must say i had always wondered about that seeing a lot of kicks going close to going over, didn't know about the ball having to touch the floor first for it to be classed as a drop goal

Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.

Quite. He said "thanks for the clarification". Not "thanks for muddying the waters".

If the ball must bounce for it to be considered as a drop goal, wouldn't that be a knock on?

I seem to remember McGuire a few years ago having a drop goal crossed off for that very reason.

No, otherwise every drop goal would be given as a knock on. In RL intention is everything, if you drop the ball with intention of performing a drop kick then it's play on, if you drop the ball while intending to retain possession then it's a knock on.
That's why it's not a knock-on when players allow the ball to hit their body from a kick off for instance.

Wasn't that the try at Wigan where he knocked on then kicked it?

I'm going to come right out and say this: how is it possible to watch rugby of either code for any length of time and not know this?

I've never heard it mentioned, I've never heard anyone talk about it, I've never read the rule book end to end.

Take your pick. If I didn't know I didn't know. I asked a simple question and received a simple answer. There's no need to be an @rse about it,

I thought it was very common knowledge, extremely surprised to see people not know it

I'm very surprised too. It's one of those things I just thought everybody knew or would have picked up on when watching games and seeing drop goals on TV etc.

IIRC they said after the game that the try should have been awarded.

I think in that case it should have been play on as he was intending to kick it, compared to (for instance) the Saints try disallowed v Leeds this year where the Saints player dropped the ball onto his leg with no intention to kick it.
