[wrexhamfan2011]

that try was a disgrace, it was miles ofside and i'm a neutral

[MrMinimobile]

held in the scum shithole rugby AND football team of leeds went there and brought a win home to leeds

[YZER83MAN]

super league is way soft & slow compare to the nrl in Australia. Thats why Sam Burgess came down under, more of challenge. Always same teams in the finals why is that?. Do they buy all the good players?. is there a salay cap over there?.

Anyways i like any country that plays league, need the to expand worldwide...good on u England....atleast u guys r getting better as a international team......thats my opinon...agree or disagree i dont care.............:-)..........­..

@YZER83MAN is Rugby League the National sport in Oz or is Union?

[elmslie35]

[deginner]

i think the ball brushes leon's shorts thus rendering smith onside

[DoomedQuake]

I'd say the try in the end was offside

[saintbowen79]

Get the rules of rugby league from a Challenge Cup Final programme and it says you are offside if you are in front of the kicker, not behind the kicker. Lee Smith said he was onside because he says he was level, not behind McGuire therefore just like Bentham and Stuart Cummins he must know the rule about offside at a kick.

[adlufc1141]

look up the definition of offside from a kick on wikipedia - the foot that is contact with the ground must be behind/or level with THE BALL not the kickers foot

Smith's foot was at least level if not slightly behind the ball

Was a try

[queensarms]

I think based on Smith's feet that he is behind the kick of McGuire. He is clearly onside without a doubt.

[leedsladtoml]

The song that is played when Eastmonds try goes to the video ref... Anybody know its name????

[joetwizzy]

CHEAT

[Mooro09]

That Smith Try must be the most controversial moment of the year, I was there, but in the North East corner. and until I saw an image and drew a straight line along the pitch from sinfield's boot, i thought it was definitely offside, but the image made it slightly more interesting as it was so tight i'm not sure now

[Mooro09]

sorry, McGuire's boot
