when saints play those last 2 trys by saints were miles forward..

i dont think anyone cares

When penny ""scores" in the corner and the ref overrules the touchjudge...

Was it Benny who threw the most forward pass in the history of rugby league tonight?

The Wilkin one was pretty hard to call by the ref but the Burns one was funny. I can only assume he thought it was touched by the Hull KR player. Good professional job by LMS, you never know what the ref is going to do.

Commentary on WireFM said that it was the most forward pass they'd ever seen.

Also, referring to our game, you must get 10 mins in the bin for a professional foul on a Thursday night (Salford v Widnes) and not on a Friday night like in the first half. Refereeing inconsistencies do my head in!!

Saints forward passes have been allowed since SL started, up there alongside there "defensive line speed".

Watched the saints game this morning. I don't understand why they can't use the cameras for it? Sure if it is a 50 50 give it to the attacking side but if saints had got owt out of that game it would have been a sad night!

We used to go to the video refs for forward passes, but, they were in the days of the two cameras high up on cranes (like the ones that they use at golf). As soon as they stopped using the cranes, the video refs were not called on forward passes. I can only think it was a cost issue.

That was a shocker. Refs now ignored at least three against us this season (v Saints and St. George as well). As soon as he blows for that sort of penalty he's got to be reaching for his pocket. Don't have a clue why it's not happening.

You can't use the cameras as different angles will alter how the human brain perceives direction. GPS tracking of the ball is about the only way to do it. One good idea I had once was if the ball was thrown forward it exploded. Think of the entertainment value alone, it would be incredible viewing. And I tell you what, there would be far fewer forward passes.
