now with getting tries in their favor.

    What do the Welsh fans say about it. I would say they were in shock.

    Exactly.

    Also, the fact the ref called his on-field decision try, rather than just saying we'll look at it, put the TMO in an awkward position.
