J,

I've pointed this out before, but I'll mention it again. I think people get confused in talking about the POI. In FED and NCAA-M, all double fouls (and a blarge is a double foul) now go to the POI. The POI may be a throw-in or a FT, but the double foul always goes to the POI. So you just have to figure out what the point of interruption actually is.

In your case, you haven't given us enough information about the situation to determine the POI. Was there team control at the time of the blarge? Had a try already been released?

If there is team control, then you charge both players with a personal foul and resume at the POI, which is a throw-in to the team that had control at the spot closest to where the ball was when the foul occurred.

If a try has been released, then there's no more team control. So if the try is unsuccessful, the POI is an AP throw-in.

If the try is successful, then the POI is a throw-in anywhere along the endline by the team that was just on defense.

Hope that helps.
