It wasn't a pass, so why can't he just slap the ball into touch ?Deliberate knock on. Penalty in normal circumstances. Yellow card and penalty try if a try would likely have been scored.Also…..a player must not ” Intentionally knock, place, push or throw the ball with arm or hand from the playing area.”LCD managed to do both things. Therefore, this was a clear yellow and penalty tryThanks. Didn't realise deliberate knock-on applied to all actions, thought it was only for intercepting passes, and didn't know about the second stipulation at all.
