See Rule 6-7-Exception-3:" The ball does not become dead until the try or tap ends when...a foul is committed by an opponent of a player who has started a try or tap for goal before the foul occurred, provided time did not expire before the ball was in flight... "

In other words, the ball is dead when the horn sounds, and a foul committed during a dead ball is ignored (unless it is flagrant or technical). [/B]

Rule 4-19-1NOTE. You left out "or by or on an airborne shooter",if I remember right,which certainly could be pertinent also.

Comments,anyone? [/B][/QUOTE]

I don't think he's an airborne shooter, if the ball is dead before he leaves the ground. 4-1-1 says, "An airborne shooter is a player who has released the ball on a try for a goal or has tapped the ball and has not returned to the floor." If the ball is dead before he leaves the ground, he's not "try"-ing anymore, is he?
