Did Stewart knock on?

[stsae]

Yes or no would have sufficed. Anyone got any pictures of the ball on the ground or footage of the catch?

Yeah nah rugby league was the winner on the day.

I got it, it's just not very clever.

I got it, it's just not very clever.

It didn't take an Einstein to figure it out, it really was as simple as 1, 2, 3! It proved to clever for you though as you never got it until it was explained to you, as you are simpleton as 1, 2, 3!!

And yes, stewart did knock it on.

Yes it is, as long as you catch it without the ball touching the ground (which imo it did) or another player its deemed to be caught on the full.

To me, dropping it onto then controlling it with your legs constitutes a kick of sorts, which nullifies any catch. Similar to if a player stuck a foot out and kicked a ball coming at him on the full then caught the rebound without it touching the ground.

I'm sure the rule book doesn't get into much detail on what constitutes a catch outside of simply the ball not touching the ground though so I concede that most refs would make that call
