That’s where the umpire is supposed to take control of the game. No one knew who’s free kick it was. The umpire failed to take control of the game when it was required.
So……

If the players didnt know whos free it was and just ignored the whistle and kept playing then..

Would it be 50 if it was a pies free?..

Amateur hour, joke of a league. Fitting that this finals series gets decided at the last moment by yet another dubious umpiring decision.

It didn't decide the match. Nothing might have come from it. It wasn't like Brisbane were the better team all day and robbed

Yes, if we redefine what's necessary to win a game of football we can totally declare that critical umpiring errors don't matter.

They don't have to have been the "best team all day", they have to have been capable of outscoring the other team. And with the ball 60 out from goal with less than a minute to play in a one score game?

We'll never know. But by the time they bring the ball back from where it was and get the mark set properly every single Collingwood player would be inside 50.
 
I hope Charlie Cameron is enjoying this all for the second time tbh

Watching this Darcy Moore dickhead is vomit worthy.

It did matter, but it didn't decide the match. A free kick decision 60m out doesn't decide a match

We know that the opportunity was entirely denied to them, effectively ending the game.

Of course it did. The game was balanced, that decision dramatically swung the probability of winning.

This dull need people have to to apologise for the absurd dodginess of this league is beyond me. Do we think they'll reward us if we just accept the non-stop interstate dicking over with good grace? Spoiler: they won't.
