He shouldn't of been. That was an error also. He regathered Gallen's kick, so no breach and he got a territorial advantage. Should of been tackle 1 as well.

I reckon you'd be right there Thresher.
Can't for the life of me see why though. Of all the cocked up and silly rules in the game the zero taxkle rule is one of the simplest because it has a black and white definition.
Que sera, sera.

When I was a cricket umpire we used to use one of those clicker things to count the balls in an over. I can understand how a ref could lose count with the pace of the game and stuff happening all around him.
There should be someone in their earpiece who announces the count

Gordon had little sympathy for the Cowboys after their unfortunate exit, with the Sharks' opening try coming on the seventh tackle.
"I had no idea - I'm not out there counting tackles," he said.
"I suppose I could say I feel sorry for them but I don't really."

That was my understanding of how the zero tackle rule worked and why it was brought in. To protect a team from having a positional disadvantage after an opposition mistake. Back in the day if a scrum wasn't called the team might be working back a knock on mistake from 10 metres from where it happened and that counts as tackle one.
I think the earpiece man can also continually remind the ref of other basic things such as what constitutes a forward pass and that 9 metres is less than 10 metres.

it should technically be a sharks zero tackle. lui dropped it, you could argue it was a drop kick but clearly that wasnt his intention. fifita caught it but was tackled on that spot. no advantage from a dropped ball. zero tackle IMO.
the NRL rule book states that an error resulting in a turn over is zero tackle if no advantage is played or a scrum put down. the refs got that call wrong but in reality corrected it by accident.

Well now that I have seen that head on footage of the incident I have changed my view. Lui did fluff the kick it seems from that footage. Knock on. Zero tackle.
In saying that though, I looked at Gallen's kick to Tate as well and am pretty sure that hitbthe ground first as well so I am also changing my mind on that one. It was correct.
No way Graham tackled Tate mid air early in the second half either. That was a blunder by the ref/s.
^shyte stirring. LOL

One of the biggest pushers of this story has been channel 9. They had it as their second story on their news the other night. They must be filthy that there is no qld teams left.
Channel nine are just idiots. Have been since old man Packer left. Who does election coverage involving an animation of losing candidates being dropped from a conveyor belt into a pool of sharks?! What does that even mean?! And they claim to be a serious news station.
Origin time and finals footy is bitter sweet. It's sweet footy, but bitter because it's broadcast at standard def, full of ads, with largely clowns for commentators.
Rant over and out.
