It's OK Marshall clarified it for us. Apparently the Tahs defender was already "committed" and "didn't really drag McNicholl down".<br><br>
And there I was thinking he was tackled without the ball in a try scoring situation. Thank fuck we have Marshall to explain. -

<p>Might be cynical, but knocking a ball back to your try line isn't against the laws of the game.</p> -
<p>Read is unimpressive with his decisions at the back of the scrum.</p>

Some good D by the Tahs, but weight of possession and we score<br><br><br>

<p>He is saying a deliberate knock purely to stop it going wide with no intention of trying to catch the ball is a deliberate knock, just that it went back, and was asking about the rule</p> -

I know what he is saying, I just cant understand his logic, should it be also considered if someone jumps for a kick off and slaps it backwards with no intention to catch the ball? As long as the ball can be passed backwards, a slap backwards should not be considered as anything else than that. -
So we get 5 minutes to see the Crotty/Havili midfield combo. Thanks Toddy.......<br><br><br>
