We were poor in the first half and did'nt deserve a win, the second half improvment was encouraging. Tim Roby was not the reason we lost but he is by far the worst ref i've seen this season, one bloke behind me said we should give him a rule book in brail and i am told that the Radio Leeds comentators asked who was ref today Tim Roby or Sam Tompkins.

What rubbish. When I fly my Lear jet home to tot towers tonight, travelling at 300mph, I will turn off the engine the moment I hit the entrance to my drive. What's the chance of me stopping within my 10m of driveway? Or I might make a fly-by to impress the neighbours; if tigercub is exercising the fox hounds in the gardens I will drop a rugby ball vertically from 100 feet. The initial direction is not forward by the RL rules but I would wager it has more chance of landing in Bingley than my garden.

Not necessarily, the ball could still have impetus & will travel forward as a result. Get in your car, drive it 100 mph at a wall, do not wear a seat belt. I can be fairly sure the car will stop but would be surprised if you were still sat in your seat.

Your hitting a solid object there. I'm talking about a player naturally slowing down as they reach the defensive line to the point they are almost jogging (they've drawn the player). Then throwing the pass. So your example is a little invalid, however your car example could be used for my example 1.

the momentum rule is purely an inaccurate label for what is a pretty complex subject. For example the black and golden showers rule is a label for the fact that you can measure the amount of over-debate of a topic on this forum by the degree of Tigertots p@ss taking.

It's strange how some debates do conjure up a strong sense of dêja vu...but without wishing to be disrespectful, sometimes the statements are sooo daft, and demonstrably untrue, you just can't not respond.
