Any precedents for ball hitting spidercam incidents in international matches? Anon, AustraliaThe incident youre referring to was George Fords high kick to the Wallaby back-three in the Sydney Test. The ball ricocheted into Courtney Lawes hands, England forced an attacking position and Billy Vunipola drove over for a try that put England ahead. Referee Nigel Owens explained to both captains that he had made a 50-50 decision to allow play to continue.Such events are virtually unknown - spidercams have only been in use in recent times - but a search through the archives reveals that an incident that occurred in the 1906 Wales-Scotland match at Cardiff is worthy of consideration.At the time, high social status was attached to attendance at Waless matches and even Cardiffs Chief Constable felt it his duty to be prominently seen when games were staged on his patch. He turned out in his finery as usual for the 1906 Championship clash, little realising he was about to play a part in the evolution of rugby unions laws.Early in the game the Scottish forward David Bedell-Sivright led a foot-rush into the Welsh quarter before toeing the ball over the goal line, only to see it rebound off the Chief Constable who was strutting his stuff on the field of play, five or so metres from the dead-ball-line. The Scot quickly adjusted his path and still won the race to touch down for what many believed to be a fair try.In the absence of any law relating to such circumstances, the referee ruled a dead ball on the grounds that he felt the ball would otherwise have rolled out of play. He felt the defending side should have the advantage and so a drop-out was awarded for Wales to re-start the match.There was sufficient controversy in the aftermath for the International Board to draw up fresh guidance. The good Chief Constable warranted his own footnote to the history of the games laws when the Board subsequently ruled that in future:1. If the Referee thought the ball would have gone dead he should have disallowed the try.2. If the referee thought a try would otherwise have been gained he should have awarded the try.3. If he were in doubt he should give the point against the side responsible for the ground.4. All officials and spectators should be regarded by the referee in the same manner as offending players on the home side.Different times, different circumstances, but if there had been spidercams at the time of the 1906 Law changes, then arguably Nigel Owenss decision in Sydney would have been absolutely right.
