Quote: those were the days "Its a shame SKY dont use what BBC did after the game they put a line on the pitch where the ball was passed from and where he caught it showing the ball went 5meters forward'"
That isn't the correct way to judge a forward pass. If the ball carrier is running forwards at 15mph then it means the ball is moving at that speed also. When the pass is made, the ball still has forward momentum, even when the pass is perfectly flat in relation to the passer.

No, you just don't understand the rules. The laws of physics haven't changed in the last few years.
Try watching the RU video, it may be RU but the principal is EXACTLY the same. Actually, I don't expect you to watch it, but rlhere it isrl if you're man enough to put your hand up and admit you didn't understand (like most of Knowsley Road).

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Hmmm. I'm 95% sure you're trolling, because no-one could be so stupid unless on a wind up, but nevertheless I'll bite.
Stevo's 'momentum rule' is simply referring to the phrase in the RFL Laws stating that the thrower's MOMENTUM means the ball can travel forward relative to the ground, but still travel backwards in relation to himself. It's all about momentum.
Try running forwards at full pelt and passing the ball backwards in relation to the point the ball leaves your hands. You'd literally have to hurl it behind you.
I posted it before, but try reading this again[sizebecause of the thrower’s own momentum the ball travels forward relative to the ground[/size. This is not a forward pass as the thrower has not passed the ball forward in relation to himself. This is particularly noticeable when a running player makes a high, lobbed pass.'"
I don't dispute there were indeed a load of genuine forward passes on Saturday, but that doesn't detract from stubborn idiots who refuse to understand the forward pass laws.

No idea about yesterday , didn't watch it , as for the rule , ok ,if that is what it is fine , I always understood it to mean relative to the ground , having it relative to the thrower just leaves it wide open to abuse , no wonder nobody likes refs
