While the North Queensland Cowboys still ran away with last night's game against the Manly Sea Eagles, they may feel slightly aggrieved that they didn't add another try to the scoreline.

A 'push' by Kane Linnett on Jamie Lyon in the 50th minute saw a perfectly legitimate Lachlan Coote try disallowed – and commentator Andrew Voss was not happy, claiming the touch "wouldn't wipe the maggot off a chop".

NRL fans weren't shy in sharing their thoughts on the dive either, many claiming he deserved an Academy Award for his performance.
