Quins v. Saracens at the weekend.


Ball is kicked (on the bounce) towards touchline


Ball crosses the plane of touch while in the air (i.e. has not struck ground beyond touchline)


Defender leaps through the air (from infield across plane of touch) and taps the ball back into field of play before his feet touched the ground in touch.


Line out was awarded; is this correct? Seems similar to law allowing a player with feet in play to reach across the plane and keep it in (no lineout).
