From Oz vs. NZ 1st game 2017

Referee: "You've got the man not the ball. Let him play the ball"
Did Black 15 violate 14.2 (falling over the player on the ground with the ball) or was he on his feet trying to get the ball?
Did Black 15 have to let him play the ball?
We've been here before but what a great discussion example. What are the odds we all agree? Zero. How could the law be changed (if at all) to remove the ambiguity?
