Forward passes

[Amin Yashed]

When will the NRL address this issue!??

Archer is a complete tool, he's got to go if the NRL want to get serious & address the refereeing standard. What the f**k are the touchies there to do these days? So many games being decided on the back of blatant forward passes. Not that the warriors deserved to win, plus the sharks won on the back of one as well.

Rant over.

Be interested to know how many games this year alone have been decided with a forward pass leading to a try.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the biggest problem with forward passes is the stupid backwards out of the hands rule. If the ball is caught ahead of where it was thrown from then it should be a forward pass irrespective of whether they tried to pass it backwards or not

Maybe worst opinion in LU history. Almost no pass in a fast backline movement goes back

 

[Tommy Smith]

Panthers fans only care if it happens against them

Still, when will Archer come out and say the ref got it wrong like he did when we benefited vs Penrith?

I look forward to his display of consistency on this issue.

That's because they get away with it. It's not impossible to pass backwards while running

Like last night when Feki scored off the gridiron throw??

Well that would kill the game!

It'd be dummy half running all day!

Most forward passes aren't forward at all, if the passer is moving forward. Another hysterical thread!

I do wish we could get some type of GPS in the ball to shut this old chestnut up.

Come on NRL / Archer, do it!!

 

[Amin Yashed]

Agree with both you blokes.

But how can the blatant pass that is a 1 metre plus forward go unnoticed by ALL the officials?

I'm dumbfounded, Archer will come out & make up some bs comment that the refs got it right....again.

Yep. I'm a sharks supporter as well.

Forget GPS. Put a bomb in the ball.

If it's passed forward the ball explodes

Rant over

Yeh, keep the passes to 1 meter @ jogging pace!

Watch a few youtube vids on the laws of physics at least and then think about this

Great idea - should be thrown to some in here.

Haha here we go again...

The rule you actually want is "looks backwards" and "looks forwards".

Come on Tommy is was foward as f**k but it didnt decide the game like yours

 

[Tommy Smith]

Haha love the new profile pic

Still, I just hope Archer is consistent and comes out and calls it forward.

 

[Amin Yashed]

Not saying about the odd pass that looks forward. I'm saying the blatant ones that are obviously forward by a mile.

Background reading

The worst forward passes are the 'Cammy Smith specials' from dummy half.

I can live with the odd forward pass getting missed in an attacking pkay when things are going at a hundred mile an hour.

It's the constant forward passes from dummy half that shit me as they give too much momentum to attacking runners.

But seeing as Smith is referee boss nothing is going to happen about that.
