Quote: Kosh "No matter how much you might like to, you can't ignore simple physics. Luckily enough the RFL realised this a long time ago and so the forward pass law incorporates how the real world works and not some idealised fantasy world where momentum doesn't exist.
If you're running forward faster than you throw the ball backwards, then it's always going to land in front of where you threw it - even if you threw it directly backwards over your head. Hell - you could run backwards and throw it directly away from you towards your own try line and it would [istill[/i land ahead of where you threw it. It really is very simple. In none of these instances would it be a forward pass under the law as it has stood for decades.'"
The RFL really need to educate some of the fans if they want the same old stupid questions to stop being answered.
"Why isn't a forward pass in relation to the pitch?" should be a feature on Boots N All or the Super League Show, as long as it's not answered by Stevo! A few little examples and explanations and it may do a job in stopping the same thing being asked for all of eternity!
