...so you are saying that EVERY blarge is treated the SAME as a double foul on 2 post players?

Yes,

what would you do in the case of the 2 post players getting a double foul? how would you administer the resumption of play?

...so if A1 has released his try for goal, and then crashes into B1...and then both officials have a blarge...are you still treating it exactly like a double foul on 2 post players, while A2 dribbles the ball at the top of the key?

All simoltaneous fouls GO TO POI...nothing complicated about that.

In this instance POI will be jump ball as there was NO TEAM POSSESSION.

I think you are confusing POI with posession arrow. the possession arrow can be the POI. POI means point of interruption. When you have a simultaneous foul you go to the POI and the possession arrow can help you decide who gets possession.

1. Semantic correction.
2. It's not the arrow if the try is successful.

...nah...I get it.

Again...just creating some discussion, so that others might see the thought process.

It is POI...but, some may have thought simply to give the ball back to Team A when a blarge occurs.

As you stated...it COULD be a throw-in for Team A...or it COULD go to the possession arrow...it depends on the POI.

NOTE: I have had two blarges, that I can remember, in my 20 year career...in both instances, we got together and decided one official had the call BEFORE the other.

I know, I know...you will say we screwed it up...so I have screwed up a grand total of 2 calls in 20 years.

Yes, you go to the point of interruption.

I would expect to get yelled at by both coaches.
