Should probably stop laughing at people for knowing the rules better than you do, hey.

I said there was no rule for incorrect disposal and there is a rule for holding the ball, thought it was clear enough but obviously not for some.
The ball can come out in a manner of ways from a tackle legally not necessarily from a handball or kick.
I reiterate there is no rule for Incorrect Disposal.

The key to it is prior opportunity, if you haven't had prior opportunity you can then fumble, drop etc etc etc the football in the tackle and have not broken any rules. If you have had prior opportunity though incorrect disposal (eg, not a kick or handball) will lead to the ruling of 'holding the ball'

Exactly my point in a nutshell, thank you.
Its irelevent how you get rid of it if you don't have prior opportunity. There is no rule for incorrect disposal in this context.
But there is a rule for holding the ball if incorrect disposal and other criteria occur such as prior opportunity and a legal tackle.
Check out the AFLs rules dvd for 2014, it has a couple of examples of players throwing it, dropping it, the ball being bounced out, etc all legally.

Spot on Wedgie. Sh*ts me to tears when supporters, especially from my own team, start claiming holding the ball in that situation.
Lions and Crows supporters are generally the worst for it in my experience.

yeh apparently a genuine attempt to spoil is looking at the player rather then the ball.

I actually feel a tad sorry and embarassed for him - he struggles to get a kick and when he does it looks like he has never handle a football before in his life. How this bloke is a professional AFL player is beyond me.
