Maybe you guys didn't read the rest of the thread. It's not easier if you wait for a player to gain control. And there is no problem by not waiting for a player to gain control.

Since there is still team control when the whistle blows, the ball is awarded to the team that had control at the time of the whistle. What could be easier?
As Ricky said. It's easier when there's "no splaning" Hold the whistle for a bit.
