Message: [QUOTE="Super Freak, post: 2620989, member: 8536"] It wasn't a penalty. This is the offside rule. An offside player is placed onside if: (a) an opponent moves ten metres or more with the ball. (b) an opponent touches the ball without retaining it. (c) one of his own team in possession of the ball runs in front of him. (d) one of his own team kicks or knocks the ball forward and takes up a position in front of him in the field of play. (e) he retires behind the point where the ball was last touched by one of his own team. It applies to taps, as well. I believe the only time an offside player can't be run onside is when they are offside at the time of the play the ball. For example, Australia had a try denied against USA when DCE scored because he was offside at the time of the play the ball. [/QUOTE]
