And what happens if it is straight up but in the wrong hand, are we going to swap hands over head and look like a Sunday morning CAR or sweep the hand down, swap underneath and then put it back up in the correct hand, like a first year Supply League Assistant? Either way it's better to agree before the AR raises the flag and lessens the chance for crossing or undermining of the team's authority.
In that case, the flag is held directly downwards with both hands awaiting the referee's lead. Better to go a little slow and be accused of not being able to make your own mind up than shooting from the hip and making yourself and the referee look like numpties who can't agree on something as simple as a throw inI was thinking of situations where the ball is only just off the field of play and the assistant flags but doesn't know the direction.
That's what comes of only reading the shiny bits of p4 (miss)'s post
Correct
