You could easily invoke 17.2 (c) and combined with 17.4 - offside at the maul in particular e)
[LAWS]Players leaving or rejoining the maul. Players who leave a maul must immediately retire behind the offside line, otherwise, they are offside. If the player rejoins the maul in front of the hindmost team-mate in the maul, they are offside. The player may rejoin the maul alongside the hindmost team-mate.[/LAWS]
Once a player loses his bind he effectively leaves the maul and must rejoin legally.
