Intent to get out of ingoal
Never been ruled that way, he grounded the ball it should be a drop out.
Dunno about that...think you're wrong...well hear more about it if you're correct
There have been heaps of times players have grounded the ball and then attempted to leave the ingoal area and had it ruled as a drop out!.
How do you determine intent?
I'd think.its pretty straight forward
Ok how? I'm not being arrogant, I actually respect your opinion on football!
Well you either attempt to.pick up and get it out of the in goal....or planting a hand.on it on.the ground...if an opposition player is a chance at scoring you're probably gonna go safe and ground it but if there's a chance at retaining possession you want to get it out of the in goal....i think they have to rule intent as I said earlier ***a motionless ball could be deemed grounded the moment a player places a hand on it to pick it up and run it.***..physically he does ground it even though he's trying to get into the field of.play
The word probably is the problem when deciding intent, you can decide what the player probably was trying to do, but that is not definite. There are situations where you can't tell what the player was trying to do. for example **a player slips and panics so grounds the ball in the process of falling,** he then realises he has more time than he thought so decides to get out of the in goal. How by looking at it do you decide intent?
Your first scenario sounds quite definite...sounds.like he grounded it...probably
