How can TPN be responsible for losing a lineout when the Tahs didn't even lift someone?
I didn't say he was responsible for losing the lineout Qwerty, I said it was a poor throw from TPN.
The lineout you refer to was called to Dennis and even if he had been lifted the throw was well short of the mark. It was a throw/jump so TPN had to throw the ball before Dennis jumped - all he knew when he threw it was where the jumper was supposed to be and he didn't get it that far - he didn't know that Dennis wouldn't get up. If he knew Dennis wasn't going to jump why did he throw it straight to Simmons?
The responsibility is shared - Chapman because he missed the lift and TPN because he threw it short and as Simmons was in front of Dennis it would have been lost anyway.
