Presumably the top picture entitled mmmm is when the ref ended the game for a Pirate being out of touch??

Sometimes too much to drink is not enough.

It was. But as with a picture of Cattle's non-try against Exeter a few seasons back it still isn't conclusive beyond doubt.

The ball carrier Marika is clearly being attempted to be bundled into touch by three Notts players. The first one certainly ended up on the touchline side of the event. His body angle confirms that.

Looking up from the viewfinder and moving towards the action as quickly as I could given the speed of events. I was certanly convinced that although he ultimately went over the line he had managed to offload to Brian who as you see is moving in too, just in time.

A flurry of Notts shirts certainly added to the difficulty of judging. Given the time involved, if he hadn't he should have been pinged for holding on.

Some you get...and you sometimes see what you want to see.

If you're going through hell...keep going

Good to see the loquacious Luxlad and the lovely Luxlass back on the away trip trail.
Pasties on Sunday, Clive?
