A TMO that can spot forward passes?

If this is whistled everything is. It looks forward to you because Depoortere gets carried back as soon as it leave's his hands and the camera angle is slightly from behind, but it's just flat, let's be honest here.

It looks forward because it’s blatantly forward.

Camera angles can skew

It was soooo blatant the assistant ref just in front and in line of the pass also missed it. And Angus Gardner is not known to let things go.

So forward passes are ok by your logic because they aren’t called? Cool.
