It seems to me that with your approach the row would just appear
and then the effect would apply to the contents of that row.
Why? Without testing it, I'd speculate that when the <tr/td> is
shown, its height would be 0 (or near-0 depending on styles applied)
because the inner div would be set display:none and have no place in
the page flow. The animation would then gradually grow the div and
the <tr/td> would expand with it.
