Merrit shoulder charging Jonathon Wright to stop him scoring showed that was the rule
One of the vidiot officials from that game confirmed it on 702ABC radio tonight. He said at the start of this year coaches voted against penalty tries being awarded from shoulder charges. He went on to say that the frustrating thing for them is that it's not widely known or remembered.

ShAndy you were correct.
Strange though the whole shoulder charge rule. It can be a penalty but not a penalty try.
Look at Wolfies one the other night. He seems to drop the ball before he's hit, I understand that can't be a penalty try. But if he grabs the ball before he's hit and the balls dislodged by an illegal shoulder charge over the try line the only logical solution, in keeping with any other foul play rules, is a penalty try.
Makes the rule dumber than I gave it credit for originally.
And makes the rule makers dumber than I ever gave them credit for.
I don't like the shoulder charge rule anyways but why have a 1/2 arsed rule like that??? Makes no sense to me.
