The judgement was taken away for Federation ball a couple of years ago when they made the change dealing with the Ally-oop play. There is no judgement anymore.

I and most of the officials in my association thought that this wasn't exactly fair but the wording of the rule is that it should be a 3. Regardless of whether the thrown pass was judged to be a try or not.

Edited: 4-40-4 (b) doesn't matter because this was never judged to be a try. This is the "Thrown" ball part of the rule in the scoring section.
