The ball carrying arm hit the floor but the player was not touched by the tackler.

But did the tackler have hold of the legs when the arm was down?? I'm not sure and its by the by now, just curious as to the ruling

The tackler wasn't in contact with the attacker when the ball carrying arm hit the floor, plus it appeared to me that he was still sliding which means that even had the tackler still been in contact, the tackle wouldn't have been complete, as the momentum has to stop for this to be the case.

Some of our defending was poor as well, Chase and McGoldrick simply walked through.

Just one question though, how come Sherwin was taking your final conversion? Were Westerman and Dixon both off at that time?
