"Whether there is a definitive answer or not, it'll have nothing to do with us signing Pezet. He was only available for 2026. He had already signed with the Broncos long term from 2027."

"I highly doubt the eels will take him back but they won't let him play for another nrl team for the next 3 years, he is going to have to find a home in rugby, he has made his bed so must now sleep in it.

Both are tries. It is simply momentum. If a player is running forward fast and passes the ball the ball will always go forward compared to a stationary line. Difference was linesman in the Parramatta game was running in opposite direction hence his view was incorrect. The linesman should always be moving in the direction of play. Hence they see the momentum. They must ignore the line. The linesman must feel like the footballer and they will then understand when the pass is forward. The best way this can shown is the player receiving the ball stretches to get to it. A good pass will land in there lap.
Both tries.
The vast majority of Rugby League commentators are like the modern game itself, corrupt to the core! They like the NRL and referees see what they want to see and turn a blind eye to anything that even remotely resembles truth or common sense. There is way too much big dollars in the modern game and unfortunately the love of money corrupts anyone it touches like leprosy.

You didn’t pay attention when they taught Newton’s first law.
The ball travells with the player in his hands at the velocity of the player, when he passes it flat out of his hands the ball leaves his hands and initially continues forward at the same velocity, it also starts to fall under the effect of gravity. The effect of air pressure does reduce the forward component of the balls travell. If the ball if not caught it will hit the ground at a point forward of the initial release point, if the winger catches it, he will catch it forward of the release point, this is not a forward pass.
Next time you are in a car as a passenger, take a tennis ball with you, as you pass a pole try to ping the ball at the pole, if you throw it out flat, you will miss the pole.
This is not an NRL conspiracy, it’s just physics.
I agree , in the old days before all the cloudy rubbish they’ve tossed at us about the ball traveling forward after being thrown flat ( I won’t call it thrown back because whenever it’s thrown back it usually lands flat ) blah blah. It used to be if the ball floats forward that’s a 100% forward pass . This crap about it leaving the hands etc is just another rubbish rule to assist the referees in deciding the outcome . Like 2nd rower said , no matter how fast you are running if it’s thrown backwards to start it doesn’t land 8 meters in front . These guys are not traveling at 100kmph .
No that’s not correct. A rugby league ball is not “meant to be thrown backwards” A rugby league ball is not allowed to be thrown forward, that’s it. Nothing more. The rules do not say you can’t throw a flat pass.
