allowed Springer to play the ball again and bot give a knock on

Watching last nights game Toronto I don't think, actually played the ball all night. I know it's a common method these days, but I can't recall them actually touching the ball with their foot at all.

It was nice to see the half backs getting an opportunity to play behind a couple of forwards who were going forward.

It was Tauati, and he never made an attempt to get up etc. So even less reason to give a knock on.

What was annoying yesterday was that Springer had got to his feet, played/dropped the ball facing the wrong way and it was 7 seconds after the hit he blew.
He blew AFTER Springer had already done all of that.

Now if were going down that path, expect to see players knocking on at the play the ball and then getting injured to negate the knock on.

It may be a bit harsh, but any knock on BEFORE the referee blows his whistle has to be a knock on (or a penalty for the tackle, which last night it wasnt).

This is bang on, it sometimes seems unfair but that’s what the rules state.

i got a new phone yesterday, got it out the box and had it on me as i went to a meeting straight after lunch, while i was in there it started making some notification noises, needing updates and stuff, i hurriedly farted about as the bosses were looking at me, trying to put it on silent.

Couple of minutes later it started emitting:

'Don't call me shirley, dont call me shirley'

I got it out of my pocket, turns out i'd put it on Airplane mode.

I thought it was going to be Steve Hesford who you'd offended, and was ringing back to chastise you.
