Message: [QUOTE="Rhys van Beurden, post: 2830536, member: 8317"] You're missing the point. How many times does a player tackle an opposing player who has the ball in hand and make inadvertent contact with the ball in the motion of that tackle? Because in every one of those instances, if the ball carrier just drops the ball, it is a loose carry. This is no different. Just because McGuire hit the ball in doesn't mean he knocked it loose. The onus of holding the ball is on the ball holder, unless the defender plays at the ball. McGuire did not play at the ball, and so by him touching the ball, Wallace loses it, it's already in contact with the defender, and as such, is a knock on. [/QUOTE]
