I understood what you meant, sorry. My point was that it doesn't matter what you call it. By rule, it's an IW. By rule, you still grant the TO. I've seen guys do exactly what is mentioned in the scrum; accidentally hit the whistle for a TO, realize there is no control, and go with a jump ball and not give the TO.
I've never had this particular IW, but I've had others; just like I used to start raising my hand for a call and had to pull it back down.
Normally, if a coach is screaming for a TO in a loose ball scrum; I'll signal the held ball and turn to him to ask if he still wants it. |
