Had this in my game yesterday, I'm comfortable with my decision and wouldn't change it if it happened again but referee coach thinks I have it wrong... interested in how others might have handled it.
Green lineout. I'm at the back of the lineout (I have an AR). It's a shockingly crooked long throw. While the ball is in the air I signal advantage to white and say 'advantage, not straight'. As the ball comes down green back of lineout player steps out of the line and just kicks the ball (in frustration?) back towards the line...at that moment I see that a White player has come through the lineout and collects the ball....what do you do next?
A. Play on (advantage over)
B. blow up for the not straight and offer white options
C. Something else.
