The touch judge had the perfect view and if you watch closely you see Tuimavave reaching to his left for the ball, Leilua takes a swipe at it, and then the ball is in front of Tuimavave.

Indeed, if he had not risen, he would have been open to being penalised for a voluntary tackle. To suggest the player was lying on the ground when the Raiders p...
