Did we cop the rough end of two doubtful goal decisions?
« on: March 30, 2012, 07:48:30 PM »
Not blaming the umps for the loss as we were outplayed over the whole 4 quarters, but the AFL website and Ch 7 news tonight both showed vision of Yarran's freak goal where as he was avoiding Morris the ball looked as though it was fully over the boundary line.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/131843/default.aspx

It also reminded me of the decision in the second quarter when Vickery's goal was disallowed for running too far (?) when the replay showed he kicked the goal on his 15th step which is legal. It just wasn't our night  :P.

the yarran one was definitely out.
Vickery's disallowed goal was for holding by nahas when he shepherded, and was probably a correct call

i thought we got screwed by '12 points plays', where we have a chance of scoring a goal ourself, and it went down the other end and some inbred looking carlton flog would kick a goal, at least two-three times.

Probably. No point worrying now. Should have punched out a Carlton mum at the ground and be done with it

Why didn't the video get used on the Yarran one?

Gieschen did say there was no problem with that decision. ::)
Clearly the AFL umpires boss is as blind as the umpires. ::)

No what they said was that the umpires call was fair because it was too hard to tell  or some bs like that, the video clearly shows his foot is out of the boundary line and the ball is well and truly over and stuff me if the umpire wasn't standing there watching, the commentators on the television picked it up immediately and showed it on replay, Giesch thinks he is a stuffing Jedi Knight or something...look into my eyes, he did not step out of bounds....321 your back in the room.

Could argue that the way he was leaning inbound allowed the ball to stay in, would be on the line at best
