[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 910665, member: 20605"] The player knocking the ball to intercept has to have a reasonable chance of catching it, so, assuming that the player in question does not successfully intercept... 1. Player slaps the ball down = [COLOR=#ff0000]intentional knock on - penalty[/COLOR] 2. Player knocks the ball forward or up so hard he cannot catch up with it = [COLOR=#ff0000]intentional knock on - penalty[/COLOR] 3. Player knocks the ball forward or up then gets a hand or hands on the ball but can't regather = [COLOR=#0000ff]knock forward - scrum[/COLOR] 4. Player knocks the ball forward or up but is tackled before he can recover the ball = [COLOR=#0000ff]knock forward - scrum[/COLOR] NOTE: On item 4, it is not deemed playing the player without the ball if a player trying to gain control of the ball is tackled by an opponent. This is now officially allowed under the Laws. [COLOR=#0000ff]DEFINITIONS Possession: An individual or team in control of the ball or who are attempting to bring it under control.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
