No obstruction at all as the ball was clearly passed before he ran across the dummy runner, if he had even been level behind the runner then yes a definate obstruction, but not in this case. if you have seen a lot less chalked off then thats the officials fault no-one elses, didnt make alot of difference to the result in the end anyway but you keep reading that rule book you have eh...
You a politician or a advertising copy writer, taking two completely different points and stitching them together. The understanding the rules bit was about playing the ball without being tackled, follow the thread timeline. They were lucky to get the non obstruction try, Bentham has chalked off some very similar tries as VR and as Ref, the dummy runner could have hit the gap but took out a defender. Yes the officials decision, consistency is what we need.
