The FIFA have funded some testing of goal line technology, i think they selected three systems, one being Hawkeye and they have rejected it (Hawkeye), I'm not sure why!

Regarding the 2 'forward passes' (personally I think they were forward, but what do I know?) some of my friends and myself think that you should be able to go the video ref for a forward pass but ONLY if it is the last pass leading to the try.

I think in football they have said they cannot put this sort of device in the ball as the balance of the ball would be affected due to the weight of the tracker/unit or whatever. I reckon if it could be done relatively easilythen the footballers would be doing it already, given the huge financial sums potetially at stake with promotion, relegation, champions league etc.

Apparently next season I have been informed by a young ref that forward passes will be looked at by the video ref but only for tries,as regards touch judges,if they could keep with the game they would be on the field playing the game.too many fossils with flags.

As in the last pass before the touch down? Would get rid of all the arguments and hopefully they could clear up whether this momentum rule is to be or not to be too. But cheers for heads up pal.
