Trys or tries ?

[Once Was Brissie Kid]

i'm more troubled by the plural of the play-the-ball.

@LeonardCohen says trys ... now I'm conflicted ... but then .. he did actually sound like he knew what he was saying ..

Edit .. sorry I just re-read Leonard's post ... tries it is ...

Pssssh, Cohen. 🙄

Ok, now that's settled.

On to comprehension. lol



(Thank you for at least being conflicted when you thought someone said something different to me)

I’m a **** speller but it’s a Try & if you score two it’s a double and if you score three it’s a treble.

If Team A scores a Try then it’s a Try, if they score two then it’s Try’s.

Correct or not Tries looks out of place

What an echo chamber! 😁 The rules say tries but I think trys looks better for more than one league try. Also, since when have footy players had good grammar? Even the apparently smart players struggle. I’ve counted Cameron Smith say ‘seen’ instead of ‘saw’ four times in one game.

Did anyone else hear Sam Thaiday the other night when the Dolphins were smashing the Saints 50-6. ‘They don’t need any more points against them and they need to score some points themselves the Dragons’!
That is an incisive comment.
