That s*** is paid 99/100 even if it snicks the boot or leg and you all know it
Wasn’t the week prior.
There are two reasons it was a HTB.
The fact it touched his foot means it’s not holding the ball. Umpire was in the perfect spot to see. Just because it didn’t go a meter is irrelevant. A kick is a kick as soon as it touches the foot.
He was also in the act of kick before the tackle hit. Which disrupt the kick. Great tackle but not HTB. Still hit the foot.
Hill was caught, had prior and wasn’t trying to get rid of the ball. correct HTB.
Plenty of better examples of bad HTB calls out there those just aren’t incorrect calls.
