Tripped Or Tripping ...

If flat on back, may sit up without violating.

In forty-plus years, I've only had single player attempt a try for goal from the floor.

Unfortunately, he missed.

I was 1 for 1 in such attempt in Columbia's gym. A fellow student said I should do ads for NY Telephone.

Meanwhile, didn't we have someone here point out that you can't start a dribble without a foot on the floor? But I guess nothing says you have to have weight on that foot; it's not like wrestling rules with supporting points.

Could you roll off the ball to set a pick, like how I set a ruck (illegally, because I never touched the ball in my dive near it) in rugby?
