It is also quite a strange word to use in the circumstances... scientifically proven! It would have been better had the word geometrically proven or even mathematically proven, but scientificaly proven!!!
Have Sky invented a new science and produced an on-side/off-side litmus paper! 
It has everything to do with Sky wanting to keep the buzz going and the BBC also wanting to keep the buzz going by taking the opposite 'scientific' view.
It was a very close call that could have gone either way, Bentham and Ganson and the RFL did not have it in for you and Bentham opinion on a very tight call was different to yours... accept it and move on! |

You may laugh. Give it a couple of years and it'll be as widely accepted as Einstein's laws of relativity, Planck's constant and Stevo's momentum rule...  |

| Quote DoubleAone="DoubleAone"Excellent work
and the ball was hidden behind Pryce`s right leg (nearest the try line) as was seen on the Sky camera from the reverse angle.
so it is a very fine call indeed and with benefit to the attacking side was the right decision. Some you win some you lose. Just ask Wigan in the Semi-Final

Thats offside in any language you put it. Best team still won. |

Do a perspective correction in photoshop. It is offside but by far less than I imagined e.g. cm. I do think this is one area Rugby Union has a better and much clearer ruling but then I suppose kicking all the time they have to. |

Not the "official" language ie the current rule book...not one that Saints fans have invented to suit their arguement.
Has I keep pointing out on The Entertainers forum the winning margin was 8 points...  |

Causality prevents that '8 point margin' being a reasonable argument.
Do you really think that Burrow would have still dropped a goal? No, of course not.
If the try is disallowed a different set of events would take place - which, to be fair, would probably be us failing to find touch with the penalty and Leeds scoring a try on their next set.
Even so your argument is redundant. |

That sounds about right!
I agree though that had that final try not been allowed things may well have been different. Our heads would not have gone down. We still had a fighting chance and because our heads would not have gone down we may well have found what it takes to score again.
Better still, of course, would have been had Meli not had his first brainfart. That is what really began the rot.
I do hope Meli totally screws up his visa next time around. I don't want to see him in a red vee again. |
