In Reply to: Here is my two cents worth on the issue. I rewatched the last posted by traprh on December 22, 2024 at 21:41:14
… his wrist was hit not just hand), his forearm went down. But if that foul is inclusive in the “hand = the ball” rule, then that’s an awful rule, and I don’t believe that it does. Wrist is not hand. He got it at least on the wrist. And, from behind. And the part of his hadn/wrist that was hit had no contact with the ball. I believe the hand/ball rule is about the hand being in contact with the ball.
I just can’t see any scenario where that was not a foul.
