Quote: Conroy "The ruling on a knock on these days seems to be that if you mis handle a pass then it's a knock on regardless of which way it goes. TBH I agree with it. I bet most coaches would put it down as an error.'"
I can see that, we don't want the ball being fumbled about round players' ankles for 5 minutes whilst someone tries several times to pick it up.
My concern however is that interpretation of a law shouldn't go as far as ignoring it. Change the law.
