Um, by the letter of Rugby League law, Tallis' try was legit. If the video ref can't see to make a decision, the decision reverts to the field ref, who has to give benefit of the doubt to the attacking side.
The eyebrow stapling was sick, especially when the staple cartridge fell out and remained attatched to De Vere's forehead, made me wince, what was even better was the swinging arm Tallis gave him that opened it back up, mate against mate and state against state (cue Rabbit Ray Warren-esque superlative laden rant on the joys of origin football)
