The Irish were cheated, no doubt..

Yes I am talking about Henry's handling of the ball. He admits his part in the travesty of justice, but none the less, I don't think the protest of the Irish are going to be heard. Why? In the opinion of the referee, the handling of the ball did not happen and as a result, the goal stood the moment the referee restarted the match with a kick off.

Henry says the referee was at fault. To a degree he is correct. The referee missed it and therefore he got away with it. Just like Elizabeth Lambert got away with pulling the hair of an opponent, even though it was caught on camera. However Lambert was disciplined by her own college and rather harshly (as it should be). What punishment is Henry going to be dealt with? We'll just have to wait and see. Though I have one piece of advice for him. You want to admit you cheated, fine, but wait until the dust settles.
