I agree, I thought that Archer should of played on until a stoppage of play (i.e tackle, ball into touch).

But what if Parramatta went on to score a try up the other end of the field?

Would assistance from the video ref be called to adjudicate on the first try attempt by Warriors, and if that was ruled as knock-on/play on, would the Parramatta try attempt then be looked at?

Where should the centre referees draw the line in regard to the right time to blow time off and request assistance from the video referee?
