When a ball that has been passed 5 metres forward is not deemed to be a forward pass then there is something wrong with the rules of our game, surely if not a forward pass it would be classed as a knock on? The ball has been thrown to the floor and gone 5 metres forward Lol.

If you watch the youtube clip mentioned it shows an example of a player running forwards, throwing the ball backwards over his head yet the ball still travels 2m forward from where it was released. Its really not that hard to comprehend.

And how hard is it to comprehend that I think that a ball that has gone 5 metres forward from the passer of the ball to the receiver should be deemed to be a forward pass?
If you read my post again, it`s a pop at the rule book not this one isolated decision hence my comment that there is something wrong with the rules of our game?

But by your logic, based on your issue with the law, 80% of passes during a game would be deemed forward.

So by your logic, you saying on average 8 out of 10 passes in a super league game go to the floor and forward 5 meters?

No it doesn’t you just don’t understand the forward pass rule and what constitutes a forward pass in the referee’s view. Just because people think any pass that is caught/lands ahead of the original point the pass being released should be a forward pass doesn’t make it so. I too don’t necessarily agree with it but until they change the rules then it wasn’t a forward pass by what the refs rule by in today’s game.

It's the component of velocity perpendicular to the try line that is important (or parallel to the touchline). If the speed of the ball towards try line is greater than the speed of the (passing) player towards the try line when the pass is thrown then the pass is forward. Otherwise it isn't.

I guess its a grey area when the pass goes to ground though, because then it could be deemed a knock-on, right?
