The rugger one is this

"A penalty try is
awarded if a try would probably
have been scored but for foul
play by the defending team. A
penalty try is awarded if a try
would probably have been
scored in a better position but
for foul play by the defending
team"

Would have to make the footy one a bit tighter I think
