[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 463831, member: 20605"] The "moment of madness" happens AFTER Rougerie illegally kicks the ball out of the NZ side of the ruck. Do you seriously beleive that the French would still have scored that try anyway? YOU must be joking. OK [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o35/smartcooky99/Kaino3.png[/IMG] Here is Kaino, the player in front of McCaw (our view is obstructed by France 17 and the French player beyond). He appears to be on his feet competing for the ball. He's the first man to the breakdown and no ruck has yet been formed. [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o35/smartcooky99/Kaino2.png[/IMG] Kaino is still on his feet, and has moved slightly forward. A ruck has been formed by the arrival of France player whos number we cannot see. However, since Kaino has his hands on the ball already, he is entitled to KEEP his hands on the ball. [TEXTAREA]16.4 OTHER RUCK OFFENCES (b) Players must not handle the ball in a ruck [B]except after a tackle if they are on their feet and have their hands on the ball before the ruck is formed.[/B] Sanction: Penalty kick[/TEXTAREA] [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o35/smartcooky99/Kaino1.png[/IMG] However, in the act of picking the ball up, he knocks it on, and, after waving play-on and playing advantage to give France a chance the continue with play, the ball does not come out, and so Joubert correctly awards the scrum to France. If you watch the sequence from 1:07 to 1:24, after you have read and understood what I have written here, you will see that Joubert was right, and Mr Pink Shirt is wrong. [/QUOTE]
