No bounce plus no separation equals a TRY

I think Jorge scored a fair try.

Reasoning is he had control of the ball to start with and was in the process of losing control but had not lost control yet. At what point does one lose control is the question?

For those saying no try what would have been the ruling? No try knock on (even though there was no knock on before hitting the ground)?

If the had been an offload he still would have had enough control to get the ball away just not full control to hit the recipient on the chest.

Where the application of the rule went wrong was when players were regathering kicks and not getting full control before grounding.
 
Why do they look at incidents in slow motion?
All replays should be in real speed. It's how we all watch things. If it looks like a try in real speed it is a try.
When you slow it down frame by frame there is almost always separation as a player touches the ball down.
In real time this looked like a try. In slow-mo it doesn't. But the on-field ref ruled a try which, at normal speed, it was.
