So in that case the siren rings.They would continue on and next score wins.
So they should ring the siren in any other case too perhaps? Maybe 3 short honks?

This is from the other thread on this topic. Very good question.
I thought I’d posted about this before but perhaps not.
Its been raised again in the aftermath of the Cricket World Cup Final debacle.
If an AFL final (including a grand final) is drawn, extra time is played - five minutes, plus time on, each way.
However, if the game is tied after extra time... the game switches to golden point. Next score wins.
The problem: there is, specifically in the rules, NO siren sounded if this happens. Play simply continues in the second half of extra time until somebody scores.
With nobody any the wiser.
What the actual fu**?
Possibly the most important game of the year, the game changes fundamentally from regular scoring to golden point... and there’s NO official notice given to anybody that it’s happened? What on earth?
Scoreboard clocks count up.
What possible reason could there be for this?
If it is to be decided this way then for god’s sake... blow the siren, take it back to the centre, bounce the ball, next score wins.
Stephenson lines up from the Gamble Responsibly Boundary Line or as we now call it the Nathan Brown Empty your PocketThey can get al the electronic signage to flash off and on in red to signal the “bet365 golden point” has commenced
Why isn't a rushed behind valid? Is it any less valid than someone kicking it off the ground from 5 metres out after all the hard work to get it there has been done by players up the ground? A score isn't just about how it went through the posts, it's about the team effort required to get it to that point.I'm tippin the golden point will be removed for one very important reason: rushed behind. - this is not the way to win it IMO.
Ideally ET is played until a winner is determined, however I fear it will go to golden goal.

With clubs like St Kilda who always seem hellbent on hugging their oppenents scoreline the entire game rather than simply outscoring them yeah it's bound to happen. And St Kilda will be the club that cause it
What if the ball was in flight and about to be marked by a forward, and then they blow the siren. So it goes from being a mark and having a shot on goal to win the GF, to instead stopping the play and balling it up. You'd be pissed if the other team then scored after that and you lost the GF.I don't mind it, the only change I would make is blow the siren at the end of the 2nd period of extra time and ball it up where the ball was at that moment so both sides are fully aware of when the golden time starts.
What happens if there’s a howling wind to one end of the ground?
Hardly seems fair in golden point
I think it’s a moot point anyway, no player is going to rush a behind deep in ET with scores level. There’s examples of this in the Port v WCE final.Of course it's valid but in this scenario I just think it would be an anti climax IMO.

It's probably why they don't blow the siren, to keep the play continuous.
Surely, they could just flash something up on those huge scoreboards that everyone can see, to indicate that the game has now moved from extra time to golden time, without the need to blow the siren and stop play.

Should do a countback to see which team kicked the most chizzlers
