Must admit, I'm somewhat fatigued with these HB debates. I'm in the deliberate brigade, but we only have a few months left to enjoy the good old days. From next season, this is nailed on HB
Already started it.Next time a player appeals for a handball penalty, tell him that it's not handball today but next year it will be and then jog away, leaving a ****storm behind you
Okay, so how are you permitting a defender to run up to an attack that's about to head the ball then deliberately stick his arm out in the likely path of the headed ball? You're in favour of rugby-style chargedowns?You all need to have a hard look at yourselves.....never handball. Nothing deliberate about it...play on
Nope I'm not and that's not what happened here!Okay, so how are you permitting a defender to run up to an attack that's about to head the ball then deliberately stick his arm out in the likely path of the headed ball? You're in favour of rugby-style chargedowns?
Alright, so what do you think happened?Nope I'm not and that's not what happened here!
Hold on, I need more popcornAlright, so what do you think happened?
You're confused. If I wanted it to be Aussie Rules I'd argue this handling was allowed!I think the convicts are struggling with the concept and want to reinvent it and claim it as theirs... a bit like Aussie Rules!!!
It does if you read the considerations about the original position of the arm and unexpected ball stuff.Here are two snaps. Just before the header and the moment of HB. Can a person who says this is not DHB explain to me what is his hand doing there? Can anyone argue this is not hand to ball?

Most deliberate handballs are instinctive (they don't have much time to think about it) but that does not make them not deliberate.
Hehe, being lectured on applying rules from Down Under, they’ve got recent history in incorrectly applying stuff. I think I saw the tape!https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/03/06/article-1256050-0300969F000005DC-379_468x368.jpg
Soccer defence for a Englishman
The same consideration that says position of the hand may or may not be important says hand to ball is important. The two images and the clip clearly show it is hand to ball.It does if you read the considerations about the original position of the arm and unexpected ball stuff.
Hey, not my fault that I come from a country that knows how many yellow cards lead to a RCHehe, being lectured on applying rules from Down Under, they’ve got recent history in incorrectly applying stuff. I think I saw the tape!
No it doesn't. And you still haven't answered the question.It does if you read the considerations about the original position of the arm and unexpected ball stuff.
