Try ends team control and ten second count.

Here's the "rules coverage":

9-8: A player must not be, nor may his/her team be, in continuous control of the ball which is in his/her backcourt for 10 seconds.

4-12-2: A team is in control of the ball:
a. When a player of the team is in control.
b. While a live ball is being passed among teammates.
4-12-3-a: Team control continues until: The ball is in flight during a try or tap for goal.

Now ask about a long pass.
