    The incident during the recent WBUC women semi-final universe point opposing France to USA really showed that issue, not only because of the fast-count but the numerous marking infractions at the mark before the French scoring throw and the stall-out call, too hard to identify and call under such pressure. This is a rule problem that has to be addressed imho.

    We’ve got to note that the defender is no longer illegally positioned when the disc is released by the thrower (as the thrower is no longer a thrower), and the defender may feel like they’re covered by 18.1.6. I feel like OP raised a good suggestion as it may look like a loophole and that’s easy to argue around that during a game. Of course 1.2 applies there but I think this particular situation should be precised so that any player reading the rules has a clear understanding that this is not possible.
