Message: [QUOTE="Anonymous person, post: 2447297, member: 2115"] [b]Re: Round 24 - Broncos vs Storm - Post Match Discussion[/b] lol it didnt appear to go backwards, it did - it was in his arms in front of his chest, then it was down at his waist. the ball cant travel FORWARDS yet go from your hands backwards to your waist. at best, like you said, its gone directly down - hence the benefit of the doubt, like i said. if its gone directly down, but it started in his hands and ended up at his waist, theres DOUBT about it being a knock-on. benefit of the doubt goes to who? i can explain why "every single person" thinks it was no try - although the only people youre hearing are people having a cry because theyre the only ones who are still carrying on about it - it was a contentious decision that could have had a big impact on the game, against the broncos, one of the biggest clubs in the league, and theres no doubt that he did drop the ball. but like ive said a dozen times before, these days everyone seems to see a ball come loose in a tackle and just shout "KNOCK ON!!!!" regardless of what direction the ball actually went. its why i want the knock-on/back rule changed to simply 'lost ball' while a tackle is being made, resulting in a handover. it makes it black and white, no room for argument - if the ball comes loose in a tackle, its a handover. and again, just because "everyone" believes something doesnt mean its right. "everyone" believes that Hodges' try in origin 3 wasnt a try, yet it is by the book. "everyone" believes that inglis' try in origin 1 isnt a try, yet it is by the book. "everyone" believes that Morris' try in origin 3 is a try, yet it isnt by the book. "everyone", in general, is an idiot. "everyone" just goes by what "everyone else" says. not at all. im not obsessed with it, its just the truth. im not gonna say that 2+2 doesnt equal 4 just because you say i keep saying it equals 4. the gillett/taylor thing proved without a shadow of a doubt that you have very little knowledge or understanding of the game of rugby league, or even common sense.
