So Togo, one assumes you'd be happy for England to score a winning try after an English knock-on that the referee happened not to notice in the heat of the moment. That's just an illustration of the mind-set of the fans who booed the 'no-try' decision. Broken laws need to be penalised, not overlooked.

Stephen Michael Jones is a Welsh former rugby union player who played primarily at fly-half for Wales and the British Lions said.
"England wins over the All Blacks are so rare. That is why yesterday’s decision not to allow what would have been the winning try by Sam Underhill will go down as a travesty.
Before the nuts and bolts of the call by Marius Jonker, the television match official, we should beware: if the play before a touchdown is going to be called back for possible offside at rucks then every try will have to be examined. Rear-feet offside is pandemic in the game, and it is almost certain that at the rucks and mauls yesterday, Courtney Lawes was the only player all afternoon who actually did stay onside.
The defending team at a ruck can only move across the offside line the instant that the ball is lifted off the turf. Television helped us out yesterday by freezing the frame after TJ Perenara had clearly lifted the ball, by plastering a vivid yellow line across the field to represent the offside line. Lawes was still onside.
At 6ft 6in, Lawes is a considerable athlete. He did not have to cheat to be in a position to make a chargedown. In fact, his discipline as he moved sideways to the side of the ruck was impeccable. He looked up briefly to see if the referee was happy with him, and although Mr Garces is at liberty to tell Lawes to go back, he did not. Total injustice."
Think his judgement is worth more than yours.
