That was solid from Fiji with 13 men for best part of game , well done Wales . Can’t help but think though adding the other 60% of Fiji’s players left behind in Southern Hemisphere would have been different. We shall Wales again at World Cup yet again in same pool .

That try at 9:20 was absolute garbage. Definitely a knock-on

[@jonniesmith9394]

I’m not trying to be annoying I swear. But I looked at it about 20 times before commenting. I can’t see any reason why that try shouldn’t be given. Why is it a knock on? His arms make contact with ball and don’t separate from the ball until the ball hits the ground. There’s no reason to not give it therefore it has to be given. I admit he’s not in control of it but as it’s over the line he doesn’t need to be. The on field decision understandably was a try. So then you need definite evidence that it isn’t. There’s no evidence to definitely say Louis Rees Zammit lost contact with the ball so it has to be a try. The downward pressure in minimal but you can see ball change it’s direction of flight and go towards the ground. There’s no other force to make it do that other than zammit. I understand how we can confidently all say that’s a knock on from a safe distance away. But I feel if any of us were actually refereeing this game this would be a very difficult call. Again I’m not trying to be annoying I swear. If anything I want you to change my mind. But as i stand now I can’t see any reason why that’s not a try.

[@soundscapemusic8980]

@@jonniesmith9394 An identical try was disallowed in the Lions vs Boks series because there was no "downward pressure" and the player was not "in complete control" of the ball.

[@jonniesmith9394]

@@soundscapemusic8980 I don’t remember the incident you’re talking about but if that’s true then I think the laws need to be adjusted in order to stop inconsistencies.
