[QUOTE="pagliaccio_euforico, post: 1209554, member: 73648"] I can't find any clarification on it in the clarifications system. The intent only has to deal with the drop. So if you lose the ball forward the knock on process has began and you have to regather. I don’t see any reason why a kick would stop this process. If the Argentina player had backheeled it would it not have been a knock on cause that isn’t a kick? But if you intentionally drop the ball the forward you have started a drop kick the onus is on you to kick the bal. In an attempt to regather the ball how is the ball hitting a foot any different than a thigh, arm, or head? The law book is very clear that a knock on has to touch the ground or another player for it to happen. I see nothing to support that foot=ground in the law book. There is nothing in the law book, definitions, or prior clarifications to support your stance. [/QUOTE]
