if a player makes an attempt to block/takes a catch, and significant/dangerous contact occurs after that attempt, and they would not have been able to make the block/take the catch WITHOUT initiating that (significant/dangerous) contact – then that is a foul.
That’s a pretty big difference I think. And it still leaves the question of ‘significant contact’.
Correct.
Although you could really just see this as “significant/dangerous contact occurs during that attempt”, even though the contact occurs after the disc is contacted.
I would love for everything to be crystal clear and for there to be no grey areas. But that’s a very hard thing to achieve. Maybe one day…
