  • If forward passes can’t be determined from camera angles, how can offsides? Just a thought.

    I don’t support either team, but that was a terrible, terrible 5 metre forward pass, missed by lots of officials. I would be a little pissed as well if I was involved with the Eagles, and a little sheepish if I was at the Eels. As it is, I am just a little astounded.

  • That was a good 5 metres forward. That is pretty bad. I don’t know why the third ref can’t check forward passes.

    If it is a depth of perception thing, what is the difference between a forward pass, and an offside? And especially in that case, you had lines to help you see just how forward that pass was.
