1:29:15 is surely always a turn. A pick call doesn't affect offence throwing the disc away?

[@MC-pp7kc]

Before the throw, so both teams have to agree that play wasn’t affected to override the “disc goes back because play stopped” rule

[@squidge903]

It probably should have been, but the Ring player was not being particularly fair in saying that the pick call impacted play. Jack Williams turned away at the exact moment he threw it - it had nothing to do with the pick call.

@@squidge903 but fisher might have tried to rescue it if not for stopping play to call the pick

[@daroldhopkins4163]

@@squidge903 i thought that clapham sliding catch was out earlier in the game too, so perhaps it all evens out

[@tristanmercer6413]

@@squidge903 yea that's my feeling. Doesn't seem "reasonable to assume" one of your own players "may" make an extraordinary play. I feel as though maybe the 'did not affect' rule for picks should - for the most part - only apply to the intended receiver and their defence.

1:48:45 zesty ah walk

[@daltonsteinkamp384]

1:23:41 This call bugs me. There is very slight contact before the mark. If you want to call foul there that's fine. But don't continue to throw through the mark that was at the release point first and then call foul.

[@philippethirion88]

Clearly a foul. Throw is affected by the arm hitting the shoulder while throwing. Even if slightly, still a foul. He just has to stick with it. The mark’s are always playing too close. In AUDL, that is called by the refs 100% of the time.
