Dark Elf Runner with Wrestle...He has the ball and is the target of the blitz. He targets the attacker with the pass and if accurate, he MUST try to catch the ball.
Now, as the rule is written, the attackers turn can not end if he drops the ball. However, if he catches the ball and the wrestler brings him to the ground...that is a turnover right?

Yes that would be a turnover and risky as all hell as a play to attempt.
I mean ... you are assuming that your player is going to get knocked down if you are doing that play ... its the only reason I can think to do it.

Well...if the opponent is an elf...he might have to burn a RR to NOTcatch it. 
Take that Strip Ball Wardancer! |

Or, the defender can go right for the ball without moving any of his other players...assuming a forced turnover and then scoop and score. If he rolls a 3+ then we both go down and his turn is over...I'm not hurt...I get up and pass the ball away.
I know...more than a little jank, but I wanted to see if it was legal. |

Thankfully he'll be in at least one TZ!
Also if he catches the ball you've only got a 3/36 chance of being able to use wrestle - he doesn't even need to knock you down now, just a push, no follow and off he goes... I'd take those odds |

| And since that's only a 3/36 chance of being wrestle'd down, you'd save the RR for it too. |

Yep...I looked at the Wrestle skill again and saw that too. I just thought my ramblings were already so obviously wrong that everyone had tuned out by now.
Thanks for seeing it through though...my embarassment is complete.  |
