Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3492558, member: 1899"] My view is that Burgess was never going to score from that position, but by going for the strip he got far more close than he otherwise would have. I thought it was smart of Eisenhuth to attempt the play and if it went infront of a different video official they may have a different view of it. However, I think the rule is intended to be reactionary. If the player has no other choice but to strip the ball in a group tackle to prevent the try, they can do so. Obviously Eisenhuth in that situation didn't have to rake the ball out. An interesting case study none the less and I'm happy to accept the ref's call. [/QUOTE]
