[QUOTE="jaunard06, post: 464042, member: 56207"] Please re-read post #861. If this is not a ruck - which is seemingly the referee's interpretation, then Rougerie's kick is valid as we are either in open play or still in a tackle and therefore your whole claim falls apart. If this is a ruck then there are so many fouls commited by the blacks in that same ruck that we should invent a penalty try especially for it. More seriously, it would have been an immediate penalty kick, and if Joubert had blown every similar opportunity in the match France would have won by 15 points, to be put to the "credit" of McCaw. Now if this still a tackle zone as you claim now - then there is violation of rule 15.6 as two ABs are lying onto the tackle zone and therefore not on their feet. PENALTY KICK. And unlike what you said- but you didn't show the exact moment on your pictures - Rougerie is at the same time behind the tackled player and the ball, so his kick is perfectly valid. On the following video: [URL]http://www.akl.stuff.co.nz/waikato-times/sport/rugby/5837757/RWC-2011-All-Blacks-vs-France-World-Cup-final-highlights[/URL] , at 0:29 we can clearly see the tackled player and the ball, with Rougerie perfectly positioned behind them. And no, I don't believe that the frenchs would have score that try "anyway", neither that they would not have: YOU believe that this so-called foul had "DIRECTLY" led to the try which is a complete nonsense. There are at least two or three situations where the Blacks had the opportunity to contest the ball, at least two or three rucks, and they could have also try to defend their line instead of letting Dusautoir break into it. Finally, if you want a fault that "directly" leads to a try, you should rather look at the AB's player that prevents Harinordoquy to run towards Woodcock just after the line-out starts. This violates Law 19.10: "Holding or shoving. A lineout player must not hold, push, charge, obstruct or grasp an opponent not holding the ball except when a ruck or maul is taking place." THIS directly leads to Woodcock's try. [/QUOTE]
