Scenario:
A Maul forms in the field of play , [and for the purpose of discussion involves 4 players from each team]
Without there being any evidence of a knock-on the ball is dropped to the ground [or is placed there by a player ] and remains under the feet of the players who had been participating in the maul.
The original ball carrier has remained on his feet as have all other maul participants.
Law 16 says 'A Maul Ends and play continues when - the ball is on the ground.
so, what is the state of the game now ?
