I'm not too sure. Looked like he got a handball away fairly quickly.
Yeah possible I guess, it's a bit obscured by the non-shepherding teammate, but if he did get the handball off it was until after he'd taken the tackler on

Agree with a bit of all of this. The shepherd was pretty average, especially that they didn't work out to rush a point between them when they were 2 points up. The call seemed a bit quick to me if he did handball it, the vision on AdelaideNow was a bit hard to see, but happy for it to be HTB if it, am Bays, if it wasn't a proper disposal seeing as he tried to get around the player.
