All this talk of 'momentum' v forward passing reminds me of Bradfords disallowed try against Wigan in the play offs last year.

Went forward but clearly was hit backwards by the bulls player .. :roll: That caused all kinds of arguments with me and my mates.

I see, so you think a try shouldn't be awarded if there referee thinks there is the possibility (however small) that there was something wrong. Instead he should make a decision that something incredibly unlikely happened that none of the officials actually saw?

That's hardly a benefit of the doubt scenario then. Perhaps I'm taking it too literally, when benefit of the doubt, played out realistically means 'quite certain'?

chubbs1981 wrote:you didn't explicity say momentum however your explanation of a forward pass was on the momentum rules. as players are traveling. when i stated the ball could be passed in any manner and directions as it is not in a direction closer to the opposing goal line you said i was completely wrong. and went on to give the senario of a player traveling at 15mph. however in my statement i don't recall actually mentioning the players moving so i stand by my definition


You are completely wrong - the absolute statement that "when the ball travels towards the opposition's line it is a forward pass", is plain wrong. It can travel towards the opposition's line if it goes backwards relative to the passing player.

Nooooooooooooo, not the momentum "rule" again... wasn't there a record-breaking thread on that a couple of years ago, where one of Keith Senior's relatives was absolutely certain that the laws of physics didn't apply within a rugby pitch?






When Hull KR got promoted they said there was only room for one elite team in Hull... how right they were!
