Sitch 2: Foul is after horn goes off, but before ball is dead, and 3rd ends. Report foul, A's ball to begin 4th.
Am I reading this right? There's really no difference in handling this in reference to whether the foul was before or after the horn?

Why would there be any diference in these two situations? THe horn doesn't end the period when a try is in flight. As long as the ball is live you can have a personal foul.
(Now, I
might have an issue with calling a push foul not on the shooter when the ball is in flight on a try. I don't see a disadvantage to the defense, yet. That is,
depending on the amount of contact, hold your whistle on a "rebounding foul" until you see if the contact might have caused the offended team to not get the rebound. In your situation, since the horn sounded, there was no rebound to get -- thus maybe no disadvantage and maybe no foul.)
