In any case there's no way the touchie can make that call on the run. He should have left it for the video ref, who even with 8 cameras there's no doubt anyone could definitely say he was out.
Great fight back with a very depleted Parramatta team nonetheless, but this decision cost us the match.
For mine he can't be called out. The benefit of the doubt goes to the attacking side. Its inconclusive.

Clearly Out ....in any case a team that lets in 26 points in 33 min doesnt deserve to win
Yep, game was lost with the soft first half. Woke up in the second half but just very sloppy defensively first stanza.
Clearly in, but doesn't change the piss poor effort to half time. That's where we lost tonight.
It's a 50/50 live call but how the hell can the refs go all hawk eyed and pull up that while missing blatant forward passes, escorts and high shots from the dragons all game
If i look at it with my blue n yellow eyes it was in but if i look at it with my normal eyes it was out
The touchie was clearly influenced by Cory Allen who was remonstrating that it was out, which surely is a biased call from him.
This touchie cannot see JAC'S foot since his vision was clearly blocked by Cory Allen who was beaten by JAC and was lying on the ground. Touchie was behind the play and just belatedly raised his flag.
A crazy rule mentioned by Vossy about this was that bunker cannot overrule touchie's decision onmoutside calls whichmis crazy and dumb.
when you say depleted you make it sound like we have 6 super stars out! We have Moses out who is hit and miss and penis shouldn't be in the team.. I question why we haven't made any moves for any players because this crop can't compete.
We were also missing our first choice hooker. Yes, we were depleted. You conveniently missed that bit out.
Mate with the roster we started with in 2025
Lane
Moses
Matterson
Cartwright
Ofehengaue
Simmonson
Sam Tuivaiti
Luca Moretti
Both Penasini brothers and others is may have missed. Who said anything about superstar players. That's a fair chunk of your salary cap already gone there, and the dragons were relatively full strength
My eyes see it as out and correct call from a bloke that obviously didnt see it but called it correctly by guessing. But it would not have been overturned had it been given a try on field. It's that close they would not have been able to overturn it.
