Yes, the clock started a little late. It doesn't move until the thrower catches the ball, when it should start upon contacting the opponent's back. However, the timer did a decent job as he actually starts the clock prior to the Trial chopping. The Trail doesn't attempt to chop when the ball is thrown into the opponent.

I'd say the timing error is at most 0.2 seconds. That would have made the validity of the try extremely close to call.
