[2025 Six Nations] France vs Wales - 31/01/25

[Ragey Erasmus]

Not in the slightest, I'm unhappy welsh players are poor, I'm more annoyed the powers that be are killing rugby on a global scale.

Are you not?

I'm more annoyed at whinging fans who constantly complain the game is "going soft" as you did earlier or other ********. Rugby has various issues but the rules at the moment are pretty good. It went through periods where the rules were far more messy. It's the fact we have the benefit of replays and slow mo to super-analyse stuff that previously would have been brushed off.

 

[dirty harry]

if only world rugby provided a definition for throw forward

World Rugby Passport - Definitions

passport.world.rugby

If only...

When a player throws or passes the ball forward i.e. if the arms of the player passing the ball move forward.

Literally description of that Dupont pass hahaha

 

[dirty harry]

I just wanted to see some small improvement tonight. The welsh attacking shape, sharpness and confidence is still a huge huge concern.

It's Rob Howley coached, what do you expect

 

[ncurd]

You've embarrassed yourself hahaha

How?

Throw forward
11.6A throw forward may occur anywhere in the playing area.
Sanction:Scrum.

11.7A player must not intentionally throw or pass the ball forward.
Sanctionenalty.

So let's be clear here.

You've quoted the wrong law.
You haven't read the definitions.
And claim to be physicist.

Thank **** you don't work for me.

Whinge all you like, just be accurate about your whinging

How I litreally quoted the World Rugby website.....you quoted some words Google told you were correct.

Okay time for ignore you clearly know sweet FA.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Says the person who lied about the rule, then complained a definition didn't exist when it did and has now come full circle to whinge that you think the arms went forward rather than the ball, at no point in the entire process admitting you were wrong on anything.

For **** sake man just take the loss

Really think now it's a confidence issue. At 14 nil you could see the life suck out of them.

I was on the world rugby website and copy pasted from your link hahahah

Try reading!

In the definition of Throw Forward it talks about the direction of the arms not how the ball travels. Ludicrous in my book, but the refs can only ref according to the laws.

France looking bored. They know they've done enough and can press the accelerator whenever they want.

so did valley sober up and become Dirty Harry?

It's the better of two evils. It's an imperfect measure of momentum rather than a law that would essentially prevent you from passing while running.

You're literally the one whinging here. The only whinging I'm doing is about you, and I don't think WR care to hear me whinging about you to them.

and you still haven't admitted you got it wrong. You claim to be an elite player yet didn't know what the law is or how it's applied? Stinks of BS.

 

[Bluemoon]

True, but then nothing to lose here, had possession and some clean front foot ball but didn't seem to have confidence in the patterns or any idea what each other were doing.

 

[Scotty]

What are you banging on about?

11.7 of World Rugby. A forward pass is defined as a pass that moves the ball towards the opposing team's dead-ball line.

Is that the actual wording I'm surprised at that? It's been said by many sources that it is how it come out of the hands. Tbh it makes zero sense. If a player is running flat out how can he pass is back as the ball is travelling with his momentum.

What exactly have I whinged about?

Wales are being beaten by their own fault, a 5m forward pass was allowed that shouldn't have been, and I've copy pasted world rugby's laws lol

 

[ncurd]

Yeah no wing would ever be able to pass the ball again whilst running. So many of the best team tries ever seen would have been invalidated.

The ref, the card, forward passes... This is Trump level denial.
