Yes it should if your hand is under the ball as Halls was it will always be 100% a try.
Massive sour grapes from Saints and Hudds shocker.
sorry but Hall's fingers weren't under the ball, far from it, there might have been some part of halls hand(certainly not his fingers) touching the ball but that was contentious in itself, even under the current rules if a no try had being ruled nobody would have being surprised because we all know it was a no try.
The rules certainly do need changing, not to say in 'full control' because that in itself is difficult to determine but as shown by Hall's try and plenty of others merely being in 'contact' to the side of the ball should never be suffice to award a try, a fingertip on the upper part of the ball would IMO be suffice to give a try.
Removing the referees on field try or no try would be a start to making the rules more sensible/logical
