This is a weird law interpretation imo.

Am I right in thinking that when someone charges down the ball albeit from a Drop goal or a Kick out of hand that it is not classed as a knock on even if the ball goes forward ??

Imo this is a bit strange because the ball has hit some ones hand and gone forward of of it ??

Anyone else agree with me ??

No, it's always been the case, we wouldn't have beaten the All Blacks if that law was not in force. (Do you remember that).
It's not always about where you end up, it's about how you get there.

But can you see where I am coming from that the ball does actually go forward

If we want to debate semantics, why is rolling maul legal when all the forwards are in front of the ball carrier?
