Jim S - Bob M. asked the question about penalty enforcement in his post if the kick had been ruled intentional.

========

Rule 8-3-5 talks about a foul by B during a successful try being enforced from the succeeding spot. I could find nothing in the rule book that defines "successful try."

I could also not find where it says that you can apply 8-3-5 to only TD's and FG's and not safeties during a try.

I guess it depends on how you interpret a "successful try."
Does a successful try take place when the result of the try is awarding points to A? Or does a successful try take place only when the result of the try is awarding points to A as a result of their intent to score (2 pts for TD, 1 pt for FG)?
