Autopsy AFL 2022 Second Elimination Final - Lions v Tigers Thurs Sept 1st 7:20pm EST (Gabba)

[SammyRoo]

In the words of Doug Mulray -

….“It rated its **** off! “

 

[Rabish Binney]

umpire is literally under the ball and called a goal. was not bang-on evidence and a farce

Maybe point the finger at your stupid defenders who (all 4 of them) couldn’t manage to kill the ball over the line in that last goal.

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Dimma is gonna punch the goal review footage through Brad Scott’s front door and when the neighbour asks what’s going on he’s going to ask him to jump the fence so he can show him how weak he is

 

[ptrg]

They’ve told us before that the cameras are perfectly synced up.
Therefore with 3 seperate angles, you can precisely pinpoint the balls position in 3D space.

happy to argue that till the cows come home (as it’s pretty much my job knowing this)

edit: they probably should go a step further and use a version of Hawkeye, which is incredibly accurate when tracking actual ball flight (as opposed to predicted flight after an impact)

What do you mean? Collingwood have lost three grand finals due to poor umpiring decisions. It's already happened.

only 3

 

[Ginnieboy]

Easy to say 'that shouldn't have been overturned'...

But the real story is 'how did the goal umpire pay that in the first place?' Was clearly over the goal post and a behind.

Right decision prevailed in the end.

Disagree with “clearly”, should have remained a goal IMO.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

I honestly believe he had NFI

I reckon he absolutely shat himself and just called the first thing that came into his head.

 

[windyhill]

I still don't understand Lynch, barely misses, in fact arguably didn't and doesn't even celebrate to make it look like it was a goal ..bizzare and lost them the game. No doubt, Baker and Maurice kicks were poor as well. Also, they brought Dusty back on too late in the quarter.

They butchered the last five minutes in the end.

Doesn’t he normally go around the corner in those situations ? He’s good on his left !?!?

 

[Soggy2112]

I honestly believe he had NFI

If you freeze the screen at the moment the ball crosses the line he’s at full speed with his head tilted just scrambling to get a view

 

[Ricketz]

How can you tell the shots aren't with the ball over the goal line already?

The same way they do those LBW decisions in cricket.

 

[Stottzy]

As it was only the moron umpire thought it was a goal I doubt it

Lauchie Neale just said he thought it was.

 

[MEGABUCKS]

Great win by the Lions. No ruckman, no worries.

 

[ChristianBoy]

This is going to sound a bit ridiculous but to prevent any doubt in the future, why not have one of those heavy duty laser pointers sticking straight up into the sky off the top of each post?

Why not just follow the rules. If the video is inconclusive it’s umpires call.

Why did they just cheat?

 

[Andyy]

Lol wouldn’t wanna face us, tiger fans all said.
Hahaha, lions were cooked. Useless tigers!

Well they won it in the last minute and looked dead in the water.

I doubt they were glad to play Richmond at any stage during the game until there was about 15 seconds left.

 

[demondavey]

What do you mean? Collingwood have lost three grand finals due to poor umpiring decisions. It's already happened.

Not to the extent where I think it’s something absolutely blatant. The last two years have been so bad.

 

[darcytiger]

Only have ourselves to blame, too many stupid mistakes.
Nankervis tapped or handballed it to Neale about 15 times.

I’ll be buggered if there was any evidence to overturn that goal decision though. They gave it about 10 seconds of thought too which was weird.

Also, we were just making up the numbers with Prestia out for the rest of the finals anyway.

 

[Perth Cat 11]

Absolutely cheated out of it

Is there a rule that Richmond are not allowed to be paid holding the ball in a final?

[FRUMPY]

Then have a blanket rule that if the umpire has no idea and the video rule doesn't lean a particular way, then it is ruled in the forward's favor?

And there it is, a dumber comment again

[fnerd]

I have been saying this for years, there will be a GF decided by the umpires in a big moment, and that’s what it’ll take for the AFL to address it.

AFL is the most unprofessional ‘professional’ sport going around.

There already has been…2016

 

[Always Ballin]

Dimma later tonight at the hotel

That's the thing, he obviously knew he missed, hence no celebration.

 

[Rod Stroker]

So now what happens with the Flag? Apparently Richmond have already won it, do they have to hand it back?

You can't lose to the worst team of the last 3 years and expect to win the flag.

Ralphy sh

umpire is literally under the ball and called a goal. was not bang-on evidence and a farce

meh. You had the rub of the green by a country mile. Alls well that ends well

 

[DamoESP]

Until we see definitive evidence that it was clearly a behind their will be corruption in the game.

There was clear evidence, Tom Lynch's reaction
