Message: [QUOTE="Anonymous person, post: 2430400, member: 2115"] leading with the foot is illegal in the NRL now, but it seems that it must not be in State of Origin as they go by different rules iirc. but if leading with the foot is legal in Origin, why was Thurston penalised and NSW awarded a penalty try in 09 for it? thats what i dont understand - they got the ruling 100% right, but noone seems to be mentioning the fact that youre not allowed to kick at the ball? anyway, good to see Hollywood back the refs up on all but the smallest of the "controversial" calls. theres no doubt that Bird lifted above the horizontal though, it was plain as day. good hard tackle? yep. legal by the rule book? nope.
