The problem was, it wasn't clearly grounded. At no point can you clearly see the ball in contact with the grass. It's almost impossible for it not to have contacted a blade of grass, but if you can't see it, you can't overturn the on field call.

@@michaelmoynihan9591 ….Mate, I went back to my subscription replay and looked at the TMO process again this morning to check myself and there it is, as plain as fuggin day, in HD, on a big screen, a ball touching the grass, in the in goal area, in the Possession of Ardie. I have no idea what grouping of pixels that the "no try" muppets are using to make their calls but, it doesn’t match the good oil, at all and I doubt the TMO was watching it on something crappy either. The blatant bad call is enough of a weird one but, to have a clumping of Mr Magoos that reckon they couldn’t see it either, just raises that eyebrow up even further. The video evidence does not match the TMO’s call, nor the clumps of white cane walkers. Also, a hand under the ball doesn’t mean far-call, if it doesn’t hold every part of the ball from being grounded. This is some made up law that the Magoo family keep including as if it exists, it doesn’t. Held up, means held up off the ground enough that the ball doesn’t make contact.

[@biggest23]

Doesn’t matter if there’s 15 entire Brumbies under the ball, if the attacking player retains possession and the ball touches the grass in the in goal area, it’s a try, cut and dried. The only reason Ardies try wouldn’t be a try, is if that hand had stopped the ball touching the grass altogether, which it categorically, clearly visibly didn’t. Hurricanes absolutely robbed by dubious match official ruling and there will inevitably be a bit of a rark up behind closed doors for that TMO.

[@martindormer2116]

@@biggest23 The ball categorically was not grounded. There's a wrist (not Ardies) between the ball and the grass. Show me a pic to the contrary and I'll concede he scored a try.

[@biggest23]

@@martindormer2116 ….It doesn’t matter if there’s ten defenders wrists under the ball, as that’s not what defines a ball being held up. A ball is only held up if the defender’s actions stop the ball touching the grass, while in the attacking players possession. The replay clearly shows the ball touching the grass, meaning it wasn’t held up and it was still in Ardie’s possession. It was demonstrably a try and the same video the TMO watched, clearly shows that. I’m a Saders fan, not Canes and am genuinely fuggin appalled at how outrageously dodgy this is. In my house we replayed and paused it many times to check ourselves and, it’s as clear as clear that it’s a try.

[@Formakiwi]

Great game, really competitive, like it should be. So, so hard for Ardie there at the end, could've gone either way had the video been any clearer. But Brumbies deserved it, they were tough, skillful and resolute, and should provide the Chiefs a serious contest next week. Possibly controversial opinion: Roigard and Cameron should be in the wider All Black squad, possibly ahead of Christie and MacKenzie. Roigard's quicker and tougher than Finlay, and Cameron, though he doesn't perhaps provide the highlight reel fodder that MacKenzie or Mo'unga might, is an intelligent game manager and a reliable goalkicker, the kind of strategic 10 that the ABs have missed in the past few seasons. Damian has been a standout in Super Rugby this year but his erratic performances under sustained defensive pressure from the Reds in two ganes and his tendency to run laterally rather than take the ball to the line don't augur well for the international stage. If the Chiefs get over the line in the final it'll be pretty hard to argue with, but if not then an honest appraisal of different players and the qualities they bring to a team, as opposed to their flashy heroics, should be front and centre in the selectors minds.
