We need four goal umpires, says Sanderson

ADELAIDE Coach Brenton Sanderson has called for the introduction of two goal umpires at each end after a controversial goal review in the final quarter of the Crows' seven-point loss to Fremantle at AAMI Stadium.

Patrick Dangerfield's kick was initially ruled a goal by the goal umpire but the boundary umpire was adamant it had hit the post.
 
"You'd think the goal umpire would be in the correct position to make that decision." Sanderson said.

"Two goal umpires at each end I think is the general consensus across the industry, they can both look up and down the post when the ball is going through."
 
It was eventually sent to review which showed the ball did shave the post but Sanderson said the process took too long. Fremantle Coach Ross Lyon would also welcome change.
 
"Everything's pioneering; we'd still be the old VFL playing in suburban grounds if we didn't try things." Lyon said.
