His heavy fine makes the point that the ref is always right.

No it makes the point that a head coach should be able to behave like an adult in public rather than a spoilt child. Thats our job

Should of been a try no question. But FC need to get over it, poor decisions happen over the season.

I thought Craig Hall was excellent yesterday.

For the benefit of the Robins fans that do not understand what a forward pass is, this is directly from the RFL:

[iThe 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 opponents’ goal line may throw the ball towards
a colleague who is behind him but because of the thrower’s
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.[/i

The pass was 100% backwards relative to Craig Hall's run. If it wasn't, the ball would have ended up in front of him (which it didn't). If the ball went forward relative to the ground (which I can't tell from the TV camera views) is irrelevant no matter how close it was. The ball clearly is backwards relative to Hall's run, even at the worst of angles.

That's unfair. The guy has shown his integrity with that statement. He came out and said he had no plan to stop Cookie and sent his team out to prove it.

I know what you mean. All those other coaches in SL must have amazing gameplans to stop the Stella drinker as thats the first game he has ever scored a try at Craven Park in. If only we had a decent coach

Ey if Cookie was on Stella against you drip feed him it i say, or while you GATESHULL fans are in the southstand near belgium you could buy him some ,

And what do you mean " thats the first game he has ever scored a try at Craven Park" are you thick , you saying Cookie has never scored at CP before you t1t

See I always knew you were a plastic fan





Do you even go to games?

The thing is I've watched the game back twice now, and paused my Sky+ just as Hall is about to release the ball, he's one step over the shadow of the stand, which was parallel to the white line on the pitch, then moved it on, and stopped it when raynor recieves it, he's at least 3 steps past the shadow, and as Hall had stopped running, that takes away the momentum rule, if you try doing as I have, you may change your mind, or you may just carry on calling Rovers fans blinkered, but the blinkers will surely be on anyone who carries on spouting off, without taking the time to check.

And there lies your problem, He had stopped

Maybe you should stop talking now

Thanks for pointing out again that not only do you not understand the rules of the game you also dont understand the basic laws of physics. Your not related to Stevo are you?

Answer the question sunshine about Cookie never scoring at CP , dont divert it

=redDO EXPLAIN icon_lol.gif

Cookie never scored at CP you say??????

He has never scored a SL try at Craven Park, prior to yesterday. You really should know this stuff what with you being a "fan" and all.

Try watching it again, instead of trying to dish out childish insults, he Stopped, the ball went forward, no amourt of crying on here will change that

you said first game not superleague match

Err... no he didn't. He was clearly still moving after he passed the ball, and continued to do so even when Raynor caught it (not that it matters, as momentum will be with the ball during the passing movement, not after the pass has been made).

Regardless of whether he stopped or not, the pass was backwards relative to the momentum of the player AS he passed it.

The only way the ball wouldn't have momentum is if said player was stood still during the pass, which he clearly wasn't. Therefore, the ball had momentum.

And again, no he didn't.

Doh if he had stopped, how can he have momentum

I see that selective reading syndrome has kicked in again. Was I discussing the ability of SL coaches in stopping him scoring at the time? A simple yes or no will suffice.

No he didn't and even if he did it makes absolutely no difference anyway. Pesky things those laws of physics.

As someone who has completed biomechanics at university recently, I can tell you now that you do not understand what momentum is.

And not only that, but Hall had not stopped running.

I'll say it again... the only way the ball would not have any momentum is if Craig Hall had been stood still during the pass. If you think he was stood still, you are watching a different game.

It is irrelevant whether he stopped after the pass.

Oh dear



The momentum is with the ball you doughnut
