Surely the high tackle has stopped the try?

[stanton]

Is that not a neck roll ? 

[Mark Connolly]

There's another penalty advantage there, that should be a yellow even tough the try was scored

[Detournement]

Brilliant. 

Played our way back into it. No knicker wetting.

What a response to the French wonder tries.

[Dunning1874]

He doesn't ground it but it doesn't matter; the illegal tackle prevents the try so penalty try, yellow card.

[stanton]

Should still be a warning from the ref to the French 

[Snobot]

That’s better

[honestly united]

great try from Darge, if we can keep ball in hand we can win this

[D Angelo Barksdale]

Love it when the game is reffed on just vibes.

[Dunning1874]

Would have been nice if we could have started playing before giving up two tries, but this is much better. Now they need to maintain this rather than going right back to coughing up penalties.

The high tackle has prevented the try, that's a yellow and a penalty try

It was explained after the Cowan-Dickie card in the Calcutta Cup game. If the player commits an offense (e.g the high tackle) then the referee has to remove the player from the equation and ask if a try would have been scored - I think it would given how close Price is to the line and the fact that the French player who holds up Price is the one who commits the high tackle.

That said, Darge is having some game.

Karl Dickson must be raging that they gave him a top that is the right size, rather than his usual two sizes too small

[Snobot]

Darge is having a stormer

That must have been a really handsome and eloquent poster that explained that
