[QUOTE="sigesige00, post: 951577, member: 42159"] Why are knock-on and throw-forward fouls? Because of Rugby's fundamental principle: moving ball forward by hand(s) is illegal. However, in opponent's ingoal, "moving ball forward" is meaningless. In opponent's ingoal, moving ball laterally for a better coversion place makes sense, but moving ball vertically is unnecessary. So, the "moving ball forward by hand(s) is illegal" principle does not make sense. Therefore knock-on and throw-forward are unnecessary in opponent's ingoal. [/QUOTE]
