Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3269409, member: 9853"] No, this won't work. If you're a winger running full belt, hit the 20 metre line and pass to your centre who's a foot behind you, he will receive the ball over the 20 metre line. This isn't something unusual. It's routine play. If you're making rules they have to work at all speeds and distances. That's why the ruling is about the ball traveling from the hand, not relative to a line on the ground. So if you're watching on TV, freeze the frame and see the ball being released and received relative to a line, you'll get it wrong nearly every time. Even commentators don't get these simple physics, and that's why they're always shouting about forward passes being missed. Touchies, on the other hand, generally do get it. But, of course, they make mistakes too. [/QUOTE]
