Manly centre Morgan Harper missed out on what appeared to be a certain try due to a puzzling forward pass call. 🧐 What do you think? Was it forward? NRL 9WWOS
The NRL may have some questions to answer next week after Manly centre Morgan Harper missed out on what appeared to be a certain try due to a puzzling forward pass call.Harper was the recipient of a flick-on pass by Daly Cherry-Evans, but after the centre crossed over to score a try the touch judge ruled the Manly's skipper had committed a forward pass.
"He wasn't even in position!" Cherry-Evans was heard screaming arguing that the referee was not in a good spot to make the call.Replays showed the decision to be controversial, with rugby league greats Andrew Johns and Billy Slater left stunned."That didn't look forward," Slater added."Daly's objecting that the referee wasn't even in position. The touch judge called it and he wasn't in position.
Fortunately for Manly, Storm winger Isaac Lumelume was deemed off-side during the play, which handed the Sea Eagles back possession and moments later, Jason Saab scored Manly's first try of the night.
