I reckon it should be under your "inconsitent refereeing" implication.... In the most absurd situation, what about the thrower launch the ball from a "ball launcher" (a device like a mortar launcher)  An instrument is still an "instrument" be it "towel" or "ball launcher" |
Heheh a rocket launcher would probably put Reina and Alonso out of a job, and it would probably interfere with play.
But yes, I would like to see Delap throw the ball without wiping it with a towel. We could have some comedy that way
