NRL: The Sydney Roosters have been denied a try after the bunker deemed a controversial obstruction against Jared Waerea-Hargreaves.

The Roosters have been denied a crucial four-pointer in controversial fashion, with a Joey Manu try stripped of the Tricolours due to a shock obstruction ruling.

While Trent Robinson’s side celebrated, referee Adam Gee blew his whistle, calling for a review of Jared Waerea-Hargreaves’ run through Penrith’s defence.The only place to watch every game of every round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League, available on Kayo. New to Kayo?“Hang on a second we are going for the obstruction in field, that was miles away... do they want him to run to Randwick?” Fox League’s Voss asked.

Instead, Warea-Hargreaves was ruled to have blocked fullback Dylan Edwards from sprinting across in cover defence, despite the No.1 being 25 metres from the ball. The decision caught the ire of both Voss and rugby league legend Michael Ennis who was simply shocked by the disallowed try.“Hang on a second we are going for the obstruction in field, that was miles away... do they want him to run to Randwick?” Voss asked.
