[QUOTE="goodNumber10, post: 718619, member: 71068"] Don't agree. Hughes is not on a line to stop North jogging around behind the posts, he's not really even on a tackle line, to me it looks like he's just trying to get back in the hopes he gets stopped short and he can get in on the ruck early. Count how long between north Hitting the deck and sliding to Hughes making contact with him it's well over a second, Hughes is not in shot at any point until after the ball is grounded (including the wide angles), North breaks steps Loz and rides the tackle over, the ball is placed, the momentum of North sliding is finished then Hughes takes two large steps into the tackle area and connects with Norths head. He was never going to make a tackle, he was not going to stop him scoring, ergo he had no right to be there that late after the try was scored. [/QUOTE]
