My best advice is to not look there because that's the T's / C's responsibility. L has rebounding on his/her side.

So, if the opponent gives ground, you cannot displace him, correct?

How are you displacing anyone if that person is moving in the same direction you are?

Peace

LOL So giving ground means something like to back away? I didn't know that was what it meant. Sorry to ask that question.

What is the definition of displacement?

Displace: "To move or shift from the usual place or position."

So in order to have a foul for displacement of some kind, you have to move a person with contact to another position or place. Giving ground basically means you are moving with the person and allowing them to go where they want to. I am not mad you asked the question, just trying to explain to you what this means.

Peace

So, if A2 wasn't displaced, that means that A2 is applying just as much pressure in the opposite direction....Newton says so.

So, who is really doing the pushing? One player wants to move their opponent in, and the other wants to move their opponent out.....or they want to resist being displaced. Both are applying pressure in roughly equal amounts. Only when one displaces the other (or it becomes too rough) does the contact become a foul....and either one could be the guilty party.

Not necessarily, inertia plays a factor, as does size difference.
