:roll: you do realise the touch judges are on a live communication system with the referee and the other touch judge and timekeeper and will call "forward forward" the referee then decides to blow or run with it if he believes he has the better angle happens quite a lot! TJ,s also call offside players in the defensive line and the referee again decides if there is an advantage or choose to penalise ,the tj will only use flag for touch touch ingoal goal kicks and foul play so don't expect the flag to raised for forward passes or offside players like football you will be waiting a long time!
Yes i do realise.What i said was that the R/L should make them more responsible for calling forward passes as they are in a much better field position to make that call.
The fact that so many go unpunished means the touch judge in line with play is not doing his job.
