And those who have played the game of football would know if the ball hits your fingertip, the ball changes course and deflects away

That's just not true and now I'm seriously questioning if you've played the game  :lol.

Also, I'm not sure if anyones mentioned it but you should look at the way cricket uses their reviews. It seems very similar to what you are asking for

Just to irk you fellas a little more (hopefully) here is another rule that happens to only apply to us and not to anyone else.


Anyone want to try and guess how that's different to Jack's "shepherd" last week? Allowed Freo's first goal and probably helped them gain some momentum back

The thing is that even if the goal was allowed GWS would have gone on the attack in the last minute and probably have kicked another goal.

End result = no difference

In fact, the clubs current record under hardwick makes complaining about u pairing all the more null and void.

Reckon Eddie McGuire has the right idea
If it goes through the goals touched , it a goal
Not as stupid as it sounds

90% yes ( although Martin Flanagan and others say it should of been a goal )
But not conclusive
Similar to LBW review at the cricket
E.g. Has to hit middle stump to be out , leg stump not out

Errr no.... poor analogy using cricket. Umpired cricket for a long time. Know the LBW laws back to front, so have to say you are wrong

A batsmen can be out LBW if the ball is hitting leg stump. Just like it can be out if it's going to hit off stump.

If the ball pitches outside leg you can't be out LBW but if it's pitched in line and going to hit leg it can be put. Hell under DRS the ball can be hitting less than 30% of the steps and be given out.

Anyway back to the footy

I've said this a number of times. All goals are reviewed, they don't have to be called for. Review rakes place while the ball is going back to the centre. On Saturday, central ump was told they could not bounce the ball as they were still reviewing. The ball was touched. It's just the way it is

The thing people should be peeved about IMHO is non 50 metre penalty against Cameron not the review

That is just so stuffing frustrating and a perfect example of why more and more fans are getting fed up with the game and losing the passion for it.

If I was at richmond I'd be highlighting that vs the jack one publicly in the media and asking for a please explain

Ah no.

And why not
A ball goes through the points touched and it's still a point 🤔
