This game was only 7-2. Didn't have nearly enough guys there, and we knew we'd be against it from start to finish. Going to be a better game in 5 weeks time.
I was playing and had a direct line to the tackle which happened (though I was busy thinking about what was going on around me) and the Lobbans player did indeed make it to the ball first. The Akal player was the one who was marginally late to it.
Wasn't going to comment or anything myself...
