I am sort of confused here...

I see no problem with holding the whistle until you are sure of what happened. However, basing a foul/no foul decision only on the success of the try is wrong. A personal foul involves illegal contact with an opponent which hinders an oppponent from performing normal offensive movements. Hinder means more than to prevent.
