The only caveat Tigers fans have would be if the vision is not in sync... which given the AFL is not out of the question.
 
that is incredibly gracious of you. but call me a pessimist, but i don't think the hawks are gonna win it this year. i just have a feeling...

Oh but you have a swans guy on ur profile pic though?

Because he knew he missed…he would have watched it off his boot and known.

Same reason none of his team mates were interested either.

Yeh but for those who know sport. It's not like Michael Jordan stopped to apologise and threw the ball to Karl Malone in shame because he might have pushed off on Bryon Russell(which he didn't, technically), to take the game winning shot that won them the championship. We're talking about inches, not metres, and in sports, when you're representing a club and it's fans, and you are the primary scoring forward. You sort of should make it look like you've scored in that scenario to play the percentage, especially when it's mm differential.

That's the context. The psychology of believing "It's a goal", means that Arc might not have bothered to question it at all.

The tigers didn't have a winning means everything mentality in the last ten minutes of the game.

I took that personally.

ha yeah, it's misleading sorry. that's a swans fan in the background saying 'how the f did that happen?' while raising his arms, yet the arm on the right hand side of the pic is langford's after kicking one of the most ridiculous GF goals of all time. it's really a beautiful wtf moment.

Ball didn’t go over the post. That’s the ball BEHIND the post that comes from a video someone took in the crowd. Did they even use ultra edge?

Over the post - send the commentary team back to year 9 trigonometry and this controversy would've been nipped in the bud.

Having said that, I'd still be shitty if I were a Richmond fan. The AFL need a budget greater than $10 for this potato-ass review system so that fans can have confidence in it.

Popular thought but it didn’t go over the post at all. That’s why they have umpires call and only overturn if definitive. Lynch didn’t celebrate as he lost the ball in the lights and wasn’t sure.

Umpire’s goal call was correct.

I assume they had ultra edge and didn’t use it as it was assumed to be ‘over the post’? The reason given for overturning the decision by the ARC is the ball was ‘over the post’. It’s now 100% clear it never went anywhere close to being ‘over the post’. The ARC took 8-seconds for the most important decision of the season when they’ve often taken a minute for decisions in H&A when the game had a 10-goal margin.

It’s genuinely amateur hour…. what did the ultra edge say?

That's why the ARC invested in technology so they can see the flight from three different camera angles simultaneously and go through those cameras frame by frame.
That's why the ARC team are dedicated, because they get training in how to use that evidence to determine with absolute certainty as to where the ball is in relation to the goal posts.
It was proven to be a point, no amount of hand-wringing and wilful ignoring of the hard evidence on your part is going to change that. You can either accept that and move on or forever dwell in self pity and a bitterness borne from denial of facts.

There’s a video in this thread clearly showing the ball 100% did not go over the post. Did it hit the post as it passed on the inside ? Don’t know. But it didn’t go over it which is what the ARC said.

Who needs mathematical facts when you have blurry arse iphone pics I guess.
 
The last time I remember a furore like this was the Ben Stokes non dismissal at Headingley.

At the time and still periodically the whole saga was blamed on Paine and Cummins burning Australia’s last review but in general the blame has been laid on the umpire who incorrectly gave Stokes not our leg before wicket.

Rightly, while the system was criticised in the aftermath and Australia’s use of it was too, the overriding message was that the umpire made a mistake and the incorrect decision was given, and unable to be changed and it still gets brought up 3 years on.

Had last night remained a goal, once more the decision would have been incorrect: wouldn’t that be a bigger injustice than arriving at the correct decision but using the system wrongly to do it?

But no-one knows it was incorrect. The ball 100% did not go over the post which is the reason given why it was overturned. I’d come to terms with it as I thought it was a point also, so whilst they didn’t follow correct procedure the decision was ‘probably’ correct…. until the video from the person in the crowd showed it didn’t go over the post and Lynch not celebrating is because he confirmed he lost it in the lights and didn’t know if it was a goal.

Watch the video from the crowd and you’ll see it didn’t go over the post as people have assumed it
did.

AFL need to install 1662116277986.jpeg on top of the posts and whenever the ball passes through the

the ball explodes.

Ah but it did 100% go over the post.
Maybe the curvature of the earth confused everyone, some clearly think it's flat.
 
Chief. When you say "pole" instead of "poll" are you just being checky

If the ball is behind the post in that shot then the arc vision is impossible. Even if they are out of sync. Do you get that?
