It certainly looks like the reversers were pulled!

In my company once the reversers are out you are totally committed to a landing as a go-around is forbidden after that point!

Until that point a go-around may be conducted from any point upto pulling the thrust reversers.

They were quite lucky to get away with a tail strike I would suggest!

Obviously I will wait for a METAR before making further ascertations!
