Looked like English guy was NOT in touch when he pushed the ball over the line ( he did, didnt he?) because he lifted his foot up just before he went over the line.

He doesn't need to go "over the line" his foot only needs to "touch" the line for him to be out.

I think it was the right decision.

With that said, I personally hate video ref'ing in rugby and would be fairly confident that with out going to a man upstairs to watch that incident 10 times in slow-mo the touchy and the on field ref would have awarded it.

Thats what the op was saying, he raised his foot just before it would have touched the line so it should have been a try although his knee may have touched the line as he grounded the ball.
