Yeah, when our player was going for a one on one strip, that doesn't count as a tackle / attempted tackle. The ball is live and needs to be considered live so that the 'contest' can continue. The refs were right to not call held, because if they did they'd be disadvantaging us and our right to attempt the steal. Then when he successfully kept the ball he should have ran with it instead of playing it.

I audibly laughed when he played it, like I knew straight away he'd done the wrong thing even before the penalty was blown. These guys are literally paid to commentate Rugby League and were scratching their heads.

Same, it was obvious.
