So... Here's the definition....
[FONT=fs_blakeregular, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]When a player loses possession of the ball and it goes forward, [/FONT]or [FONT=fs_blakeregular, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]when a player hits the ball forward with the hand or arm, or when the ball hits the hand or arm and goes forward, and the ball touches the ground or another player before the original player can catch it.[/FONT]
[FONT=fs_blakeregular, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The definition makes a difference between being in possession and knocking the ball forward. While he's available to tackle, he's not "in possession" for a knock-on. What I mean by that is.... [/FONT]
[FONT=fs_blakeregular, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I'm running with the ball. The ball slips out of my arm/hands and I drop it (forward). Can hit anywhere on my body and still be a knock on. Hacking at the ball with my foot doesn't count. Conversely to this, I'm receiving a pass, I've knocked the ball forward but up, I'm attempting to gain possession, but this is good enough for a tackle. But the tackle Law and the knock on Law are different.
For a knock on all that needs to happen is the ball needs to hit my hand(s) or arm(s) and go forward and hit the ground, post (inc padding) or another player. This is what happened here, put simply. The ball was knocked forward by red, the it hit blue when he played it. Like I said, if you judge it was a deliberate Knock On the PK that, if not it's 2 Knock Ons, penalise the first.[/FONT]
