Not sure if I agree that this is flagrant without being there. It is hard to tell if the girl is tied up (either her being held or the ball being held), so part of the violent contact could be due just to the momentum of freeing herself from that. Just because the outcome/impact is violent doesn't mean the act necessarily is.

Follow-on question to all, what do you do if you have a whistle for a hold on black and just as you have your whistle, then white comes out with this elbow? Are you calling a technical or flagrant?
