      Yeah, you're bloody right ... well offside. Problem was, the Ref had his back to Leamy, so he didn't see the offside. And the touch judge wasn't level with the kicker so he didn't have a good angle to view the offside player. Typical.
      Either way, still an AVERAGE try. Try of the Year? ... No way.
