A try shall be awarded if one would probably have been scored but for foul play by the opposing team.

Goal. A goal is scored by kicking the ball over the opponents' crossbar and between the goal posts from the field-of-play by any place kick or drop kick, except a kick-off, drop-out or free kick, without touching the ground or any player of the kicker's team.

A goal is scored if the ball has crossed the bar notwithstanding a prior offense of the opposing team.

A goal is scored if the ball has crossed the bar, even though it may have been blown backwards afterwards, and whether it has touched the crossbar or either goal post or not.

A goal may be awarded if the ball is illegally touched by any player of the opposing team and if the referee considers that a goal would otherwise probably have been scored.

The scoring values are as follows:-

A try.........................................  5 points
A goal scored after a try.....................  2 points
A goal from a penalty kick....................  3 points
A dropped goal otherwise obtained but not
  from a free kick or after a scrum taken 
  in lieu of a free kick......................  3 points
