Okay, it's on! Here we go!!
4-40-3
The try starts when the player begins the motion which habitually precedes the release of the ball.
4-12-3
Team control continues until:
a. The ball is in flight during a try or tap for goal.
The try has started, the ball is swatted out of his hand, it's now in flight. When it's apparent the try has no chance to score, the try has ended. But team control has ended. This is a try that was slapped out of a shooter's hand, not a dribble that was slapped away by a defender. Team control has ended.
Your turn!
