| farcical situation with the lights and the game was very close to being abandoned i heard!
anyway despite not playing anywhere near our best we still had enough to run up 30 points for the 3rd successive game at CP despite some rovers fans claiming it was gansons fault, they look totally lost without dobson and big willie was rather limp last night.

Doesn't need to be, it has to go backwards, so even level is forward.

Don't think he ment it was a great try. Just the fact that Mason put a spooner kick in and it ended up in a try. That's all.

Nothing to do with the ball, it's the hands. Theoretically the ball 'goes forward' numerous times during a game when it's passed. Doesn't mean it's a forward pass.

Nope:
Quote ="The Laws of the Game"FORWARD PASS is a throw towards the opponentsā dead ball line (see Section 10).'"
Quote ="The Laws of the Game"Direction of Pass 1.
The direction of a pass is relative to the player making it and not to the actual path relative to the ground. A player running towards his opponentsā goal line may throw the ball towards a colleague who is behind him but because of the throwerās own momentum the ball travels forward relative to the ground. 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.'"

Exactly. Came completely out of the blue. No one could possibly have expected that unless you were a giddy Rovers fan after a couple of shandies before the match and told your mates the most ridiculous start to the match.

FFS
If you are in the front seat of a car travelling at 70mph and you throw a ball into the back seat the ball has gone backwards regardless of what direction the car is travelling.
If the ball travels forward it's a forward pass FFS

Relative to the ground, that ball will have gone forwards.

If you're in a car I don't think you'll need to pass, straight under the sticks yourself. T-R-Y time!

| So how was your fun time with Hopoate Gutterfax??? lol
Yeah I think we should merge too, we should then let the Lands End Raiders in while Wigan and Saints Merge so that John O Groats Titans can come into the fray. While we are at it we should just do away with Leeds and Bradford all together because with Cas and Wakey we already have too many Yorkshire clubs.
As for the forward pass, I thought it looked ok, seen worse not given.
Rovers were poor as were Hudds for a lot of the game. It is not just Dobson that we are missing but Vella and Newton are massive to our side ticking over. For 65mins of the game we were pretty much still in the game then it seemed our heads dropped and the points went flooding in again. Worrying times for Rovers fans especially if Mason's passport isn't here within the next 3 weeks. To have a fully fit Dobson on the side lines would be an awful thought especially if we are still at 2 wins from 9 or 10 games.
Still Wigan were at the bottom of the pile a few years back but nearly got in the playoffs once Dobson came in so fingers crossed he'll do it for us again!

But if you pass it backwards it's not a forward pass (why is this so hard?)

If, for example, you and I are playing rugby - we're both running at speed and I pass the ball to you and get tackled just after I've passed it. My momentum is stopped/slowed but your momentum and the ball's momentum continues, meaning you'll catch the ball in front of where I actually passed it from and everyone screams 'FORWARD!'. The ball may well have gone forward, but the pass was backwards.

In many circumstances, you can pass it forwards relative to the pitch, and it be a legal pass. Agree?

I understand it. My point was that it sounds incredibly dumb from an outsider's point of view to hear someone from Hull shouting "We all hate Hull!"
