Score review process was an utter joke tonight.

[LukeH10]

Even if the ball wasn't touched, should still have not been overturned. The process was a rabble.

Player kicks ball, umpire screams touched touched touched, ball goes through goal, should be paid a point for being touched, nope umpires calls for a review which should not have happened. For example, if the ball is marked by a player instead of going through the goals then the umpire would call play on as he has already screamed touched 10 times. So now we call for a review... The goal umpire then says he believed it was touched also so now we have two umpires believing it was touched. Then we go through the replays. Not one replay gave anything anywhere near conclusive evidence of the ball not being touched so now what should happen is we stick to the original call which was touched.
Nope... We go against the whole process & precedent of what has happened before and call a goal.

Utter joke. Sending a please explain to the AFL.

It was one goal that they system went against us. We lost by two goals.

The score review did not cost us, it was our incompetence.

 

[TradeDraft]

Yep and You can hear the Umps Close to it Yell out TOUCHED TOUCHED.

Then Video Things was really to me Inconclusive.

It is really a waste of time.

Makes a Joke of AFL Games

 

[Baird]

It didn't look touched to me.

Lets be honest here, the afl has a different set of rules for each club. Just happens for us we have to play on the hardest setting.

I did not say it cost us the game. We lost the game ourselves.

 

[PieMan!]

It was very weird the goal umpire didnt want to review it ether he thought it was touched, it was the field umpire who wanted the score review

 

[LukeH10]

It didn't look touched to me.

It doesn't matter. The ump called touched, the goal ump believed it was also touched, there was no conclusive evidence to suggest otherwise so we stick with the original call which was touched.

If the Reviwer gave us a Goal. He be Sacked

The review felt very quick to me as well, maybe because I've been watching the cricket but still.

Embarrassing

Amateurish

No other words really

Well it clearly wasn't touched, but then again I wasn't watching the game with my black and white glasses on, so my eyesight could have been a little hazy.

It wasn't 'clearly' not touched. No idea what you were watching.

What about your hearing? Did you hear "touched, touched' or mcveigh say it was touched?

 

[Magpie Monopoly]

Essentially McViegh thought it was touched, collingwood player thought it was touched, field umpire thought it was touched, goal umpire thought it was touched...

For some, unknown reason goes to a review, in which we get some inconclusive crap and the 4 parties get overturned in 10 seconds.

Didnt cost us the game, but what a load of shit. The score review system is 100% broken

AFL Commision reckons it worked perfectly

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

It didn't look touched to me.

Point being it doesn't matter, if the umpire has already called touched play on, he can not then reverse this decision. The player on the goal line does not need to go for the ball if he hears touched play on.

AFL Commission is full of Idiots

I can just imagine being the Collingwood player on the goal line..

"TOUCHED !! TOUCHED!! ITS TOUCHED, NO MARK, PLAY ON!!!"

*oh boy it's touched.. I'll just pretend to go for this ball then shepard it through*

nek minnit

Oh btw guys, it wasn't touched. Yay Sydney get a goal!!!

 

[Territory Magpie]

We have to ask for a please-explain from the AFL. The process followed wasn't logical and was clearly incorrect. Bloody hell, even McVeigh, who kicked the "goal" admitted after the game that it was touched off his boot. A shambles and a disgrace!

 

[babyJonBourgois]

Was it the same field umpire who made the initial call who asked for the review?

Appalling execution of the review process and part of the reason I only watch Collingwood games these days.

Agree - You can hear the Ump Yell TOUCHED TOUCHED TOUCHED Straight afterwards.

There was no Conclusive Video to say either way but Dumbass up in the Review Box’s says no Goal

 

[esc0bar]

No wonder this game is going down the toilet. Incompetence on every line.
