A lot going on during this play. (Video)

What do you have and how would you officiate this play?



Peace

. . . of many to follow, I'm sure:
"Get the first foul."
The contact at :07 was worthy of a call. That gets whistled and the rest would not have occurred. I don't think.

"Worthy of a call?" I'd go intentional on that, at minimum, depending on temperature of the game. Two forearms directly to the opponents head.

Two person, in the dead corner, in front of a bench. Pretty much the perfect storm for crap like this to escalate.

The T has to get over there and officiate on ball in his primary.

It's a foul at :07, but likely nothing more than a common foul.

That was my instant reaction as well. Absolutely.

The second one was intentional also, but it's too far gone at that point.

That first foul needs to be called. And it's not intentional.

If you don't get it, then there are a lot of ejections for leaving the bench when a fight may break out.

Always listen to Bob! Get the first foul.

Rich:

You are absolutely correct. If you get G1's foul against W1 and everything else is irrelevant because the game is now stopped and nothing else happened.

I think an "Intentional Foul" is justifiable here.

[Camron Rust]

The first is not a passable call...any official that sees that should call it from any position, forget primaries. It is a hard foul, but not an intentional. Call it and the play ends.

After that, since it wasn't called, you have another foul on gold 2 that I believe would be intentional, then a bunch of Ts for people coming onto the floor for a possible fight. I do not see a foul on the player in white.

During camp last year they emphasized that loose balls are not an excuse for a free-for-all and that, if you get the first player piling on, you avoid a lot of grief later.

There is absolutely no attempt to get the ball. He takes both forearms into the player sitting on the floor. This is an intentional foul and like others have said, you get that call and the rest is moot.

Pushing a player out of the way in an attempt to get to the ball happens all the time. That is all that was. You get any call on that and the rest is moot.
