"Forward pass!!" : Sun Jun 12, 2011 1:36 pm  

I wonder what odds I could get on the Ref for next Thursday actually spotting that Liam Finns long floated passes to the wing usually go forward 5 yards.

It was one of those passes that undid us last time .....forward a mile(even by the Fev fan sat behind me) try scored , lots of questioning of the refs competence by the players ; shortly afterwards the Refs had enough and Penky is marching of the field yet again for petulance.

Everone who is going get ready for the shout "FORWARD a mile!"

Just one thing that Fev did in the last minute of that game to score was the long kick over to chase with our fullback up flat on a scrum . Sometimes wonder why we dont give that a go with the speedsters we have. ie from our srum deep in our half ,Patterson long kick , rob or white must have a 50/50 chance of scoring .
I remember it used to be a planned move for Dyaryl Cardis the year he was on fire.

We used to do that a couple of years back when we had Lee Greenwood on the wing. its not really a hard play to shut down though is it.

If you think forward passes have sneaked into the 13 a side game, you should go watch the 9's. At times its more like American Football.

Gareth Hewer is the Ref on Thursday he might do

Unless that's sarcasm, I totally agree. He'd be in SL full-time if it wasn't for his proper job.

At least we haven't got whistle happy Constable Laughton, which will make the game a spectacle at least.
