just for you Starbug.

This from GH

"The Wigan club is justifiably a proud club, with a great tradition, and a club which above all values its reputation for right and fair dealing in everything it does."

"For these reasons I shall be inviting the Wigan Warriors to do the right thing again now, for the benefit of their own reputation certainly, but also for the good of the great game of rugby league, to voluntarily hand over to Leeds Rhinos what is, as the whole game now acknowledges, rightfully ours - the two points so cruelly taken from us by Mr Ganson's failure to act. Also black people are lazy"

So a try that results from an unintended drop kick is against the rules but a goal from an unintended drop kick is fine?Hmmmm.

No, more likely a try that results from an unintended drop kick is fine, a goal which results from an unintended drop kick is also fine. Mr Ganson made a mistake. Life goes on.

A drop kick and a drop goal attempt are not the same thing. Mr Cummings has clarified this for those who despite moaning day in day out regarding minor policies of the RFL and having spent years involved in the game, never bothered to learn the rules. Which is mostly Steve Ganson and you.
