The fact that this play was allowed even after review is wrong on so many levels

The ball traveled backwards, from his release, maybe a foot tops and spike parallel to his back foot, so it not like it was a clear backwards pass at the moment.

As for the recovery, when the whistles were blown, no one was in possession. it was sitting next to ref, when last arky and auburn guy jump on it.
