Yeah, AFL, looking at these decisions tomorrow is really going to help adjudicate today's game.380K views · 2.3K reactions | Were the Roos robbed? | "It should have been a 50-metre penalty – that's as basic as it gets."

Does 1 cancel out the other? 1 runs over = bad, 2 runs over = play on.That unpaid 50 after what they have paid recently is mental. Probably the most egregious over stepping the mark of not 1 but 2 players, that Ive not seen paid, insane.
Unfortunately just an umpire not being big enough for the moment. That gets paid 100 times out of 100 in the first three and a half quarters, and gets paid the other way around too.
Very late whistle go back and listen for it. Its not a mark until the whistle is blown. The Pies players couldn't instantly stop when they were running at full pace but they did stop when the whistle was blown as quickly as is humanly possible. Was poor umpiring in that the whistle should have been blown half a second earlier. If you feel it was 50 for running over the mark I can see that angle as well. So very lucky for us to get the 4 points.Does 1 cancel out the other? 1 runs over = bad, 2 runs over = play on.
Otherwise no idea
Jimmy's parody of the AFL's explanation is on point. The score review is just so, so bad.LMFAO.
Umpire in perfect view watching Quaynor throw the ball.
The game is cooked.
Yep, but apparently all good, according to Pies fans in this thread.LMFAO.

Clear touched but strangely given a goal.

CFL have blood on their hands.
Enough is enough you cheating campaigners.
He’s running backwards away from goal when he takes the mark and continues in that direction behind his mark.Looked like he played on to me. Wasn’t running particularly fast and took multiple steps once he took the mark.. the whistle didn’t come either until much later.
Either way he was able to play on untouched which with 30 seconds left would have been what he wanted to do.
I don't even care about the missed frees.
But WHY THE **** WAS THAT TOUCHED GOAL NOT CALLED BACK?!
Behind his mark? He was running inboard toward the corridor.He’s running backwards away from goal when he takes the mark and continues in that direction behind his mark.
He’s looking to try and go inboard quickly which is denied by 2 players running well over the mark after the whistles been blown.
It’s an extremely straightforward 50m penalty that I’m sure the AFL will confirm it should have been paid.
He's continued on the same path until the umpire blew the whistle to pay the mark and he immediately backtracked instead.Behind his mark? He was running inboard toward the corridor.
I think a 50 was warranted but let’s at least describe what happened accurately.
The two Pies players also visibly respond to the whistle. Scott sneaks off whilst McCreery has his back turned to the play trying to establish where the umpire set the mark.He's continued on the same path until the umpire blew the whistle to pay the mark and he immediately backtracked instead.
The same excuses for McCreery and Sidebottom playing to the possibility of it not being paid a mark has to be applied in the same manner to Scott. The difference is only 1 of the 3 players played to the first whistle paying the mark.
You mean like the free given to Xerri in the 2nd who almost flopped over the fence because the wind pushed him?
They only reacted to the 2nd whistle and only then to turn and question the umpire. Never once did they attempt to back track the 5m they were beyond the markPlay the whistle is what you are taught. It wasn’t blown and when it was they backed off.
