Brent Harvey Goaline Incident

[Red.White and Blue]

oh-oh another Goal Umpire mistake. Surely its time for a video umpire.

If you missed it the ball was going towards goal and Harvey got a foot on it but it was already over the line. Goal given

 

[PHX]

Was it completely past the "fat bit" when his foot connected with it?

I wasnt convinced it was and the "fat bit" is the new line isnt it?

That said I only caught one replay.

 

[campbell]

Disgraceful. Yet again B1 and B2 at the AFL will say nope, we aint changing.

 

[Upgrayedd]

I was against video umpiring, but we cant have this happening every week

A clear point, The umpire got caught up in the moment and rewarded boomer with the goal, he wont umpire again this season, and Serious questions have to be asked

 

[Chaz Pendlebury]

not even close to a goal, terrible decision

don't hold a strong position on video assistance for GUs but surely between that GU and that BU they could have worked that out. we could clearly to see that boot connect from the side on angle. that guy shoud donate his pay check

 

[Soul_Pie]

Shocking decision. The umpires obviously took Laidley's victim act to heart during the week and are trying to hand North the match.

 

[sexualninja]

atrocious decision....again so blatant and at that early stage of the match if there was any doubt the defensive team is given the benefit.

....however Sydney are beating themselves with sh!thouse goal kicking...barry hall....you'd better hope that the bloods dont go down by less than a goal

That victim act was about tunnelling and not goal umpiring decisions ********!

 

[Upgrayedd]

Someones a little cranky

 

[Paul Kersey]

Disgraceful. That holding the ball against Kirk was disgraceful too. Not that I care about Sydney, to be honest, I'd like to see them lose.

 

[Banyo Bloods]

First goal Hale kicked he dragged it in and scored the free then that one sheesh ! North harder at the ball deserve their lead but I'm so sick of umpiring dictating games.

They've certainly made their presence felt in the finals so far.

 

[seanoff]

telling on replay.

the boundary umpire was backing away for a kick in, not waiting for the decision or going to get the ball for a centre bounce

 

[Brasil2007]

Well that evened it up!

 

[Upgrayedd]

Oh man

Square up's for the win!

Video ref NOW

 

[seanoff]

campbell ripped off

they not having a good game.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Evened up now

 

[JUBJUB]

oh-oh another Goal Umpire mistake. Surely its time for a video umpire.

Stuff the video ump.Just get that goal ump a better guide dog.

Oh wait,the goal ump at the other end has just squared the ledger.Where do they get these goal umps for games in Sydney ?

 

[giantroo]

Someones a little cranky

That campbell one just then ...

 

[Ragnarok14]

wow the umpiring is shithouse tonight....

Not that i'm overly upset about squaring it up but **** me this is shocking to happen within a game

 

[Speck]

Another incident. Goal ump thought it hit the post despite it not hitting (from the replay anyway)! Kangas only get a point in the end.

Bring in the Video I say.

 

[Masten2McKinley]

disgraceful, but i dont want to see a video umpire in it lets keep some stuff to human error i dont want it becoming like cricket

 

[Upgrayedd]

That campbell one just then ...

I think it's the special "square up" rule in play...I think

 

[DeZi]

Its been a shocking day...

Medhurst
Harvey
Campbell

The last 2 squared things off but seriously...we rarely see a mistake maybe once every 10 rounds and in ONE day they have stuffed up 3 times! And this is in a couple of ELIMINATION finals

And as Mingo pointed out Akers one last week...

 

[Mingo]

Jesus this is ridiculous. But it's been evened up now at least...
