The main issue I have with the goal review is that the AFL refuses to spend the money on it. They won't put the cameras in the right spot in the goals or actually spend the money on HD cameras. Instead they stipulate the tv stations have had to pay for it to happen. Of course they aren't going to spend a lot of money when they already pay the AFL for the rights. We know the AFL has the money, but they refuse.

Yep, they get billions in TV money, but refuse to pay for high speed cameras on the goal line so we’re left with potato quality footage with which the score review has to try and make a decision.

I know right. They make huge money off TV rights and they remain the world's biggest tight asses.
