Sect 40 Art. 2
"......A player is trying for goal when the player has the ball and in the officials judgment is throwing or attempting to throw for goal. . . . "
As I stated earlier, the knocking of the ball loose from players possesion may not be considered a try (and again maybe it is, each play being unique) and therefore when the player regains possesion, may still attempt their original try
As I picture the play in my head, any release of the ball that stays close enough to the player for them to catch it regain control and shoot again before he lands is a pretty good chance that it wasnt a try for goal in the first place and it was merely a temporary loss of control due to the contact by the defender
