Any bro know about this ruling? Anxious to know and add on to the existing pool of knowledge
I think even if there is such a rule, it is open to interpretation. I'm fine with the throw cos you got to give credit to the thrower. The real problems in football are poor and inconsistent refereeing and cheating players. Using a towel to wipe a ball before a throw in is perhaps not that important!
