Have the video ref make a ruling on forward passes in the try scoring movement.
Not possible with current technology. They tried it when the video ref was first bought in, but it proved impossible to accurately determine whether the ball had gone forward because of parallax error due to camera angle. Granted there are some blatant cases that blind freddy could see,
but the problem is that you can't have them ruling on some and not others.
Weren't they talking about some microchip inserted in the ball technology at some point ??
